Every Day Create Project Life Pocket Scrapbooking Layout by Alyssa McGrew

Every Day Create Project Life Layout
Curtsey Boutique Designer
Alyssa McGrew

When I created this page, I knew that I was starting with lots of imperfect photos.  Sometimes I tend to shy away from using blurry photos, but in Project Life, I just go with it and use them anyway.  Everyday life is sometimes imperfect, and the point of PL is to record that everyday life. 

 Next time you create an everyday life layout of PL spread, consider including a few imperfect photos.  Someday, you'll look back and be glad you included them.

Bottoms Up Layout with Alyssa McGrew

Today's 12x12 layout comes from Alyssa McGrew. I love how she uses our pennant labels to build layers into her layout - they are so much more affordable than the stickers out on the market and you can print or stamp anything you like on them.

It seems that Alyssa's daughter has found even milk to be a special treat when enjoyed from a pretty glass.

Project Instructions:

1. Using the muslin bags in the shop spray with some silver color wash. 

2. Layer a doily, some wax paper garland, a fancy silver ribbon, a blue circle and top it all off with a snowflake rosette.  

3. Cut a v into a embossed coin envelope and attach that to the underside of the doily, making it look like a nice pretty ribbon.

4. To make the wax paper garland fold several layers of  wax paper about 2” wide and cut multiple cuts about ¼” apart and using a jumbo zot adhere it in a circle giving your snowflake medallion some dimension.

Altered "Love" Embroidery Hoop by Jenifer Cowles

Altered Love Embroidery Hoop

A quick walk through my local department stores this week revealed that everyone is getting ready for Valentine's Day. It seems scarcely possible with the ground still littered with fire work remnants, but there it is - red, pink and white hearts everywhere.

I thought we'd hop on the band wagon instead of fighting the love avalanche. Jenifer's altered embroidery hoop is a charming decoration to hang at home or give to a friend.

Journey Mini Album with Alyssa McGrew

Remember the album I created for her family's move to Bulgaria?  I finished it!  

That's probably some kind of record, since it usually take me much longer to complete an album.  

I love the way that the tags and envelopes from the shop fit into my album.  They added lots of layers, texture and places for journaling.
