Hi everyone! Today I'd like to share a page that I did using The Paper Bakery July PL kit. I have seen so many beautiful PL pages and have wanted to try it, but never seemed to have the time or pics to go with what I'd want to do a page on. Recently, when The Paper Bakery announced that they now are offering a PL kit, I decided to give it a whirl. I didn't want the pressure of doing weekly pages, so I decided that I would do MONTHLY pages. I bought a 12 x 12 book and ordered TPB kit and, voila.....my first monthly page! Love the idea of this....I can mark my calendar, and put the cherished moments/events down on paper so that I'll have them to look back on. This is the perfect answer for me.....without the pressure. Yeah!
To create this page, I took a white cardstock paper, from TPB July cardstock add-on pkg. and then colored it with the yummy yellow H2O and green metallic rub, from TPB July mixed media kit. Next I added some of the patterned papers, amazing PL cards, washi tape, and flair buttons, which was included in the PL kit. So easy, and I have the important monthly events documented!
Here are some close-ups:
Love the look of the snazzy PL cards behind my pics and washi tape here and there.
That cool flair button is one that's in the kit and the round circles with the words are from one of the pp's that's in the kit.
Love the vintage radio PL card. This kit is jammed pack with all kinds of neat PL cards to go with all kinds of events.

Well, I think this is an FABULOUS idea...once a month....would suit me too - no young family = life tends to be the 'same'....but a month....GREAT!!! Nice to see a 'page' from you, too....it's wonderful - lovely colours & really nice mix of your textures as well:):) New Fave!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis page made me smile as soon as I saw it. Love the retro look and the crazy stitching. I was really surprised to read it's a PL page. Doesn't look like your standard PL page at all - but then again, if your work was "standard" I wouldn't be such a keen follower!
ReplyDeleteThis is FABULOUS!! LOVING the photos, the flair buttons and all that AMAZING stitching!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun page! Bright and colorful!
