060118 Archi-scraps June Challenge


Archi-scraps June Challenge: use at least two triangles
The travel theme of the photo was inspiring for a page from our 1st trip in our new little travel trailer!


I dove into my May CKC Funky Monkey kit to use my forged paper.


I cut my triangles out of a cut-apart sheet of small squares & fussy-cut the motifs.



For more triangle possibilities check out my Pin board of layouts with shaped photos.

053018 December Daily 2017


It's Christmas at the end of May!


Quick note on the homemade cover - I received a parcel with the perfect piece of heavy cardboard as a packaging spacer,  covered it with sticky back canvas, added Tim Holtz metal corners, and then decorated it! I used large rings inside attached to the binding through eyelets with baker's twine & jingle bells. I covered the inside covers with decorative paper & fussy-cut lyrics to O Come All Ye Faithful from an Illustrated Faith Advent collection paper.

My pages were mostly from the Pink Fresh Studio Oh Joy Christmas collection alternated with plain white or black card stock photo backgrounds. I had a few gold alphabets to choose from along with a juicy assortment of goodies to play with. The pages are 6x10" to fit the book. Although I meant to print at 8x10" and trim the photos, I had a senior moment & printed 6x8", but okay - it's done!

Without further ado...
