Picture My Life ~ Chalk It Up ~ Pocket Scrapbooking Week Three

Follow my blog with Bloglovin


Hello!

Welcome to Part Three of my series of Posts on Chalk it Up, Picture My Life Scrapbooking Program.  
I am getting some great photos scrapped and my "School Album" is filling up!! Oh how good progress feels!!! 

You can read my other posts from this series, Part One here and Part Two here.

You can join me in this School Scrapping adventure too! I would LOVE to see some of your Layouts produced with the Chalk It Up Picture My Life Scrapbooking Kit.  If you are playing along please link up your Layout in the comments for me to hop on over and take a look!

It is important to note that you do not need other products separate from the Picture My Life Scrapbooking Program to make this Layout.  The only things I used were basic tools like scissors, adhesive and 3D tape.  I also used a piece of Bakers Twine I received tied onto a present.  So don't think Picture My Life Scrapbooking is going to cost a lot of money and you need lots of extra bits and pieces.  It doesn't.  Everything you need is in the kit.  They take the hard work out of shopping for these products. To purchase yours click the image or go to Jessica's shop here.

More Detailed Layout - Using Four Smaller Photos



First lets talk about the more detailed Layout.
I concentrated on embellishing the 4x6 cards in this Layout. You can watch exactly how I did it in the video below but here are the basic steps...


Three Easy Steps
  1. Adhere photo to 4x6 card with tape.
  2. Cut arrow, heart and globe from another 4x6 or 3x4 card.
  3. Adhere embellishments with 3D tape




Three Easy Steps

  1. Cut tag from 4x6 card. Punch a hole and tie in Baker's Twine.
  2. Adhere tag to 3x4 card and layer photo on top with 3D tape.
  3. Journal on the tag.

Three Easy Steps

  1. Adhere photo to 4x6 card with tape.
  2. Cut arrow, frame, stars and School sentiment from another 4x6 or 3x4 card.
  3. Adhere embellishments with 3D tape
It is so simple and easy!! But it does look cute and everything matches perfectly.  All the colours go effortlessly together.

Simple Layout - Using Four 4x6 Photos

Three Easy Steps
  1. Slip In Your photos.
  2. Choose your 3x4 cards. I cut one 4x6 in half to make the bottom 3x4 card. I cut out the bicycle from another 3x4 card and added it to the top 3x4 card with 3D tape.
  3. Journal. Slip the cards into the pockets.
Too easy!!
