New Travel Destinations!

I think the best part of traveling is going to new and different 

destinations all around our planet.  We get to see new cities and meet

new people and find new foods that we never would have tried

had we stayed home in our hometowns.  

Today we are taking you to some far off destinations 

and sharing with you some fun ideas in creating layouts 

to remember your fun and exciting trips away.

 Our first guest designer of the year is talented Amarilys Doria.  

She is from the sunny state of Florida

and loves to scrapbook as you can see from this

gorgeous layout above.  We love her detailed, victorian 

style and we are so happy she could design some projects

for us to show you this month.

The frame outside of the photo is created by cutting the papers

in the center under it and rolling and inking the papers so that it

looks like this rustic old world kind of charming border and makes the photo

stand out perfectly.  Another great idea for chipboard pieces is to use them

as the center of flowers too.

Kim made this super cute 2 page layout and put her focus on the places 

that they visited with her photos in 2 rows at the top and bottom.  

The airplane sticker on the left leads you right to the title

 and the other stickers are popped up with foam dots

and gives the pages so much more dimension and interest!

Sometimes in a busy destination layout you can lose the photos

in all the product but Nancy did a great job with her photos of 

New York City in their size and placement and adding

journaling cards to tell you all about what happened on her trip!

Irit created this fun layout and focused on the girls

and the excitement they had on the plane ride getting

to their destination.  She used lots of the travel stickers

to created a border and then journaled on top of them.

Our Brittny created this layout stitching around a tan
piece of cardstock and then added the photo and papers
in the center of the page for a crisp and clean styled layout.
She used a black pen and journaled around the outside center
 of the photo and popped up her title to give it some dimension.

 Here is another 2 page layout from our guest designer Amarilys Doria.
The layout is clean and yet detailed and your focus is entirely on the photos
and the colors she picked in papers really set the photos off.

Adding personal details to a layout gives people your
sense of style and makes it so much fun to share with
your friends and family for years to come.

Julie created this fun layout with our glitter cardstock
as the outside border of the photos and mixed the title
with our mini letters and chipboard letters.  The outside
edge is drawn with a black pen and she created her own
 acrylic embellishments that look like buttons to finish it off.
