Good morning.
Danni here with today's new Monday challenge: use your "Here and Now" album pages in a non-mini album project. I love the new mini albums, but there are times where you won't use every single page for an album. We hope to provide you some inspiration for the use of your extra Here and Now pages or inspiration if you don't normally create mini albums.
Joining me today is Vivian and here is her awesome layout.
How cool is that "dude"? I love this page and such a brilliant way to use those conversation bubbles!
Here's what Vivian had to say:
The Cakewalk Here and Now Chapter Book page filled with speech bubbles actually sparked the idea for this layout about how "dude" is a word my son uses often (very often!). By repeating the word over and over with different letter stickers I was able to get my point across visually with a vibrant graphic element that supports my story. A second page from the Cakewalk Here and Now Chapter Book serves as a large journaling card at the top of the layout.
I chose to create gift card/cash gift pockets with some of the pages from my "Here and Now" album. I scored the pages at 3 1/2" and began stitching, trimming, and layering them with the fun embellies from the Cakewalk line.
With two of the album pages, I decided to create a clear confetti pocket and fill it with OA embellies before stitching closed. It feels like a party in a bag and the little tid bits can move around
After stitching the chipboard balloon, I tucked it into the pocket also before stitching closed. Once the pockets were stitched closed, I adhered the tin pin to the front of the pocket.
Some of the pockets open from the side too because of pre-printed patterns on the pages.
We can't wait to see what you'll create with your pages.
Thanks for visiting us today!
Happy Creatingâ„
Danni & Vivian
