Colorways Football Layout

I have another layout to share with Paper House ColorWays collection. Here is my Colorways Football layout.

 

I don't know why I didn't think of scrapping sports photos sooner with Colorways. All these gorgeous, solid color prints are perfect for matching school colors. While I like scrapping with the traditional sports themed papers, it's fun to use some of these more neutral patterns. It really freshens up your layouts when it feels like you're scrapping your 100th sports photo. 

Since Paper House has so many great stickers, it wasn't hard to fins some coordinating embellishments. I kept it simple with a few 3D football stickers and a few journaling tags from Colorways.


I love this photo so much! So thankful my photographer Sister-in-law was there to capture it.

Harry Potter Pocket Pages

I don't always scrap in order...way back in 2017 we took a family trip to California. I've finally just started scrapping the trip. Here are my first completed Harry Potter pocket pages from that trip.

 

I finally started on the album, because Paper House came out with these gorgeous new Harry Potter papers and stickers.  I couldn't pass up using them to scrap our photos from our visit to the Wizarding World at Universal Studios.

 

I especially love the coordinating 3D stickers. 

 

I've used the flat card stock stickers before in my planner, but I loved getting to use them in this mini album. 


For occasions like this, sometimes I like to create a 6 x 8 pocket page mini album. I find that I can scrap a lot of photos and tell the story of the trip or event more quickly.

We did a lot on this trip...so now I've got lots of other California attractions to scrap to fill up this album!

Pop Up Gift Card Holder

It's the season for giving! Whenever I give a gift card or cash gift, I like to find a way to make it a bit special. This years gift cards and money gifts are coming in the form of these pop up gift card holders. 


These cards are from a file you can cut with your Silhouette (340361 Hexagon Pop Up Gift Card). The fun comes in customizing them with whatever papers and embellishments you like. 

As you can see in the photo above, the card can be folded flat so it fits easily in an envelope.

To create this card, I chose a mix of patterned paper and embellishments from Paper House's new Christmas collection. The patterned papers are called Dear Santa and Merry and Bright. I used some flat holographic star stickers from Christmas Joy Mini Stickers, and the greeting is from Merry Sculpted Puffy Stickers.

It takes a bit of time to assemble the card, but it pays off big with a super fun way to gift cash gifts.

Colorways Anniversary Layout

Today I have another layout to share with Paper House ColorWays collection. This one is an anniversary layout. 

 

I think the green and blue papers in the ColorWays collection are my favorite. They are just so rich and I cannot wait to use them in all the projects. 

For embellishments on this layout I used some of Paper House's new clear Scrapbooking Stickers. I've had them sitting on my desk for a few weeks, but this is the first time I've tried them. They are thick and so easy to work with. The quality of them has made them my new favorite clear sticker to work with.

With this layout completed, I am now caught up on our anniversary scrapbook. I love seeing how we've changed and the adventures we've had through the years!
