Project Life using JBS and Elle's Studio


Hello everyone it's Jenni Hufford here on the blog today!  I am excited to share a Project Life spread using the Jenni Bowlin Studio's Historian Add On Kit! 


This kit is packed with wonderful products-- included lots of Elle's Studio journaling cards!   The travel theme of this kit was perfect considering I was documenting our recent week at Walt Disney World.


In all honesty, I was really intimidated to document this particular week.  I had over 900 photos from our vacation, so choosing just a few was a bit overwhelming!   Knowing that I was going to create a separate album for our trip, I tried to keep in mind the overall goal of my Project Life album, and that was to offer a glimpse into our lives each week.


When choosing the photos, I decided to choose a favorite family photo, a photo of my husband and I, a photo of each of the kids, and also a photo of each child with a character.  


I also included part of a park map, a fast pass ticket, and a character autograph.  The "This Week" journaling card by Elle's Studio in the Historian kit was perfect for offering an overview of our entire week!


Don't forget!  We'll be sharing inspiration all week long both here and on the Elle's Studio blog.  Get inspired and then create a layout or other project featuring your favorite Elle's Studio product and your favorite Jenni Bowlin Studio product.  Post your projects HERE on our message board for a chance to win a $25 gift card from JBS Mercantile and then check out the Elle's Studio blog for details on how to win a $25 gift card from them as well!  

We can't wait to see your lovely creations!

JBS + Elle's Studio + May Flaum


Today's post featuring JBS and Elle's Studio is from May Flaum!  Adorable!  And be sure to check out the Elle's Studio blog for even more inspiration from your favorite two designers, then get inspired to create!



Hi there everyone! May Flaum here to share a layout mixing the playful Elle's Studio release with Jenni Bowlin products. When I saw the blue and orange stars I knew this paper would be perfect for these photos I had of meeting Chip & Dale at Aulani - but could I mix in my fave Jenni Bowlin products?

The answer is, OF COURSE! What I love about Jenni's products is how timeless they are, and from stars ad bows to buttons and chipboard letters I mixed in favorite accents, and rubbed my beloved speckled egg ink pad on my background as well.

I'm all about texture so another detail I had to add was some white paint on my JBS foam dot stamp. This is one of my favorite things to do just to add a intentionally bit of messy fun.

Hi everyone Amy Kingsford here and I'm so excited to share this fun little ALL BOY mini album I'm working on using the Elle's Studio Cameron Collection and the Naked Chipboard Journal from Jenni Bowlin Studio.





I love getting my hands on a great collection of "boy-inspired" products and I must say I'm a huge fan of the Cameron line's vibrant color scheme and contemporary feel.  It was absolutely perfect for bringing together some of my favorite photos and stories about my three guys!



And this 15-piece journal kit from JBS was the perfect base for my project, as the basic ledger, graph and lined papers mixed perfectly with the patterned papers from Elle's Studio and the tabbed dividers and pocket pages helped me to organize my memories.


I accented the pages of my mini using a variety of JBS staples including coordinating Paint Dabbers, Vintage Sew On Buttons, Alterable Graph Alphas and the True Vintage Milk Caps.    


And I've also used several of the tags from Elle's Studio to prompt stories and record fun facts about my guys in my album pages as well.



Don't forget to join in the fun this month by uploading your own projects using a fun mix of JBS and Elle's Studio Products here.  For a chance to win the $25.00 gift card, your entry must be posted by June 24th!  

I had a blast taking this challenge and I'm looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!

Happy Scrapping!

Hi everyone~ I have been scrapbooking this week with some very cool "boy" paper from Elle's Studio called Cameron.  I really found it to be unisex:):).  Worked great with boy or girl pictures!!
The JBS Rhinestone Bow's look like they belong:):):).

Love using the vintage labels from the JBS Mercantile.  I have been saving this one for just the right pictures and paper. Perfect match with the Elle's Studio products. 

And here Elle's Studio is paired with Modern Mercantile and some JBS chipboard buttons

I can't close without an altered project.  This is an old bottle I found on one of my nature walks of the ranch.  It was leaning up against a tree.  The glass is discolored from the elements but so cool.  I added one of JBS's vintage labels{from the ephemera section} on the front and arranged some flowers, JBS feather's and JBS butterflies  to make a new table centerpiece.

Here I've used the Butterfly Background to make a simple layered clipping mask which helped me to combine a few of my favorite patterned papers from the Magpie Collection in an underlying grid foundation on my page.

Fiskars and Jenni Bowlin - who's on first?


When I saw my husband sharing the timeless Abbott and Costello sketch, "who's on first?" who our sons, I just had to snap a quick shot with my iphone.I appreciate all of the little things that he does to be a good dad to them - and I love that we have actually reached that stage in their life when we just plain enjoy each other's company.

Papers from the Wren and Boy Meets Girl collections were perfect together to set a masculine tone for this page about my guys!

And Jenni's choice of such timeless elements as watch faces, buttons and stamps made this layout come together quickly.

as a paper scrapbooker, I'm always on the hunt for a paper trimmer that cuts straight. I have been seriously impressed by this one from Fiskars!

And even though I'm a bit of a novice stamper, I have a feeling that this has the potential to make me much better! I loved how easy it was to get the image that I stamped straight, and even.

Hope you're having an incredible week!
