Thanksgiving Week Day 6 | Traci

Happy Saturday everyone!  I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving!  November is always one of my favorite months of the year ... the fall season in Georgia is so pretty, I love the cooler temperatures, and the Thanksgiving holiday always reminds me to be grateful.

So for my project, I used some colorful Bella Besties papers and Trinkets puffy stickers to create a gratitude journal.

For the album base, I used the Essential Mini Album die (661094) that was designed by Lori Whitlock for Sizzix.  I cut the base of the album pages out of white card stock, and the inset papers out of Bella Besties and lined journaling paper.

 

The pattern papers and cute flower die cuts are from the Chloe collection, and the "thankful" title is a die from Echo Park Paper Co.  (Links to all products can be found on my Artsy Albums blog).

I kept my album pretty simple because I plan to put 3x4 photos on the left side of every layout, and then journal about the things I'm thankful for on the right.

 

I added clusters of Trinkets puffy stickers on each journaling page.  I love how there are flowers, hearts and arrows so that I can mix it up.  So simple but so cute!

 

I love small little albums dedicated to journaling.  This would also be a fun project for kids to write what they are thankful for, or you could change up the papers to mcintosch and guacamole for a Christmas traditions journal.  

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today.  Again, if you need any links to products you can find them over on my blog at Artsy Albums.  I hope I've given you a few fun ideas for using Bella Besties and those adorable puffy stickers!
