Hello Again! As you probably remember, I've been working a lot with various subscription kits for my pages. I am really enjoying the variety of products and I love when things coordinate. For my page today, I am featuring the Studio Calico Documenter kit called Confidant . Being it was February, there were lots of products with love and hearts... which was just fine with me!
When starting a page, the first thing I do is lay out the various 4x6 & 3x4 cards I want to use on the PL page protector. Next, I print the photos that work with the theme of my layout. I do most of my photo printing at home on my Canon Pro 9000 Mark II printer, unless it's a large project like a marching band or vacation book. The reason I print from home is so I can make the photos exactly the size I want and I tend to only print what I need for that project so there isn't so much waste.
After the photos are printed & trimmed to fit my pockets, I start figuring out embellishments & journaling. For the top journaling blocks, I trimmed one of the 3x4 cards from the kit & stamped the "completely delighted" and the "Surprise" from the Ali Edwards Surprise Story Stamp set (November kit). Then I wrote in my journaling with a black American Crafts Slick writer pen. YES, I actually hand wrote my journaling! That doesn't happen often because I hate my writing, but what can I say, Ali Edwards has been inspiring me & she does that a lot. For the second journaling box, I added a large stitched heart from the Ali Edwards Bond Story Kit (February).
