Summer Memories Week: Combining Your Kits with Jody Compton

You may have been so busy this summer that your kits have gone a bit… unloved!? Or, you’ve had so much time to create that you have bits and pieces left over from both your June and July kits? Today, design team member Jody Compton is here to show us how perfectly the two kits combine to create one beautiful project. Let’s take a look at what Jody has created: a sweet tag mini!

Hello! It’s Jody joining you on the blog today with a Summer Memories project! I used both the June and July 2021 Kit and several add-ons to create a fun mini album. The Good Times Paper Stack and Adventure Paper Stack had every color in the rainbow that I knew they would make great mini album pages! All of the bright colors were perfect to document our wonderful day at a local blackberry farm.   

Supplies | July 2021 Kit, June 2021 Kit, Summer Highlights 4 x 6 Inch Journaling Tags, Bright Die Cut Tabs, Summer Label Stickers, Jane Tile Alphabet Cardstock Stickers – Yellow, Jane Tile Alphabet Cardstock Stickers – Light Teal Purple Puffy Alphabet Stickers, Acetate Star Stickers, Adventure Paper Stack, Good Times Paper Stack, Summertime Tabs Stamp, Stanley Jr. Alphabet Stamp, Nesting Tags Metal Die

I used the amazing Nesting Tags Metal Die to create the foundation of each page. I love that they go from smallest to largest.  It immediately creates texture and dimension.  

I printed my pictures in a variety of sizes. I also backed them with a little vellum layer.  

The Acetate Star Stickers were so fun to pop around the pages. They added a little color to help move your eyes around.      

One of my favorite products from both releases is the Summertime Tabs Stamp. It has the a perfect sentiment for every summer picture.  

Another top product from these two months are the super versatile Summer Highlights 4 x 6 Inch Journaling Tags. I ran it through the die cutting machine with one of the Nesting Tags Metal Dies, creating a perfect ending page.  

Here’s a look at each of the fun pages of this summer tag mini:
