Hey, Elle’s Studio friends! It’s Marsha here today, and I’m excited to share a fun traveler’s notebook spread I created for my fall album! The new Thankful Die Cuts, paired with the October kit and add-ons were perfect for this layout documenting my fall faves last year.
Supplies | October 2022 Kit, Thankful Die Cuts, Chipboard House Stickers, Tiny Autumn Hearts and Stars Puffy Stickers, Autumn Days Stamp, Parker Alphabet Stamp, Hazel Alphabet Stamp
To begin the layout, I trimmed white cardstock to use as the background for my spread. I selected number die cuts from the Thankful Die Cuts to begin the title. Since there were no single zeros in the die cuts, I trimmed the “0” from the “10” die cut to use in the title. I love the look of mixed styles for the numbers! To complete the title, I stamped “Fall Faves” with the Parker Alphabet Stamp and navy ink, overlapping the letters to provide additional interest. Next, I printed my photos and selected the numbers one through five to coordinate with the pictures. I mixed up the numbers to include each style found in the die cuts.
I chose labels from the same die cuts to pair with the photos. The Hazel Alphabet Stamp was the perfect-sized font to add a bit of stamping on each label. I stamped a leaf from the Autumn Days Stamp and layered it over a circle die cut from the October Kit. Then, I selected stars from the Thankful Die Cuts to add to some of the labels. I had fun looking through the October Kit for die cuts and tags with sentiments or icons that would work with my layout. I trimmed a travel coffee cup from a pocket tag and layered it over a die cut number and also added a “pumpkin spice season” die cut along the edge of my photo.
To further embellish the spread, I added more die cuts from the October Kit to coordinate with each photo. I also stamped a heart with the Autumn Days Stamp and navy ink, used a circle punch to trim it out, and layered it over one of the photos. To complete the spread, I added a few stars and hearts from the Chipboard House Stickers and the Tiny Autumn Hearts and Stars Puffy Stickers.
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope I have given you some ideas for using the new, beautiful Thankful Die Cuts! Happy fall crafting!
