Morning Routine Scrapbook Layout | Studio AE October 2010 Stamps
My Studio AE for Technique Tuesday membership stamps for October 2010 are some of my favorites. They are based on two of my digital products: Life Mini Line Stacks and You Mini Line Stacks.
Here's a closer look at this two-page spread. All supplies listed at end of post. Click any image to view larger.
and the other side:
And a little look at my process:
I started with the enlarged photo of Simon out in the morning fog. The photo and the piece of pattern paper are each approximately 8 inches x 10.5 inches.
Along each of the outer edges I adhered a strip of pattern paper that's about 1/8 inch wide x 10.5 inches tall. This came from the same sheet of pattern paper as the large area (great for using the pattern on the back).
Next I stamped two sentiments and a date on white cardstock.
Each of those stamped pieces is adhered to a bit of pattern paper and then finished off with a zig zag stitch.
Adhere tags on top of photos. Add a staple if you like a bit of metal. Add letter stickers, journaling, and just a bit of stitching along the outside edges.
If you're a member of Studio AE they just started a gallery for projects using these products. You can learn more about that here.

I love the sweet pictures of Anna and Simon. I saw this pattern paper in an online store and I didn't particularly like it, BUT you made it look gorgeous! Now I want it . . .

Ali - thanks for the shout out a few weeks ago about the Brother 2600i sewing machine. Mine just died the same week, and after lots of consulting with sewing friends and on-line reviews, I went with the Brother. So far, it's working much better than my other little guy did. It'll be getting a workout with my holiday daily :)
I'm totally liking it too Jill!

Until I read, I thought the love always wins was stamped on fabric or canvas. I assume this is orangle peel Bazzill you like. It looks awesome.
Thanks Tracy - I love that orange peel + I also like the criss cross texture when I can find it.

I love everything about this layout! The photos of Simon and Anna are precious and really convey the love between them. Simon is such a good big brother and has gotten so big. You and Chris are amazing parents and human beings. My nephew has autism and I have learned so much from you over the past few years. Thank you for sharing and touching so many peoples hearts and lives.

Love the layout! Question: What printer do you use? From what I can tell on blog photos, yours does a great job for at-home printing. I'm looking to get a new printer and I'm open to any suggestions on a good home printer (that will get quite a bit of use.) I've not had the best luck so far with printers lasting. Lately, instead of replacing ink, I've been replacing the whole darn thing! ;)
