Capturing everyday moments


It's been so relaxing creating a layout for myself these holidays and what a different layout it is, stretching me beyond what I'm used to doing.

I love creating mini albums but have never really wanted to do flips and flaps on a scrapbooking layout because I'm always unsure how I need to store it so that whoever is looking at it, can use it to it's full potential. Having said that, I decided to try my hand at one of these "interactive" layouts, being inspired by some very beautiful ones that I've seen lately.

I absolutely love all the cacti as well as the colour combination of these papers.

I created a large flap on the right hand side of the layout.


This large flap lifts up and over to reveal a smaller flap with space for quite a few photographs.



There is another large flap on the left side of the layout which lifts up and over to reveal some smaller flaps beneath it, as well as a pullout on the left side.






I heat embossed some elements on both pages and coloured some chipboard elements as well as made some splashes using Tim Holtz Distress Oxides.  I hope you enjoy this layout and feel inspired to create something similar.

With love 💙
