Handbook | Nicole Reaves
After the school year ended this past spring, my family and I made a summer bucket list of all the things we wanted to do the next few months - movies to see, friends and family to visit, places to go, and so much more. While I was able to cover these activities briefly in my Project Life spreads, I also wanted to include them in their own Handbook. That is how this 'hello summer' album was born.
Here is a little video giving a peek into my Handbook so far, how I chose my supplies + then put together a simple spread.
I am still working on August but I have really enjoyed the simplicity of using a handful of supplies from just one line to get it done. You can see more of my completed pages in the gallery here and here.
Supplies : paper - Thataway 6x6 paper pad, vellum; album - Here and There Woodgrain Handbook; alpha stickers - chalkboard stickers, gray alpha, woodgrain alpha; plastic shapes - stars, thin arrows and thick arrows; veneer - weather shapes; printables - Thataway printables and labels; diecuts - Wonky Circles; envelopes - kraft and vellum envelopes; badges - Thataway adhesive badges; ink - Hero Arts ink dauber in Butter Cup, Versafine in Black Onyx; other - grid cards, car clip, star punch, date roller stamp
