{A Flair for Buttons}

Music To My Ears | Diane Payne

Happy Friday everyone, Diane here sharing a memory documented with a quick and easy 6x8 pocket page.

I printed my photo at 4x6 and added some musical notes to tie in with the theme of the story and pocket cards. To add a little more interest to the pocket card I outlined it with black ink along with a puffy embellishment at the bottom of the journal card.

Once I was done adding embellishments to my photo and pocket cards, I slide them into the page and added my music flair on top of the page protector. I like how it overlaps the photo and pocket card.

The flair is from the Feel The Music Flair Set! I love it...the colors tied into the colors of the other products perfectly. You can find the set at the {a flair for buttons} shop.

Thanks so much for swinging by and have a fabulous, crafty weekend!

Keep Calm and Workout | Diane Payne

Hi everyone! Diane Payne here with you today sharing a funny workout layout. 

I wanted to tell the story of how my dog loves attacking my face with kisses when I'm down on the ground doing yoga, lol! I used a full page photo on the left with a title overlay. On the adjacent page I created a grid of circles on a transparency and filled the circles with journaling, flair and other embellishments to complete the layout.

Who needs yoga for stress relief when you have a sweet puppy, right?!

The flair is from the Workout Flair set from the {a flair for buttons} shop. I like how the black flair button pops against the background and stands out from the other elements on the page.

The saying on flair ties in with the theme of yoga too...keep calm!

On the back side of the transparency I layered more circles and embellishments. I love how this looks layered over the photo.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

summer | orange gearle

Hi! Orange Gearle here with a layout to share with you! 

I used three pieces of flair in a visual triangle. The flair is from three different sets, and I think they worked quite well with the Maggie Holmes Sunny Days collection. Here are a few close ups. 

The piece above is from the Hashtag Summer Flair set. The pink one below is from the Primary Arrows 1 Flair set.

The last piece is my favorite! It is from the Watercolor Patterns Flair set. I am in love with the watercolor look!

I had a little problem with my title -- but I found a way to fix it. Check out my process video to see what happened!

Here is a video of how this one came together.

 

Thanks for stopping by! XO o.g.

Fabulous

Hey everyone, Michelle here today with a new LO to share.  I just love summer themed LO's. I think it's the florals that make me happy the most.  This new collection Splendor from My Mind's Eye is full of floral and pretty colors.

I love to take photos in the summer.  There are so many more possibilities when you're outside.   Lucky for me, my girl is always a good sport!

I love the neutral color of this flair button.  It would work for any LO!

Thanks for stopping by! 

 

Love That Smirk

Hey there! It's Devra here today sharing a project that I made for the Paper Issues Boys Will Be Boys challenge. 

Did I hear boys? Oh this challenge is right up my alley. I like using a larger die cut, and backing it with bright colors and bold patterns. It's very me to do that. It also means I don't need to use a lot of embellishments. I layered a few die cuts, then added, you guessed it: flair!

I chose pieces from 3 different sets, Hashtag boy, Hello Summer and Epic flair. The turquoise  and yellow pieces fit right in. I love the Live Out Loud piece. It ties all the colors together.

Oh this child of mine. He has the best grin in the world. And he knows how and when to use it. 

Thanks for stopping by today. See you next time!

Relax

Hello, Laura here with you today. It's beginning to look a lot like summer here. We bought a hammock last year and it is the perfect place to relax. Right now it's up high enough that I have to use a chair to get into it, but that allowed the cat to climb in and join me!

 

I used the I Love Arrows Flair. I love the bright colors that were perfect with this Vicki Boutin collection. Be sure to stop by the shop and find the perfect flair to help tell your story! Until next time, happy crafting.
