AE Type Inspired Layouts - Little Talks

Hello ! Here is my layout two  for the #hastagthisweek prompt on Conversations. It's  again inspired by Ali Edwards Type class :) Can I say, this is one of my favourite layout of all my work. I love it to be simple and no picture. Here is the layout :) 

I cut out the inverted commas using my silhouette, after choosing the font for a long time I finally found one I liked and saved it. I also used Ali Edwards story kit products in this layout. The journaling is typed out and printed on my home printer on a white cardstock. I added some final touches by stamping 2 phrases on the edges of inverted commas. The wood veneers are from Freckled fawn.

Some close ups.

Thanks for stopping by

AE Type Inspired Layouts - Dear Time

Hello ! I'm back to share my layouts inspired by Ali Edwards Type class :)  There will be more to come this month :)

For this layout, I scrap-lifted Ali's design, and added a little stamping and changes to the placement to the photos. I wanted to include more photos and wanted more parts of the images to be visible since this is a layout that talks about a year in general. For the stamps, I used Ali's Dear Time stamp set for Technique Tuesday.

It was really fun! Love how it turns out. Although I did made alot of mistakes initially because of the photo placement, but I tried to make it work. I journaled in a storyline style as well to wrapped up what happen during that year.

Thank you for stopping by today! Will be back with more layouts soon :)

AE Type Inspired Layouts - Magic

 If you follow me on my Instagram or Facebook, you probably know that I'm into making full size layouts lately after taking Ali Edwards Type Class which has just came to an end 2 wks ago. Though started a little late, I was so inspired by the class that I started typing out a bunch of journaling for story ideas that has been sitting in my Evernote app, with just title and little description but not much story content. It haven't been scrapbooking full size pages since about 1.5 years ago, when I decided that Project Life pocket page scrapbooking is what I will continue doing only. But as life goes on, especially when big and small things happen to you, and feelings accumulates, and I want to find a way to sort of trash things out. I find that big stories like these needs large photographs to go with them. Coincidentally I have a brand new 8.5x11 WRMK faux leather 3ring binder sitting there, hence that's the size I decide to go with for now :) And I have been LOVING IT! 

I will be sharing the layouts I have made on the blog this month :) 

This is the first layout I will be sharing. I shared sneaks on my Instagram and have been receiving some likes, thanks alot :D I myself love it too! This layout has alot of first. 

1. It's my first time using Ali Edwards' story kit for a full size layout
2. First time including such a long typed journaling in my scrapbook
3. First time using 8.5x11 photo 
4. First time doing a hybrid full size layout 

The layout is heavily inspired by Ali Edwards and her layouts in the class. I really learnt alot and will continue using the typography design knowledge in my future layouts :)

I strongly encourage everyone to write longer journaling and document your stories, big or small. Jot down your emotions and write down how you feel! It will be interesting when you read it one day :) Thanks for stopping!
