How To Create A Travel Layout With The New Pink Paislee Horizon Project Pad

Hello friends! I have a new project to share using the brand new Horizon Project Pad from Joann Stores! This new Designer Destination line has lots of different designer collections to choose from, with something for everyone's taste. I made a layout about my daughter's favorite city from our first ever cruise this past summer.  I chose the Paige Evans Horizon line because of the beautiful travel and floral elements, and the beautiful mosaic style patterns.

The elements in this Paige Evans Horizon collection are so beautiful! It was easy to create a color scheme and add in the floral die cuts and the bicycle elements to portray our day in Amsterdam. Everywhere we went, there were people on bicycles, and flowers, and water canals. I feel like the finished page gives you the feeling of a day spent in Amsterdam.

You can see the layers of mixed media, then hand cut leaves and punched leaves, and floral die cuts. Lots of layers add interest to the right side of the layout. I added quite a few different varieties of the die cut sprigs, some of them are from the Tim Holtz Garden Greens Dies (#661206). The watercolor splatters extend past the piles of greenery to soften the edges.

I layered the blue mosaic pattern (Paper 5) and the quilt pattern (Paper 12) under the photo layers. Then I added the photo frame die cuts and a tag for journaling under the two photos. Another flower die cut from the Ephemera pack and a hand-cut leaf peaks out from behind the photo frame die cut. The Paige Evans Thickers are the perfect size to add the title below the photo cluster.

I added different stamped phrases from the  Paige Evans Horizon Stamps in blue around the edge of the greenery. The top left cluster has more mixed media watercolor under the die cuts, stickers, and punched leaves. I added the pink florals around the bicycle die cut to add more of the pink color to the top left area of the page. This was a fun page to create, and I loved playing with the gorgeous Paige Evans Horizon Collection!


Thank you for joining me, and happy crafting!

Citrus Twist Kits June 2017 Project 4 | Book Nook

My fourth project with the June 2017 Citrus Twist Kits Scrapbook

Main kit called "Boardwalk".

"Book Nook"  8.5x11 layout using the Scrapbook Main Kit and the Embellishment Kit for June 2017, featuring the Pink Paislee "Oh My Heart" collection by Paige Evans! Love all the embellishment you get in this kit! 

The idea came to me to fold down the top left corner of the page and reveal the cute chipboard books from the "Oh My Heart" chipboard pack included in the Embellishment Kit. These cute embellishments spurred the theme of this page, about the little book nook I have created in our new house. 

The exclusive Citrus Twist Kits puffy alphabet was created by 

Pink Fresh Studios, and I lined the title up under the photo here. The cute sticker sheet from Jillibean Soup has lots of cute, small scale symbols perfect for planner, TN, and smaller size projects, so I used the small heart in between the two words of the title. 

Paige Evans Oh MY Heart washi used to add a little color and pattern near the title.

Thank you for visiting today and jump over to Citrus Twist Kits to see more creations with the amazing June Kits. 

Kellie Stamps June 2016; Santa Barbara Layout

Welcome to my second project with the new releases 

for JUNE 2016 FROM KELLIE STAMPS !

Using the Kellie Stamps "Obsessed" new June release, I filled the page in the Silhouette Studio Design Software, just because it lines everything up faster for me, and printed out the background paper on my home printer. Voila! You have your own patterned paper! 

Then I layered one of the "Funky Florals" cut files, from The Cut Shoppe, because it reflects the flowers and ceramic tiles on the buildings in Santa Barbara. Placed them in a grid to repeat the shapes found in this beautiful city, and used the positive and negative from the cuts to layer. I hand lettered the title and fussy cut it with detail scissors.

Here you can see the Pink Paislee Fancy Free line by Paige Evans paper and puffy stickers used to create more dimension. LOVE this line!

Big Picture Classes Paige's Pages 05 With My November Clique Kits

Loving the new Paige's Pages 05 class at Big Picture Classes!!

Are you taking the class????

 Just love using the November Clique Kits kit for this class! Everything on this layout, except for the doilies from my stash, and the background card stock, came from the November Tapestry Clique Kits. Photography credit: Leslie M. Photography


I used the doilies behind the white Pink Paislee Gold Foil frames from the kit to repeat the open and airy weave of my daughter's sweater. I like connecting elements on the page to the photo this way! I saw Stephanie Bryan use three doilies on a layout some years ago, and went with my own ideas from there!

 The Cedar Lane line by Pink Paislee was perfect to coordinate with the pastel colors for this page, and I used the Cedar Lane ephemera pack and 6x6 paper pad to highlight the three areas of embellishment.

 Here you can see one of the techniques from the Big Picture Classes: Paige's Pages 05. Piled up the Cedar Lane ephemera, and added it on top of the Pink Paislee Frame, with some Ranger Cracked Pistachio ink underneath the doily.

 Love using my sewing machine to add more texture along the frame here.

Here you can see the Pebbles Inc. Wood Veneer Leaves and more Cedar Lane Ephemera, and some piled white and gold thread. 

Of course I didn't copy Paige's class example exactly so that you can take the class and learn from her. She has so many amazing ideas for pages!!

Thank you for visiting today and happy crafting!
