'What Trip'

HERE IS WHAT SANNA SAID ABOUT HER PROCESS....
I am usually a one to max. two photo per
layout girl. I hardly ever use more on one page. However, when it comes to
vacation photos, I like to add more on the same page to really document various
events from that particular vacation.
This is why I used a grid as a base for my page. This way I can fit at least 6 photos on one page.
and even if I only scrap say 1/3 of them, I really need a solution like this otherwise I will end up
with more than one album per vacation.
So here is what I did...
I first printed several patterned paper designs
from the Sweet Thing Digital Kit with my Epson (A3) printer and chose the ones I
thought matched the photos the best.
Next I printed the photos with my Canon Selphy
photo printer. The photos are all printed in the same size. That made it easy
to arrange them onto the page. The only thing I needed to do after arranging
the photos was to cut suitable sized pieces of various
patterned papers from the kit and glue them down next to the photos. Next I
just took a black pen and drew some outlining around the rectangles. That way
the papers stand out more from the background.
I also added some outlining along the cream
cardstock too, just to combine all elements together. I like to use black as a
contrast color on my scrapbook pages (and cards). After I was all done with
outlining, I fussy cut some element pieces (for example the ice cream cone, the
muffin and some dymo sayings) and glued them in place.
Finally I added the finishing touches including the title, some puffy stickers
and wood veneer from my stash as additional embellishing and wrote the
journaling. And if you know me, you know, that I cannot live without black
Glimmer Glaze. You can find droplets of it on almost every artwork I make – no exception
here either... :)
I hope you have enjoyed this little background
info on why and how I created this page. I love using Em´s digi kit designs and
creating hybrid layouts and card with them!!! This is one gorgeous kit (as they
all are!) and creating with it was so much fun! I hope you will give this kit a
try and go hybrid!!!

NIFTY PACKS NOW IN STORE| CONTACT SHEETS V.1 + STAMPED LETTER MASH UP
Are you a frustrated photographer, someone that dreams of becoming a professional snapper?
Then the first new nifty pack will definitely get your fstop and aperture tingling!
I'm always on the look out for some great framing packs for my photos and being a frustrated photographer the idea came to me... why can't I atleast pretend to be a professional photographer and create some fun contact sheets with editing marks! Contact Sheets Vol.1 is gonna become your go to framing pack of choice... because now we can easily create realistic looking contact sheets using this nifty pack and those countless multiple shots your hoarding in your photo stash that would normally be discarded, can now shine too!
Contact Sheets Vol.1 includes 5X Photo blocks starting with a single frame right through to a block of 4. Try combining the multiple frames to create endless combinations resembling the original contact sheets photographers edited before processing and print production.
Being a closet art journaler, its rare that any of my pages see the light of day but today I thought I'd share part of my process. I love to recycle magazines and old newsprint in my projects. So I got to thinking that I want to emulate that design process in my digi AJ's so why not create a mash up mixed bag of letters so that you can create some awesome journaling or title work in your projects, hence this nifty alpha pack now available in store!
