Meet Adrienne Alvis | Guest DT inspiration



My name is Adrienne Alvis and I live in a very small town in Southern Illinois (United States). My husband is a farmer and we live in the country with our three beautiful and spirited children. I have two boys (11 and 6 years) and one girl (4 years). My husband and I have been married for almost 8 years now and I'm lucky to be able to stay at home with my children and create.  I recently turned 31 on August 31st.  Other than scrapbooking, I like to run, ride my bike, read, snuggle with my kiddos, and take lots and lots of pictures of all of our everyday adventures. 

I started scrapbooking about seven years ago and instantly fell in love!  At first, I only scrapbooked in my spare time as a hobby, but recently it has become a huge part of my everyday life.  I'm currently designing for Come On Get Crafty, Chic Tags, Lily Bee, Gossamer Blue, Scrapbook Circle, and Freckled Fawn.  You can find more of my work on my blog, Paper Fab, and on Instagram @adriennealvis.

Hello everyone!  I'm so excited to be guest designing here on the Evalicious blog this month!  Today I have my spread for Week 35 of my Project Life to share with you...


I've done a really good job of keeping up with this amazing project this year and haven't gotten behind yet.  I set aside a certain time every week just for doing my Project Life spreads.  This week was also a special one because I turned 31 on the 31st!


I used lots of goodies from the Escape collection on my spread, such as the 3x4 snipsnip labels, miscellany tags, and a few badge buttons...


I used two 3x4 photos of my boys on a bungee ride at our local fair, adhered them to a larger piece of card stock, and then sewed down the middle of them and through the "Look Here" Escape page tab so I could lift each side up and have a hidden journaling spot.



I stamped the large ampersat stamp onto a journaling card and then colored it in using some of my watercolor ink.


I also did the same to the "oh shoot" camera stamp below...


Supplies Used:  Escape Bundle, My Favorite Stamp Set, Ampersat and Ampersand Stamp Set, My Week snipsnip tags, Real Life snipsnip tags, Love You Lots snipsnip page tabs 

I hope you enjoyed this little peek into my everyday life!  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Big thank you to Adrienne for being a guest DT on this little blog.
 
While I'm not sure if I'm heading down the route of another design team, I'm definitely wanting some fresh projects on this blog. So what I did was approach some ladies and see if they were interested in being a guest DT. Are you interested in being a guest DT member? Here's how I've been looking...sometimes I go through my previous DT application list (how I found Adrienne:)). Sometimes I go by referrals to my site (meaning I check my shop and see who has been referring guests to my shop - my way of saying thank you). Happy Monday!
