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.

One Little Bird | Between Us


I tried a few new techniques I hadn't tried (or seen) before.  Super sure they aren't new and there is no 'wheel inventing' either, but I just wanted to share them with you guys.

 I also used a blurry pictures that was totally un-salvageable...thought it would be a good idea to use it as a backdrop for one of the collections Journal Cards! I did this digitally but probably would have preferred it physically with dimension. I guess there is always next time!


I tried to play it loose with the collection elements circling the 'No.4' in honor of his birthday and adding a photostrip of him blowing out the candles.  His expression is priceless to me!


Another completed page for the 2016 album!  Yippee!  Thanks for stopping by!
