Inspiration du Jour | My Whole Heart

May 19, 2014 by Francine Clouden

Inspiration du Jour - My Whole Heart by Leanne Allinson

I chose to feature My Whole Heart by Leanne Allinson because of the photo of her children, and because as a mother I instantly identified with her title. I loved the buttons and sequins too!

Tidbits about Leanne:

How long have you been scrapping?

I’ve been scrapping now for about four and a half years.  I only really started after my youngest was born.

Paper or digi?

Definitely paper!! I’m too technologically challenged to attempt digi!

What is your favourite scrapping supply?

Beautiful pieces of patterned paper teamed with white cardstock.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find my inspiration comes primarily from the story I want to document.  Usually, once the story has a suitable photo to correspond with, I add bits and pieces that help subliminally enhance my journaling.

Learn more about Leanne on her blog Our Little Family and check out her Facebook page too.

How to Make a Cute Teddy Bear Mini Journal

How darling is this mini friendship journal from Diane!? It’s so cute, filled with stamped Teddy Bears and sweet sentiments in it’s own little floral box. She used dies and stamps from Art Impressions to create this sweet little project that would be perfect to send to a friend to brighten their day, you could even include photos and personalized journaling to make it more of a mini scrapbook if you’d like. The box the journal is in was die cut from blue cardstock with an open window on the top and covered in custom “pattern paper” that she stamped and colored with a magnet snap to keep it closed.

How to Make a Cute Teddy Bear Mini Journal

She used plaid, striped and polka dot pattern paper to decorate each page, using more blue cardstock for the base of the album. Each page has has either a stamped sentiment or a different sweet bear stamped in sepia ink and water colored with markers on a white die cut panel with pretty detailed edges.
