Happy Memories | Inspiration

HI there!

Laura here sharing a new layout today.  I am really enjoying using a minimal of patterned papers and just letting these gorgeous Evalicious stamps, tags and embellishments shine!

Back in 2011 my husband, little guy and I were fortunate enough to spend Halloween at Disney World with our friends.  It was an incredible experience.  My husband dressed up as Indiana Jones and our son was his son "Mutt" Jones.  I, of course, did my own thing and dressed as one of the Disney princesses.

I added colour to these great wood veneer using water colour paints, I love how easy it is - the paint takes really well and dries super quick.

I also added some paint to this page tab to help it pop of my white background.  Aren't the badge buttons (flair) and wood veneer so cute!

Another veneer with a different colour of paint.

I love using these large tags on my layouts, they are really pretty and graphic - plus they remind me to journal the story behind the photo!  I used one of the stamps from the "this way"  collection to document the day of the week the photo was taken, super fun!

Sending Love with Pocket Letter | Inspiration

Hi there! This is Rachel here to share with you another spread of pocket letter that was stuffed with lots of love and goodies for a lovely friend I adore.

Similar to my FIRST Pocket Letter I created and blogged about a few weeks ago, I filled each and every pocket of a 9 pockets trading card protector with pattern papers, cut-outs, sequins, wood veneers, badge buttons, sticky notes and more. Plenty of pretty Evalicious goodies used in this little gift.

Top row (from left to right):

Left pocket – slotted in some cute vintage camper vellum cut-outs, coupled with pretty pastel sequins and star shape wood veneer. The opening was temporarily sealed off with washi tapes to prevent the bits and pieces from falling out.

Middle pocket – pocketed a few jars of fruity delights and one of my favorite speech bubble cut-outs.

Right pocket – a fun card with the words ‘Life is …’ and I completed the quote with some alphas puffy stickers. Oh yah, Life is SWEET.

Middle row (from left to right):

Left pocket – a card where I gave a personal touch with some puffy stickers.

Middle pocket – some positive vibes for my dear friend, to have happy thoughts on a daily basis. How I love the puffy flowers!

Right pocket – I hope she’ll squeak with joy to receive these cute stamped coffee cups cut-outs, knowing her to be a coffee lover.

Bottom row (from left to right):

Left pocket - the pocket where I wrote a little letter and tucked it in at the back. I included a hand drew envelope, stamped on words and added a puffy heart shape sticker before clipping it on with a felt smiley star paperclip I made it myself. Plus the wood veneer was prefect – Follow Your Heart!

Middle pocket – popped in a few Evalicious badge buttons and some labels and page tags. I found this cute pink typewriter, stamped on it and clipped it onto the pocket.

Right pocket – filled it up with cute sticky notes.

There, another happy pocket letter done and ready to make its trip to a lovely lady!

Hi there!

Laura here today sharing a page documenting a favourite summer activity - cave exploring!  There is a park about 45 minutes away from our trailer that has several caves that all the boys in my family love to crawl into and through.  They love to check out the varied depths, widths and temperatures.  If memory serves me correctly there are about 7 that they can go into.  I am the waiter, stuff carrier and photo snapper - it is good to have a purpose, lol!

I started my page by adding water colour paints to the background, using two different techniques and three different colours (well, actually I used several colours, but combined them to make three colours found in the products that I used.

Then I began building up and offset grid of cards, tags, and my photo.  After which I layered on lots and lots of great Evalicious Embellishments.

 

I have a couple of Disney photos that I think would look great with this collection, may just have to try that next!
