Hello everyone! I’m back to show you some more of my recent pages.
My boyfriend and I love going on road trips, so this kit gets a lot of play in my scrapbooks. Since I had a bunch of photos from a trip upstate, I decided a smaller format would be best. They are smaller squares, so I scaled down the pattern on the blue arrow paper, which is one of the reasons I love using digital products. Traditional paper products tend to have a larger scale which doesn’t always work for me, and having the ability to alter things is a huge plus!

For this page I used one of the definition stamps over and over again to create a patterned paper. I added some handwritten text in pencil and watercolored over the whole thing to blend it all together. Reminds me of an old paper from my early days of crafting 🙂

Finally, this is just a quick page that I did art-therapy style. I’m going through some big changes and crafting about it helps me work out my feelings, or at least see the bright side of what’s going on. I added some glitter to mimic splattered paint, because hello glitter is awesome.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my pages! As always, I love stretching my creative boundaries and messing around with digital products!

Hi, Kristi! I really love your road trip page with the small squares! Well done! Where did you find that pocket page? Also, what kind of printer do you use? Thanks!
Hi Melanie,
I uses an Epson printer. It’s not my favorite, but it was a hand me down and I hate to waste things so I will use it til it dies and then invest in a better option.
The pocket page came from an art store called Blick. This is a similar version on their website. http://www.dickblick.com/products/pana-vue-archival-pages/ You can probably find them elsewhere, just google page protectors that are meant to house slides. There are a lot of great options outside of the scrapbook world. I always find great stuff in office supply stores or stationary stores too!
That’s such a great idea! I see slide page protectors all the time at the photography store, but I never thought about using them for scrapbooking! Thanks for the inspiration! I look forward to seeing more of your work.
