Sunshine In My Soul! by Mik Godinho

Spring is coming! It is time to bloom!

Spring is the time we are invited to be reborn and to remember the beauty of life.

Being alive is a blessing. I have a notebook of gratitude where I write 5 things for which I am grateful everyday and today I want to invite you to make a gratitude snap.

Let’s record the moments for which we are grateful. 

        

         

Do you know the new Flipbooks from Simple Stories?  You can see all of them here.

           

         

Today I chose the Flipbook 6x8 - whitewashed wood to make my gratitude snap.

This cover is so beautiful, I used only two pieces of paper to make two strips for my background and then I just let the cover shine. This wooden background is so beautiful and matches perfectly with the lovely Bunnies + Blooms collection.

          

        

To decorate, I used chipboards from 6x12 chipboards, diecuts, enamel dots, brads and foam stickers to embellish my cover. For extra texture, I used 3D foam stickers to add the butterflies.

          

        

          

Something I enjoyed doing for this snap was using the tags as tabs.

They look beautiful and add a special touch to the album.

           

          

To allow the pocket page to interact with the page I made the back with, I removed two pockets from the first page. I added a clipboard on the pocket page and now we have an interaction between the two. It's super easy and fun. I really love to make it.

         

          

Another way to add photos on paper pages is by making pockets on the paper pages. 

          

         

        

Instead of adding stickers to the photos, you can add them outside of the pocket page. So, you can change a photo without having to remove the sticker.


I had a lot of fun creating this album. Bunnies + Blooms collection is beautiful. I’m sure that will help you document your gratitude photos in a happy and easy way.


I hope you’ve got some inspiration from this idea and enjoyed it!

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!
