I am absolutely THRILLED to introduce one of our NEW blog segments from the Simple Stories home office – Simple Sightings! This is so exciting for me as I will be sharing some creative and inspiring ideas from YOU – our blog readers, customers and fans. I can not tell you how exciting it is when we see what you have done with our products – whether on blogs, websites, google searches, our Faceobook page… or even when you email us your creations. As a new company in the industry it still makes me so giddy when I see customers actually using OUR Simple Stories products in your projects…it’s an amazing feeling . Even better is when we hear how much you LOVE the design, love the products and how Simple Stories is helping you create beautiful albums, pages and projects…SIMPLY!
So for my first Simple Sightings post I wanted to share with you some of the inspiring projects “spotted” using our Life Documented collection.
Simple Sighting - Robin Herring
These layouts were created by Robbie Herring, who emailed us letting us know how excited she was about our products and how they are a perfect fit for her scrapbook style. I have to agree – she has created darling designs and I love her style! I love all of the details she put into both layouts from the stitching and the banners, the the layering and embellishments…DARLING!!
Simple Sighting - Stacy Rogers
Next is a very simple, yet beautiful card from Stacy Rogers. I did a google search one day…just curious to see what came up with searching Life Documented and this caught my eye immediately. I LOVE how simple this card it, yet so beautiful. It confirms everything I love about Simple Stories – beautiful, simplified design! I like how Stacy added a touch of glamour with the glittered die-cut heart...and the darling stamp. Who wouldn't love to get this card?
Simple Sighting - Linda Auclair
Here's a darling layout the Linda Auclair posted to our Simple Stories Facebook fan page. I love how Linda made the focal photo of her layout really stand out with the cute little scalloped border sitcker (included in our Life Documented Fundamental stickers.) I also loved how she placed the florish under the photo and layered with other Life Documented elements...and of course I'm sucker for anything with banners!
Simple Sighting - Brenda Rose
I also saw this fun card from Brenda Rose. I love how she incorporated stamps and used our predesigned elements in a creative way….again, so simple yet beautiful! She decorated the card with a handmade banner and decorative border punch! ...and I love the sentiment "...sending you a little happy!" This card definately makes me happy!
Thank you Robbie, Stacy, Linda and Brenda for your creativity and inspiration. Now YOU go out and create something amazing....and let us see it! We're going to be scouring message boards, blogs, social media networks, etc. for more Simple Sightings. You can tweet, blog, and even upload your projects to our Simple Stories Facebook page. You can email us ([email protected]), anyway you can share your creations with us...let us know! I'll be back next Thursday with more amazing projects from our viewers, customers and fans...who knows...it could be YOU!
Beautiful cards and layouts, ladies!
