Back to School | The Cut Shoppe

Hey friends!  I'm here today sharing a traveler's notebook layout using the Background Check cut file from The Cut Shoppe.

When this cut file was added to the shop, I knew I wanted to create a layout documenting my sons' first day of school last year.  It is such a perfect cut file to use in a traveler's notebook, too!

To begin my layout, I cut out the cut file using white cardstock.  I backed the numbers three and nine using some patterned paper from my stash.  I chose to only back those two numbers, making them stand out from the background.  I then adhered the entire cut file to a piece of patterned paper.  To embellish this page, I added a few puffy stickers and used some alpha stamps to stamp my sons' names.

For the other side of the spread, I layered some patterned papers behind my photo and then used some ephemera pieces and puffy stickers to embellish the page.

I used some white puffy alpha stickers and alpha stamps to add the title.  I just love how this layout turned out using this cut file!

Thank you for joining me today!  I hope you will stop by The Cut Shoppe store and check out all of the fun cut files that are currently available!

Fun Times | The Cut Shoppe

Hey friends!  I'm here with you today sharing a layout in my traveler's notebook using the And Then cut file from The Cut Shoppe.

I used mainly the Crate Paper All Heart collection for this layout.  To begin my page, I sized the cut file to about 5 inches wide, so it would be a little larger than one side of my traveler's notebook.  I then cut it out using patterned paper, and did an offset using white cardstock to back the file.  I love using larger cut files in my traveler's notebook.

Next, I chose a photo of my sister and I taken earlier this year.  I used a tag and frame from the collection to layer behind the photo.  To embellish around the photo, I used puffy stickers and chipboard stickers.

I stamped several sentiments down the side of the page using a Kellie Stamps stamp set and different ink colors.

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you will check out my post on The Cut Shoppe blog today!

Octobers

Hello friends!  I'm here today sharing a spread in my traveler's notebook.  I created this fun, Autumn-inspired layout for The Cut Shoppe using the World of Octobers cut file.

I sized the cut file to fit on my TN page and cut it out using a digital wood grain patterned paper from my stash.  I used some papers from an older Fancy Pants collection called Golden Days to cut out the word "Octobers" and the leaf image.  I then backed the cut file with another patterned paper from the same collection.

I stamped some Autumn phrases at the top and bottom of the page using some Kellie Stamps and an older Gossamer Blue stamp set .  I love the added interest stamping provides!

For the other half of my spread, I printed a full page photo.  I love the look of large photos in my TN!

I did some stamping on patterned paper, a stamped tag for my journaling, and added a sentiment die cut and a puffy heart sticker.  

Thank you for stopping by today to check out my latest project!  I hope you have been inspired to create something fun today!
