Page Kits

 Have you ever bought a page kit because you like the paper, but maybe not the layout shown? I am terrible at following directions (lol) my pages always turn out differently.

I used my layout for some family pictures taken at a wedding. The colors match the wedding colors, and I think it turned out great

Wedding Album

 It's always fun to do pages for a specific event. These pages were for a wedding book. This wedding theme was "Harley Davidson" so the colors were Black, White, Silver, and Red. (You won't notice a lot of motorcycles on these pages- but the pages we made for the sign in book all have motorcycles, and the bride intends to put those pages inbetween these in her wedding album)

 It's also fun to see the pages after pictures have been added. This picture was actually taken before I finished the page. I also added a small sign that read " He stole mt HEART so I am planning revenge... I am going to take his LAST NAME"

 Layers are always fun....

 These letters are punched out with a Sizzix machine out of pop cans. (cheap way to get metal letters)

 The "toppers" for these pages were printed... and then cut out by hand to match the layered look I was using.

 The bride and groom are cut from the Cricut cartridge "Paper Dolls- Teen Scene"

 Some of these embelishments are stamps. I wanted to see how much I could dress up the pages without using a lot of pre-made, expensive acccents.

 On some of the layouts I have used blocks to show where I would put pictures, but some layouts are more open. I wanted to leave room for journaling, and anything else the bride wants to add.

Hopefully this gives you a few ideas...

Scrapbooking Homework

My senior was given an assignment for a class in school. He was asked to do a report on the top 10 national parks in the United States. All that was required was making a big poster board- he decided to do something else. Tyler likes to make things out of wood- so yes this cabin is about 2 feet high, and made out of real wood. All of the stuff added to the ranger station for the report is paper. My Cricut machine was a huge help.

Tyler printed a picture and typed up information for each park in the report.

The back of the cabin has a map of the United States with numbers showing where each park is located.

The teacher loved his project SO much she asked to keep it.

Baby Books

 This is a great way to make a gift before the baby is actually born. When I made my first book I decided to do an 8x8 book so that I could type all the writing for my pages, and then save the template. Now I can make more books easily, and just change the colors or accents for each book.

 This book has a lot of the pages you would expect like first birthday, first Christmas, first Halloween (I didn't include the holiday pages) But these books also have pages that you would find in a simple baby book from the store....

 I left plenty of pages for pictures to go with these other pages. One 8x8 books comes with 10 pages protectors, so each book has 20 pages total.That should be enough to cover the first year....

 These pages have enough detail that journaling will be simple. Just fill in the blanks....

I am currently trying to think of a few new pages to add to my design.

Hawaii Style Wedding Album

 Pick a theme and have a little fun with it...

 I got everything included for the wedding, just look down through the pages

 Keep in mind that bigger accents can be cut in half and used for more than one page

 The cricut was used for a lot of the accents, but some are stamps too.

 Notice the background paper was printed using the wedding colors, their names, and the date of the wedding. this is a fun way to add a personal touch.

A fun new Missionary Page Idea

 This is a fun way to remember the highlights of missionary service...

 the number of mission presidents, baptisms, areas served in, companions, etc.

The missionaries were made with the Cricut die cut machine using the Teen Paper Dolls Cartridge. Happy Scrappin'
