Hello Winter with Junell Kruzel

Hello everyone! It’s Junell on the blog today and I’m sharing my latest traveler’s notebook spread I created using the December 2022 kit and extras. This wintery color scheme and snowflake die cuts just make me melt! 

Supplies | December 2022 Kit, Let It Snow Die Cuts, Twinkle Paper Stack, Monthly Numbers Stamp, Large Photo Strip Metal Die

I started off right away by selecting my background paper. The random stars on the pale green paper from the Twinkle Paper Stack was very reminiscent of snowflakes for me, so that’s what I chose.

I also knew that I really wanted to use the Large Photo Strip Metal Die to house my photos. I only wanted to use the green and blue portions of the paper, so I die cut two strips, cut off the red and pink portion of the paper (since those colors didn’t fit the color scheme), and then placed them end to end so that the entire strip was only green and blue. This way I was able to make the paper work for me and my color scheme!

After placing my photo strip and deciding where my main journaling spot would be, I wanted to use the snowflakes from the Let It Snow Die Cuts to create a visual triangle. I used the largest ones to really make an impact and get your eye moving around the page. I just love these die cuts! I need several packs!

I layered on a couple more phrases from the pack to add interest.

One of the die cuts is a mini frame, so I used that to add another photo and then layered it over my journaling tag from the December 2022 Kit. I used a pencil to mark off where it would be placed and then ran the tag through my typewriter for the journaling and then attached it with adhesive. I added the date using the Monthly Numbers Stamp and used another die cut for the title on top of the tag and my layout was complete! 

This is really one of my favorite layouts and it’s all because of the beautiful Elle’s Studio products! I hope you get a chance to document some wintery, frosty moments this holiday season! Happy creating!
