Life Album with Melanie Blackburn

Time is flying by and it is already Week 22.  Before starting this spread, I took a moment to look at my 2013 album and see what I've done this year.  I love looking back and remember those little moments, see how much my baby has grown and all the milestones achieved.  I just love reminiscing and sometimes it's just what I need to give me inspiration to complete another week.

I've come to the conclusion that the magic number of pictures for my spread is 12.  Almost all of my spreads have 12 pictures.  For me, it's a balance that just works.  This leaves plenty of space for journaling and embellished cards.

I love adding stitching to my projects, including my spreads.  It's a quick way to add texture to a card or picture.  The picture below had alot of distracting items in the background.  I decided to hide these items by layering hearts with a wise word sticker.  Then, I also added some stitching for extra detail.  This takes away the focus from the items in the background and onto my family.

I really enjoy the date card below.  I used circle stickers and die cuts of various sizes and layered them along the card.  The recorded sticker was perfect for the date.  Again, I finished the card by adding stitching. 

Another good staple for creating diversity in the spread is using stamps.  I just love the quick quote below, which I thought was a perfect match for the speech bubble.

Overall, this week's spread was pretty simple.  My goal was to show that using good staple items such as stamps, stickers, and diecuts can go a long way and add alot of interest to the spread.

Memorabilia Mini Tutorial with Summer Fullerton

Good morning Jillibean Soup friends and welcome to my June tutorial.  I am calling today's project a Memorabilia Mini.  But, it was almost called the Fast Food Mini because of some of the supplies I used (more on this in a bit).  I originally found this project on Pinterest and knew I wanted to make my own version to share with my Jillibean family.

When I create mini albums, I like to have a basic formula that I repeat on each page.  Once I create the base page, I then build and add layers with embellishments.  I started this project with a basic formula of white baggies, paper straws, a Jillibean Soup kraft polaroid sheet, and some of my favorite Jillibean Soup patterned papers (not shown in the photo).

I found the paper baggies and straws at my local scrapbook store.  If your store doesn't carry these items, I recommend checking Etsy.  The inspiration project used glassine bags, which are made of glossy translucent paper.  My bags were not glassine, but french fry bags.  Yup.  No joke.  These bags were originally made for serving french fries.  Combine this with the straws and I thought I had a fast food project in the making.

Let's get started.  The paper straws act as the binding for this mini album.  (1) To begin, I measured my french fry bag and determined I needed to cut my straws down to 4.5 inches.  This measurement will vary depending upon the size of the bag you use.  (2) I cut 2 straws down using an Exacto blade.  (3) To smooth out the edges, I sanded them with a course nail file.  (4) Then, use Tombow White Mono Liquid glue to adhere the straws together.  Set aside to dry.

The next step is filling and decorating the bags.  My mini album formula was to place my Polaroid photo on the front of each page and fill each bag with a piece of patterend Jillibean Soup paper.  While my bags are not glassine, they are somewhat transparent, which allows hints of the patterned paper to show thru.  I love thiis look for this project.  Instagram photos printed at approximately 2.5x2.5 and are a perfect fit for the Jillibean Soup polaroid frames.  Once I had my basic formula in place, I went back and used Jillibean Soup Die Cuts and Stickers to embellish each page.  My bags just don't house photos, but bits and pieces of memorabilia as well.  Here is what my pages look like before I assembled them into my album.  Also, note the french fry bags took ink really nicely and were super simple to stamp on. 

The next step is assembling your mini album.  You will need some twine and a large needle.  I used some basic white twine/yarn from my stash.  The amount you will vary depending upon on the side of your album.  I probably started out with about a yard simply because I would rather have too much than not enough.  Then, I trimmed the excess.

(1) Start by removing everything from your bags. (2) Take your needle and feed it into the bag down to the bottom left corner and poke a hole through the bag. (3) Then grab your glued together straws that you set aside earlier and feed the needle and twine through one of the straws. Note: as this process continues you may need a kitchen skewer to push your needle and twine through the straw. (4) When working on the front cover only you will need to feed the needle and twine through a second time. Gently pull tight. (5) Move on to the next page and repeat the process. My mini album has 6 pages note that I fed 3 pages through the first straw and then three pages through the second straw. When you get to the last page feed the twine back through to the top and tie off your mini album. (6) To add a decorative element to my binding I punched a hole in a Jillibean Soup Corrugated butterfly. (7) Tie the butterfly to the spine with a bow and trim the excess. Then reinsert your pages back into your album and viola.

Here are some additional close up photos of my memorabilia mini album once it was back together.

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my Memorabilia Mini Album tutorial.

#Trending Tuesday with Nicole Nowosad

Welcome back Jillibean Soup fans!  Today, I thought I would share with you how I go about creating a layout using an inspiration piece.

Inspiration comes from many sources.  Like many people, I have an inspiration board on Pinterest that I use when I need a little boost for a project!  I love using an inspiration piece when I am just stuck and feel like I need a little creative boost - you really never know just how far your creativity will be taken!

I recently came across this on Pinterest  and couldn't resist using it as my starting point for my page:

Source - http://www.perfectdaysdiary.blogspot.com.es/

I loved it so much, I created a cut file for it on my Cameo and then the ideas on what to do with that piece started flowing.

Here's how you can make a cut, or one like it on your page.

Let's start with that cut piece - it's quite pretty on it's own and even if you layer a non-busy background paper behind it.  Yep, that looks pretty ncie, but I wanted to go one step further.

I wanted to do something with all those pretty scraps of paper that I hoard.  So, I took some out and got to work to create a rainbow/ombre effect.

Gather your favorite scraps of paper - or cut down some pieces in varying widths and begin layering them onto the back of your cut piece:

If you come across any areas that are half covering only a half of a mini circle like this:

use some scissors to trim it off around the circle.  If it doesn't bug you, then keep on alternating strips of paper all the way back of your cut shape.  Don't be afraid to use small scraps of paper beside each other, as with the shape difference in patterns won't show up too much!

Keep going until the back of your page looks a little like this hot mess:)

Now, flip the paper over and you will have a super cool effect!

Now, what to do with that?  Use it just like you would any other piece of patterned paper!

Here is the page I created:

Our Private Oasis Layout by Nicole Nowosad

Supplies:
Jillibean Soup
Patterned Paper:  Soup Staples II/Yellow Salt, Turquoise Salt, Gray Salt; Neopolitan Bean Bisque/Balsamic Vinegar, Dried Rosemary Leaves; Irish Farm House Soup/Barley; Fresh Vegetable Soup/Crushed Ginger, Bite Size Bits; Chilled Cucumber Soup/Bite Size Bits
Paper Pad:  Southern Chicken Dumpling Soup
Coordinating Shape Stickers:  Chilled Cucumber Soup
Wise Words:  Yellow Happy
Alphabeans:  Mushroom Gray

I finished off my page by adding lots of foam 3D adhesive behind my piece and layered it over some Soup Staples II paper that was neutral and bring it all together.  I added a title and some embellishments and then the page was complete!

So, don't be afraid to use an inspiration as a starting point and let it take you somewhere different than you may normally go on a project.

Thanks again for joining us on the blog, we love seeing your projects on our Facebook page!
