Our new products for summer are perfect for documenting those last-minute adventures before the days get longer and the weather starts to cool down. Today, Melissa Mann is sharing how she documented a summer road-trip in her home state! Let’s see what she made.
Good morning, everyone! We are in the throes of full-fledged summer here in hot Florida! I jumped at the chance to create a layout using the Summer Journaling Tags, Summer Puffy Stickers, and Summer Stamp to document a few drives around our fair town and of course, the camera is always taken along for the trip.
I printed a few different photos in different sizes that I have taken in our surrounding areas and trimmed them down with a white border. I layered two pieces of patterned paper from the Live Laugh Love 12″ x 12″ Paper Collection and then layered a piece of white cardstock on top. I pulled a couple of the 4″ x 6″ tags from the Summer Journaling Tags and played around with layering them with my photos. Once I achieved the look I wanted, I started adhering everything down with my sewing machine using white thread.
I used one of the 3″ x 4″ tags from the Summer Journaling Tags to type my journaling on; I cut the end of this card off so that I could tuck it in the upper right hand corner of my layout. I slipped the small piece I clipped off the bottom at the bottom of the layout. I placed my title in the lower right hand corner in a little square created by my photos. The Gray Alphabet Puffy Stickers worked perfectly to create a neutral with all of the color on my page.
I used the Summer Stamp and Love This Life Stamp to add detail around my layout and lastly, I used the awesome Summer Puffy Stickers and Everyday Circle Stickers in various places around my photos!
