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.

My Finds

I had some time to kill before an OB appt last week so I waddled over to the closest thrift store. Among the plastic lanyard and dried out stamp pads there were two boxes of patterns.  I chose 6 well loved patterns.

The gender neutral PJ's are cute.  And just in case I have a little girl, the shirt top will come in handy and the pants will suit no mater what pops out of me.  I must be full on nesting. I just wish the toilet and gun cabinet were out of the baby's room soon. Although, they could come in handy though. Just Kidding!
