StudioJ - No Limits!

Good Morning all.  I have had the privilege of a few uninterrupted minutes to start my day.  I love summer and I love being able to spend most of my time with my kiddos, but this mommy time is precious.  I wanted to take a few minutes to share one of my favorite StudioJ layouts with you!  As many of you, I am fan of Creating Keepsakes on Facebook and LOVE their inspiration.  I follow Ali Edwards and glen from her Everyday Life album!  Recently I was inspired by a digital layout CK posted on FB.  See below:


After seeing this I knew I wanted to recreate it for my cover page for my Disney Album.  First, I signed into StudioJ (www.scrapali.myctmh.com - products - StudioJ).  Next, I opened a new project and titled it Disney Cover, I looked through all my paper options and choose "Giggles & Grins" - the Disney inspired paper pack.  After selecting the paper pack it will ask you to choose a layout.  To create this layout you must select the "No Limits" layout - this is a member's only exclusive layout.  This will give you two 12 x 12 photo wells.  You can make them journaling, but I advise you don't.  Even if you only want one page, you can then print a 12 x 12 photo at not additional charge. 



Upload the photos you want to use and set to work.  I uploaded two photos, then added my journaling block and a few stickease and accents to create this one of a kind look.


When my layout was finished below is what it looked like when I printed it.  I will post a picture of what I do to the other page (right side).  I plan to use it as a hybrid layout (combining digital and paper scrapbooking) as a closing to my Disney Album.

Tissue stamping, bamboo badge buttons, and edging with the white stamp pad!  Don't miss this!  The footloose budget club meeting will be on June 12 at my home.  You can email me for details as to what to bring.  Place a $25 order and your page is free or pay $5 for your materials.  We will be creating a super fun layout highlighting our photos to create one of a kind titles and a large journaling space.  Also, use our new badge buttons to stamp on and add multiply colors to your stamped images using toilet paper! Plus, don't know what to use that white stamp pad for?  Create eye catching quotes or add the perfect soft edge to this gorgeous paper!
