Hello Bella Blvd Friends! This is Patricia to share how the May Mood Board inspired my Traveler's Notebook project today! The first thing I noticed was the texture, then the colors, and the black and white. The black and white inspired me to use a stencil with black ink to create a similar affect from the Mood Board. I created this on a separate piece of cardstock to insert into my very full Traveler's Notebook.
I also worked from the inspiration of the brand new Chloe Cut Files! I created the napping cat and the flowers from Squeeze the Day and Bella Besties pattern paper. I clustered those together at the bottom, and layered more pattern papers under my photo to help it pop more. I could have made this photo black and white, but I really wanted to show that my cat is a calico and the girly blankets from my daughter's bed really went well with the Bella Blvd papers.
For the top, I layered an Oh My Stars Gift Tags in black under the top of my photo and a purple one at the top of the Squeeze the Day Ephemera Words. Then layered a Pretty Boy Cute Clips to it. The blue from the bow and the purple help to create a triangle from the colors on both sides of my notebook. All of this is adding to the wonderful colors found in the Mood Board.
With my right side having a lot of texture and color, I used a light pink Bella Besties polka dot paper trimmed with another Oh My Stars Gift Tags layered on top. I picked the tag because of the black and white and the lines, drawing inspiration from the Mood Board. I used a Squeeze the Day Ephemera Word along with the Wonky Alpha and Florence Stickers to build my title pulling colors from the right side. I finished this with an epoxy heart and washi tape.
Aren't the new Chloe Cut Files adorable!!! The cut files are available now. So hope the May Mood Board and the cut files inspire your next project!
