An Address Book

I've been wanting to create an address book for quite some time, but I haven't found the right collection to play with. That all changed when I received the Simple Stories "100 Days of Summer" collection in the mail. The papers are gorgeous and there is a cute house that's perfect for the cover! I actually cut out one of the houses from a journaling card, framed it, and then added the house sticker from the sticker sheet on top for some dimension. It kind of looks like the trees are in the background!


I created the pages for the address book in MS Word - now I just need to start filling them out!


This chipboard mini album by Maya Road came with envelopes and I knew that one would be perfect for holding stamps. I may also put my return address labels in another one! If you're using an album that didn't come with envelopes, you can always adhere one to one of the inside covers.

I can't believe that the month is pretty much over, and that means this is my last layout using the 4 Heures 37 collection. One thing that totally won me over with this collection is that even though it is travel-themed, it's not over-the-top, and can be used for every day photos as well! For my last project though, I did go with a bit of a travel theme - just because they're our newest photos. But really, these photos could've been taken anywhere, even in our back yard, because these papers just work so well with everything!

History 'Buffs'

I love to travel. I honestly try to head somewhere out of the country once a year. And because of that, I have a lot of vacation photos and I'm always looking for the next best travel line. Well, if you're like me, look no further -
4 Heures 37 has exactly what you're looking for!

On this page, I used more of the generic papers (there are some french-themed papers which I'm excited to use with my Paris photos!) because I thought they went well with these pictures from Italy. One of my absolute favorites that 4 Heures 37 has are these super cute little clouds. They're thicker than cardstock so they're not flimsy, but they're not ridiculously thick that your page will not fit in your page protector. Seriously, these clouds are the cutest things ever.


I did some hidden journaling, but I thought I'd pull it out a bit for the photos so you could see it!

Well, I hope you enjoyed this weeks gorgeous projects, as well as a week full of CHA madness. You know what one of the best things about CHA is (other than seeing all the beautiful products that may break the bank?), is all of the CHA sales. Speaking of which, I hear LCOM will be having an amazing sale on Monday to celebrate Christmas in July! Don't miss it!!

Do you find that you're way busier during the summer and you find it almost impossible to get anything done? That's how I feel, so I completely forgot to share this layout when I finished it. Well, better late than never, right?!

For the title I cut out the letters from the patterned paper. I think it works well with this page, and even though I do love my Thickers, I need to try something different once in a while =P And I love the Sassafras calendar tags. They're so cute, and since I purchased 2 packages, I will be using the second to make some sort of mini album!
