Scrappy Canary: January Pocket Life kit Roy

Project Life Week 1 - with Karyn!

Hi Scrappy Canary lovelies!!

It's Karyn here today sharing Week 1 (part 1 actually) for my "Schultz Family 2016" Project Life Album.
This week I've used the January Pocket Life kit Roy from Scrappy Canary. The photos are from our summer beach holiday, we had an amazing time!

Here is a close up of the LHS. I've included lots of handwritten journalling and some more painting as well as used lots of fun embellishments and cards from the kit!

I love the cards in this kit (Studio Calico Goldie journal cards). There plenty of space for journalling on each card. The other side of the card is a complete pattern if you prefer.

A die cut heart and a puffy sticker is all the embellishment needed here.

Here is a close up of the RHS. I chose a different pocket layout for this page for a change.

More cute diecuts and puffy stickers. I was undecided whether or not to colour in the cup - I prefer the uncoloured look I think!

I purchased these printables last year but never used them - perfect for the uncluttered look of this page.

The "#got this" sticker is actually gold on black - bit hard to photograph but perfect to use on the cards!

I've included more painting on this card, I want to try and remember to do this throughout my album if I remember. These lines and colours go well with the beach theme of my photos.

Happy Crafting
Karyn xx

Project Life Cover Page 2016 - with Karyn!

Hi Scrappy Canary lovelies!!

It's Karyn here today sharing the title page of my "Schultz Family 2016" Project Life Album.

I've used the January Pocket Life kit Roy from Scrappy Canary. This is probably my favourite PL kit so far. I love that there are lots of cards, and lots of black and white - very modern and versatile colours. I also love the pack of Kaisercraft die-cuts in the kit - just adorable!

I decided on quite a different look for this page and kept it almost scrapbook style. I started with a sheet of 12x12 cardstock and painted some yellow lines across the page as shown. I used acrylic paints this time - just some from my girls art packs. I love the thickness and vibrancy of acrylic paints, I just added a bit of water so it would flow to my liking.

Once the paint had dried (which did take some time as it was quite thick in places) I added a strip of paper along the bottom of the page. This strip was from some paper in the January Scrapbook kit Andy - a barcode strip actually! Then I added some accents from the die-cut pack, the sticker pack and the puffy stickers from the kit. I love the variety of shapes of the puffy stickers!

Next I cut the 12x12 sheet into 3x4 cards and replaced one of the painted cards with a card from the kit embellished with diecuts. I watercoloured the pot plant for some extra colour.
