PEEK AT THE PROCESS
| I knew three things for sure when I started the creative process for the layout featured above:

1. I wanted to use the photo of Simon reading in the tree and I wanted it to be bigger than 4x6.
2. I wanted to use the July 2010 stamp set.
3. I wanted to use elements from the Studio Calico September 2010 kit.

I started by cutting out the strip of numbers from the Jenni Bowlin pattern paper. At this point in the process I wasn't too sure what the end layout design was going to look like but I had a general idea to use that number strip as an anchor along the bottom of the main content.

After stamping the Capture Life rectangle above on the cream cardstock I decided to repeat that basic shape using pattern papers (sometimes I just stamp and go for it). I love the technique of repetition.

To give the design a bit of variety I mixed up the height of the rectangles.

Each of the pattern paper rectangles was adhered to the cream cardstock. I added a bit of stitching around two of them. These rectangles would make great homes for additional embellishments if you were creating a page similar to this and wanted to add more.

As you might notice I ended up cutting out this whole area with the cream cardstock background and adhering it to white cardstock.

My initial plan was to have the chipboard title just along the top. I ended up adding "& Read A Book" towards the end of the process. Because that all happened at the end I trimmed some white cardstock off the top to make the margins between the edge of the chipboard letters and the cardstock even.

To complete the page I adhered it to the dark navy lined pattern paper and added zig zag stitching and a little bit of journaling.

    This is the best giveaway...EVER! I really hope I win! As far as themes, I'm not a parent, so I would like to see stamps that celebrate everyday life as an adult without kids. Not sure what that would look like, though. An easier option would be something to do with pets...especially cats!

    I would honestly love a journal set that was clock-themed - like a clock face with space for journaling? I always want one and never see them, and who better to do it than Ali?

    I'd like to see sibling relationship set...the good and the "so called bad". My relationship with my brothers is pretty cool (now) and I would love to be document my boys relationship with each other especially since I have set of twins. I think it could cross over into close cousins and great freinds too....Thanks for taking our input.
