Whimsy Stamps Guest Designer | Traveler's Notebook Layout

 


Hey, friends! Marsha Farris here with you again today, sharing a traveler's notebook layout for my final guest design post for Whimsy Stamps.


I created this spread to document a photo with my two sons, taken on Mother's Day this year. I began the layout by adding stamped splatters to each page with the Distressed Backgrounds and Ink Splats Stamps and light gray ink. This stamp set makes creating mixed media backgrounds so quick and easy! Next, I trimmed two strips of patterned paper from the Starring Hearts 6x6 Paper Pack and adhered them to the top of both pages. I did a bit more stamping at the top and bottom of the pages with the Get In Line Stamps using black and light gray ink. Next, I layered a few patterned papers from the same paper pack behind the photo. 



I typed my journaling, trimmed it into strips, and added it below the photo. I also trimmed out a few triangle pieces from a patterned paper and added them to the page. I love the pop of yellow this provides!


Using the Happy Large Word Die and a few patterned papers, I cut out the word "happy" three times to serve as a portion of the title. I completed the title with puffy gray letter stickers. 


Thank you, Whimsy Stamps, for having me as a guest designer! I have enjoyed creating with these amazing products!

Whimsy Stamps Guest Designer | Traveler's Notebook Layout


Hey, friends! I'm excited to be with you today, sharing a traveler's notebook album layout for my first guest design post for Whimsy Stamps!


I created this spread to document my little niece's favorite birthday gift. I began by trimming two pieces of white cardstock to fit as full pages in my album. I added splatters to each page using black acrylic paint and a paintbrush. I chose a watercolor floral patterned paper from the Fabulous Florals Paper Pack and cut out several gorgeous flowers and flower clusters. Next, I trimmed a black and white striped paper from the same paper pack on the diagonal and cut it into a few strips, allowing space to tuck the fussy cut flowers.


I used another striped paper to back my photo and trimmed it into a tag shape. Tags are always a favorite, so I could not resist including one on the layout!  


Using the Happy Large Word Die and black cardstock, I cut out the word "happy" to serve as a portion of the title. I completed the title with the Cross-Stitched Sentiments Stamp. Then, I did more stamping above the photo with the same stamp set and black ink.


I love how my layout turned out using Whimsy Stamps products!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I will see you again soon with more inspiration!
