Scrapbook Circle | Explore

This is a personal blog. All editorial content and projects are intellectual property of  http://www.scrapbookcircle.com/blog.  I do receive  material product from Scrapbook Circle to develop my craft posts, but all ideas and opinions are my own.

One of my favorite pieces included in the Scrapbook Circle Have a Little Fun Today kit is the acrylic word "explore".

I created my background using a cut file made by the fabulous Paige Evans for Studio Calico.  I backed my cut file with different pieces of patterned papers included in the main kit.  I specifically chose papers from the Pink Paislee Atlas collection because they work so well together.  

I placed the acrylic "explore" word underneath my photo.  Because the word is translucent you can still see the design behind the word.

If you haven't already, make sure that you pick up this fun kit today!

Scrapbook Circle | Today

Tags, tags, tags!  I just can't get enough of them.   They make great embellishments, they are great for journaling, and they make a big impact on projects when they are all strung together!  For this month's designer choice layout, I decided to create a layout for Scrapbook Circle this month featuring tags!

To create my layout I used the June Have a Little Fun Today kit with the June Add-on List Keeper

I placed a gray tag (included in the main kit) behind my white cardstock base and then strung a line of Pink Paislee travel tags across the top of the page.  I used a sewing machine to stitch them down.  

I added some light stamping, a few drops of yellow spray mist and a few embellishments to finish off the page.  

Have you played with tags on a layout?  How about a card or pocket page?  We would love for you to share it with us on our Facebook Page.  Thanks for looking!
