Do you ever run out of ideas for your 6 x 6 paper pads? Our Wednesday blog is a source of ideas for how to put those pads to good use. This week I used some leftover scraps from the February Project Life 6 x 6 pad to frame first my photo and then the top and bottom of my page.
Be sure to leave your guesses on what products you see here to be entered into a drawing to win a $5 Citrus Twist gift certificate.
Here’s my finished scrapbook page:
I used one of the journaling cards from the February PL kit. I haven’t journaled on it yet, but the title banner on it fit the mood of the picture perfectly. I used more left over 6 x 6 scraps to scissor-cut some chevrons then stitched them down on my page. And since February is Play with Your Gesso month at Citrus Twist, I used my gesso on my stamps instead of ink! I like the painterly look gesso makes when you stamp with it.
I love using my Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio to make little shapes, like the round resin button shown here. The Shape Studio comes with a punch that lets me punch out shapes out of smaller scraps of paper.
Here’s the last close-up. I love using the top edges of the 6 x 6 sheets:

I see the Pebbles Seen and Noted cards from last month? And darling dear alpha stickers?
Those are Pebbles Seen and Noted cards, but they’re different from last month’s! There were two journaling cards in that collection- one was in the January PL kit and one is in the February Main!
And, yes, those alphas are from Darling Dear!
I used the 6 x 6 Seen & Noted paper pad to create this layout then threw in the alpha (Yes to Darling Dear on that) and one of the exclusive Citrus Twist journaling cards.
Can’t wait for this kit to arrive at my door. Love the colors.
I see Pebbles!!! My favorite!!! YAY!!!!!
you are correct Tristen
Loving all the details used with the little scraps…
Thanks Sophia! I’m excited to see what everyone does with their February PL kits.
I like the idea of stamping with gesso for a new look. Is the alpha from Studio Calico?
that’s right Amy..above they are mentioned from the ‘Darling Dear’ collection, which is from SC
I love all the fun, bright colors in your layout & the stitching!

Pebbles Seen and Noted! I am so glad to be on the waiting list for the PL along with a friend. She is getting two kits so we can save on shipping! Thanks Trina for letting us do that! I appreciate it!
I also spy SC Alphas and Epiphany Acrylic Circles! I am not sure what are they called exactly:)
Yes and Yes! I love my Epiphany tool. We’ll be carrying them soon in our store, too
Adorable!!!! A little late to the party, but loving the sneak!
Loving all of the Seen and Noted pieces! I really like the stitching on your sneak, too
