Stamps Are Fun 08 | Ali's Project

Today I've got a project to share which incorporates the newest Stamps Are Fun set along with Alphas Are Awesome 29. 

As I was thinking about a story to tell I decided to document some of the art journaling/painting inspiration I've saved to Pinterest recently. This felt old-school and brought me so much joy to get those inspirations out of my computer and onto a page.

Let's dive in to the process video and more details about the process: 

Here are additional photos of my project: 

For this project I decided to start with a full page photo (7 inches x 8.25 inches). 

I knew I wanted to do something interactive so I decided to cut that photo in half vertically to create "doors" that open up to the printed inspiration images from Pinterest. I added the "currently" sticker (from the Week In The Life™ Main Kit) to the outside and the "memories" tab along the outside edge.

I used a 1 inch circle punch to punch half circles along the inside edges of my image. 

Here's what it looks like as it's opening in my album: 

And when it's fully open: 

I used the Stamps Are Fun set to create the journaling spots to hold details about my inspiration pieces. Inside the top boxes I added a "currently" stamp from this stamp set and numbers from this stamp set. 

I created a vellum flip up using a pattern vellum I've had in my bridge storage for a while. I've almost used it a bunch of times - today was finally the day! On top I stamped "inspo" using Alphas Are Awesome 29 along with "documenting" from this stamp set. 

I printed my Pinterest inspiration squares (1.75 inch x 1.75 inch) on Koala Printable Sticker Paper. I've seen Azzari talking about this photo sticker paper recently and have been really happy with it so far! It's thinner and great for a project like this - it would also be great for adding to a notebook without adding bulk. 

I stamped the outline shape from the new Stamps Are Fun set four times to create four journaling spots. I added small number stamps and the word "currently" from this set. 

This was such a fun project to put together! I loved printing out the inspiration pieces and reflecting on what's been inspiring me visually in the recent months.
