Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Oh Happy Day

Today, we have another gorgeous mini album to share with you.

"Oh Happy Day" mini album, by Wendy Morris.

I was so inspired with this mini for many reasons - mainly for the sunshine & happiness in my life - positive vibes, beautiful memories, the everyday, changes, and very exciting plans for the future. All of the Bella Blvd collections are full of color and fun flair and were the perfect palette for developing the title and theme of my mini, "Oh Happy Day". I used many printed papers from old & new Bella Blvd collections - just shows how the mix of Bella Blvd flows so well to mix & match across the color palette of collections.

Be sure to check out my blog for even move peeks into this mini.

The base of the mini is composed of Zutter corrugated board and bound with the Zutter Bind-It-All with some distressing with the Zutter Distrezz-It-All.

Lovin' the sweet & fun buttons also from the Winter 2012 release.

On the page ("hello sun shine"), I drew into more details on this paper with much love for the hot air balloons and adding in some stamped hot air balloons, Bella Blvd Ciao Chip Clouds, sun, and Bella Blvd Icons.

The Miniatures are just the perfect splash also for mini projects - I worked these in on the page "Sledding Adventures".

What's not to love about the fun flags also from the Winter 2012 release? The sweet pearl on the head of the flag, just the perfect touch!

The High Five Alphas from Bella are still my fav crush from the Winter 2012 release. I would take 20 sheets of each and use them all, seriously. They are perfect for mini projects, cards, ATCs, etc. I used them on the cover ("Oh Happy Day") for the title as well as throughout the mini.

Used my vintage typewriter for quick journaling here & there.

Scraps of paper I used with my punches (i.e. blow off the dust from your punches) along with and torn border stickers to make sweet borders under my pics.

Designer tapes are the perfect vintage flair to work with your mini prints (i.e. Instagram photos).
