Themes, layouts and inspirations
Using some beautiful new dies from Elizabeth Crafts Annette created some beautiful pocket inserts for her mini travelers notebook. I love how the die makes the pocket itself and cuts the open design with butterfly details. This allows the tag you insert inside the pocket show through a bit for some extra color and texture.

I love interactive elements on a scrapbook layout, they are so fun to create and so fun for others to play with when flipping through your album! Nathalie created this wonderful Lilypad Gate using a variety of products and techniques to go over top of a stunning outdoor photo.
The base of the two arches were die cut using rainbow shaped dies from white and green cardstocks with scored hinge flaps that adhered behind the photo. The Lilypads were created with a dry embossing folder ran through a die cut machine and then she used coordinating dies to ink blend on the beautiful colors. Inside the flaps are other elements too like another photo and a softer stenciled scene with some sentiment strips scattered all around.
