PEEK AT THE PROCESS | I knew three things for sure when I started the creative process for the layout featured above:
1. I wanted to use the photo of Simon reading in the tree and I wanted it to be bigger than 4x6.
2. I wanted to use the July 2010 stamp set.
3. I wanted to use elements from the Studio Calico September 2010 kit.
I started by cutting out the strip of numbers from the Jenni Bowlin pattern paper. At this point in the process I wasn't too sure what the end layout design was going to look like but I had a general idea to use that number strip as an anchor along the bottom of the main content.
After stamping the Capture Life rectangle above on the cream cardstock I decided to repeat that basic shape using pattern papers (sometimes I just stamp and go for it). I love the technique of repetition.
To give the design a bit of variety I mixed up the height of the rectangles.
Each of the pattern paper rectangles was adhered to the cream cardstock. I added a bit of stitching around two of them. These rectangles would make great homes for additional embellishments if you were creating a page similar to this and wanted to add more.
As you might notice I ended up cutting out this whole area with the cream cardstock background and adhering it to white cardstock.
My initial plan was to have the chipboard title just along the top. I ended up adding "& Read A Book" towards the end of the process. Because that all happened at the end I trimmed some white cardstock off the top to make the margins between the edge of the chipboard letters and the cardstock even.
To complete the page I adhered it to the dark navy lined pattern paper and added zig zag stitching and a little bit of journaling.

What a great stamp club! I like stamps with mix-and-match elements ... maybe sentiments with a variety of fonts, or frames, or seasonal images to combine different ways? Thanks for the giveaway!

Ali, your layout is gorgeous. I love how it is so simple yet so complex and beautiful at the same time. I would love to see quotes and swirls, journaling spots and things about sports and character. Love your new blog. I am really looking forward to all of the new inspiration.
xoxo, Christine

Great layout Ali! Browsing through your stamps at Technique Tuesday I'm not sure what to add - how about some Princess themes? I have 3 little girls so we see a lot of pink and princesses!! Also, some simple botanicals would be cool to use at background stamping ...
Thanks for the giveaway!

Ali, I love the designs, feel and meaning behind all of your stamps. I would love to see some designs that have to do with pets and how much they bring into our lives, as well as some travel related stamps!

I'd love to see stamps about siblings - brother and sisters, playing together, squabbles and making up, hugs and looking up to my big brother/sister...

I have loved the bird/nests/leaves design forever, long before it became the current trend. I think it would be cool to have a set of stamps that complimented each other with these designs. A nest, is a home to bring up your little ones, so I think there could be so many sayings and ideas about this incorporated in the set:) Leaves have that eternal quality attached to them of cycles of life and each one is different, so there are many possibilities to suit many people.. :) Thanks for a chance to win this awesome gift!
