Faux Tag Spread

In a previous Cocoa Daisy project, I created a tag using the October Glow Creative Ki t paper to serve as a bookmark. I loved the idea so much that I decided to use it as a template throughout the spread. By tracing around it and then shading in the edges, I was able to mimic the look of layered paper and give my pages extra depth without the bulk. It creates a dimensional effect that makes the tags look like they’re tucked right into my notebook. To keep that “layered paper” look going, I added strips of washi tape from the Planner Kit to the top and bottom of each 'tag'  Washi is one of my favorite ways to bring in more texture without overwhelming the page.

Vacation

The to-do list over, only quiet time for reflections and family time now! My parents are back from their travels so we decided to visit them in Colorado. Instead of wintering in Florida, my parents who love to ski, bought a condo here about 10 years ago. Our first day out was very 'wintry'. Snow, wind gusts and 8 more inches of new powder made for a tough day for our little ones.


After 10 years of renting skis, I finally have my very own!


I love it here , so peaceful and quiet. I can't wait for tomorrow, should be sunshine and blue skys. Unfortunately you'll have to withstand some more gratuitous pictures of my vacation next time too. Don't worry, I'm still crafting when I get home from the slopes but taking a great mental break from coming up with new creative projects. Ahhh vacation!
