Yearbook: Documenting Simple Life Facts

January 13, 2016 by CaroliSchulz 7 Comments

Hello!! Caroli here and today I want to show you a project I made using my January Kit Alegria.

For me, scrapbooking is all about documenting life, simple things and also important facts or milestones. In this case, I made this layout for documenting a simple but yet important fact: my little girl loosing 2 teeth at the same time! It’s something quite natural but so important at the same time. Also, we’ll have a good laugh when she’s a teenager and take a look at this pic, LOL!

Here is my layout:

As you can see, I used one of the exclusive cut files designed for this kit, I love butterflies and grids, so when I saw this cut file I cut it in several sizes and colors, I plan to use it a lot!
I filled some of the spaces with patterned papers and left some other empty, and in order to have more color and variety, I put the whole shape of the butterfly behind in a different paper and folded the cut butterfly, I loved the effect.

For my title I used the word “smile” from the Fancy Pant’s Puffy Scrip Word set included on the add-ons of the kit, and complement it using some Bella Blvd. alphas I got left from December kit.

I balanced the composition with the journaling, which I wrote using one circular labels, some flowers from the ephemera package, both included on the kit.

And that was my layout, a simple memory documented for the future 🙂 I hope you liked the idea and use the butterfly cut file too!  Big hugs and have a lovely day ❤
