Today's project is a 12 x 12 inch scrapbook page for Father's Day. I used the papers and labels from STRONG which is from Authentique (a favorite line of mine). The colors for Strong are browns, terra cottas and denim blues. These colors will go with everything!
I started out by using two of the frames that are in this collection. What you see on my page are actually two frames. I thought they looked so good together that I didn't separate them. (I love all things newsprint.)
I added tabs to the word labels (which I cut from one of the papers) with my Tiny Attacher. I figured staples are manly too, yes?
One thing I like is that if I don't like one side of a tag or label, I can turn it over and use the other side. One side has writing and the other side has a different pattern on it and is blank. That is so cool!
Isn't this cute?
I created my journaling "book" by using the tabs from the collection and adding heart shaped eyelets.
This is the journaling space opened. It gives a little 3-D piece to this page.
Last but not least I wanted to mention the border design I made. I used two different sized square punches. I punched the small punch first. Then I punched the larger square around it to get the square frames below. To make sure that I was positioning the punch correctly I turned it upside down. I laid each square frame down to see how many I would need. Once I got the position the way I wanted it, I glued each one down.
I hope that you enjoyed today's scrapbook page. Stop by again soon!
