October 10, 2016

Our October exclusive kit has arrived and is full of tags, exclusively designed by us, to help you share your stories in your scrapbooking layouts, Project Life albums, cards, planners, and more! October’s kit includes 18 3 x 4 tags, 3 4 x 6 tags, and 25 die cuts! When designing our kits, we love to think of tags that can be used as prompts to help make it easier for you to get your story started and documented, and this kit is full of that and more!

Our monthly kits are limited and once they sell out we will not be restocking. Look for a new kit each month on the 10th at 8:00 am PST, and as a special bonus to celebrate launch day, kits will be on sale for $9.99 for today only, regular price after that will be $11.99.

This month we have also added the option to subscribe (risk-free) to our monthly kits! This addition has been requested by many of you, and with our recent site redesign it was something we were finally able to make happen!

By subscribing to our kit, you will lock in the $9.99 + shipping price of our kit, so you won’t have to worry about missing the launch day special pricing or the kit selling out. And, as a special bonus for our subscribers, any products purchased by USA subscribers on the 10th each month (by midnight PST) will ship for free, along with your kit subscription. Orders shipping to International addresses will also receive free shipping on any extra products added, up to 8 oz in weight (including your kit), that are purchase on the 10th by midnight PST.

Coordinating with our kit this month, and available for purchase separately from our kit, we have a new stamp, autumn themed wood veneer, autumn wood attachers, family acrylic, frosted acrylic autumn leaves and shapes, and a fall/autumn themed journaling tag set.

We also have some coordinating printables and cut files that coordinate with our kit – once you download these files, you can use/print them over and over again!

Also, don’t forget about our new Happy Halloween and ‘Tis the Season collections that we just released last month! And, you might want to stop by our sale section – we just added products from our Let’s Eat and Thankful collections.

Since today is the 10th, that means we also have some brand new inspiration for you!

You’ll want to click on the magnifying glass for a large view of the projects our team has created with all these new items. We will also be showcasing our teams projects on the blog later today, and throughout the entire month!

Documenting Halloween with Meghann Andrew

October 7, 2016

Halloween is by far my favorite holiday, so when I received my Happy Halloween mini collection, which includes journaling tags, wood veneers, acrylic stars and Happy Halloween acrylic in both white and black, I used it right away to document our night of trick-or-treating last year!

I’m quite a traditionalist, so I stuck with black, orange, yellow, grey and white for my page’s color scheme. On the front side of my page, I paired the Happy Halloween journaling tags with several different embellishments, including the Happy Halloween wood veneers, and acrylic stars, Sunny Days bits and pieces, Sunny Days small blank labels, Sunny Days cutouts and the Good Stuff puffy stickers. I also had to use the Family Fun stamp and a couple of small tags from the October exclusive kit, since they worked perfectly with my photos! (The October kit + Family Fun stamp will be available on October 10th, make sure you’ve signed up for our newsletter so you don’t miss it!)

I already had a 4” x 4” group photo printed, so I decided to keep it, instead of re-printing the photo at 4” x 6”. I used the remainder of the pocket to create a closed pocket with sequins and acrylic stars.

On the back side of my page, I kept the embellishment the same, adding only the Everyday labels puffy stickers to the group. To the “boo” 4” x 6” tag at the bottom of the page, I added typed journaling about how much fun we had that evening.

This may be my favorite page in last year’s album! Have a great Halloween, and even more fun documenting your holiday with the Happy Holiday mini collection!

‘Tis the Season layout with Maggie Massey

October 4, 2016

Hey everyone! Maggie here again, this time with a page I created using the brand new (ADORABLE!) Christmas collection, ‘Tis the Season!

Supplies used: ‘Tis the Season Patterned Paper: Merry & Bright, ‘Tis the Season 6×6 paper pack, ‘Tis the Season Bit & Pieces, ‘Tis the Season Wood Veneer, ‘Tis the Season Stamp

The holidays will be here before we know it…and I haven’t even finished documenting last year yet! ACK! So I was so excited when Elle released this fantastic new collection…everything I need to get caught up with last year is included – all I need to do is print those photos and get those pages cranked out!

I found some photos of my younger son helping me bake and printed those out at 3×2. Then I layered them on top of a piece of the black polka dot patterned paper from the 6×6 paper pack (LOVE this print SO MUCH!).

Next I added just a few tags and embellishments from the Bits & Pieces pack…and a few pieces of wood veneer.

A few drops of mist and a little bit of stamping and this page was done! It came together really quickly and easily and I’m so happy with the result.

I LOVE this new collection…the colors, the designs, everything! Especially the woodgrain patterned paper, acrylics & washi tape stickers! Everything coordinates just perfectly to help you create any kind of holiday project – scrapbook layouts & minis, pocket-page spreads, cards, party decor, anything!

Thanks so much for taking a peek…I’m off to print some more photos!

‘Tis the Season scrapbook layout with Melissa Mann

September 27, 2016

Good Morning, everyone! This is Melissa with you here today with a new layout using the brand new ‘Tis the Season Holiday Collection! I do love a good holiday collection and this one is fantastic! The color scheme is a traditional one with pops of pink and grays and I just LOVE it 🙂

Products used: Tis the Season 12 x 12 paper, 6 x 6 paper, Frosted Acrylic Shapes, Stamp, Washi Tape, Bits and Pieces; Letter & Number Stickers – green, and Malia Alphabet Stamp.

I really wanted to highlight those great frosted acrylic shapes and created a layout that had a small grid in it where four different pieces would be able to stand alone. I hand-cut some scalloped pieces to place under my picture and grid and stitched those down with my machine. And I’m LOVING the new Malia stamp set (Alphabet and Numbers) that was released with this collection! I want to use it on everything!! I stamped my title underneath everything, ran my sewing machine back and forth directly underneath it, placed a small tag underneath that and lastly, I stamped the word “tradition” at the very bottom in black ink.

I am so ready for the holiday season to start and creating this layout kicked it into high-gear! I can’t wait to see what everyone will be creating with this fantastic new collection!

Working with printables in your planner with Alissa Fast

September 26, 2016

Good Morning, All! Alissa here today with another super fun way to spice up your planners. I love my planners and my daily tasks are always made so much more fun with a little decoration. No one ever said you couldn’t have fun while keeping yourself organized, right?

These products are perfect for making your planner functional and fun! Check out my September month on a two page spread here:

I started with the month title. I just had to spice up the printed title in my planner. I added a couple die cut labels from the September exclusive kit along with some labels from a few kits back, and some black number stickers for the year.

The labels and bits from the September exclusive kit and the Hello Autumn printables are perfect for marking special days and events.

The 3×4 TO-DO card from the Hello Autumn printables was perfect for adding a monthly to-do list to the calendar, covering a few days that had nothing going on.

To finish it up, I added a couple of the wood veneer flags to the page.

Now it’s your turn – we would love to see your planners! If you are posting on Instagram, make sure you use the #EllesStudio hashtag for a chance to be featured on our feed! And, if you blog, link us up in the comments below!
