Xyron and Little Yellow Bicycle

 

This week Xyron and Little Yellow Bicycle have teamed up to bring you some fabulous inspiration! If you haven't been following along all week, be sure to hop on over to the Xyron and Little Yellow Bicycle blogs to check all the DT projects and fun giveaways.

I got to play with the Acorn Hollow collection from Little Yellow Bicycle and it is perfect for Fall projects. I just adore the beautiful colors and fun patterns. We recently took a walk through our local arboretum and I knew this collection would be perfect to create a mini album for those photos.

For each set of pages I added tags cut from kraft paper. Some have words die cut from them and were cut using my Silhouette Cameo. Others are simple pockets for extra photos or journaling cards that I cut and assembled by hand. This first tag is a pocket to hold my journaling card.

The page on the left is a simple pocket page that stores additional photos and memorabilia. On the right page I adhered only the bottom of the owls to the branch. That gives me a place to tuck in photos or journaling cards.

This tag has the word Fall die cut from the bottom in the Arial font.

 Both of these pages have simple vertical pockets for photos and journaling cards.

I welded the word Thankful to to the edge of the tag using the Arial font.

For the left page I created a simple band and added photos of the kids playing in the leaves. The right page is one of my favorites. I added "doors" to open and reveal a photo. Behind the doors is another pocket to store additional photos, journaling cards, or memorabilia.

The last tag is another simple pocket tag for more photos and a journaling card.

On the left page I created a rosette and embellished it with some of the cardstock stickers from the collection. I only adhered the bottom half of the rosette to the page so I could tuck in a photo and journaling card. The right page is another pocket page for more photos.
