Family Fun with New 24/7

It was so much fun to make these layouts of a vacation we took last spring with the Simple Stories 24/7 collection. Our goal was to visit a different park each day of the break, so each page are photos from a different park. I love the vibrant colors of the 24/7 collection. It has the perfect combination of reds, greens, yellows and blues, which make bright, fun pages.

It is so much fun to break up the parts of this project into the different sized photo sleeves. Working on the smaller sized backgrounds of 4 x 6 and 3 x 4 cards really allows you to focus on details without getting lost on a bigger canvas.

I like to mix and match alphabets to create a title, so I added both of the Simple Stories cardstock sticker alphas to these more dimensional cork letters from Little Yellow Bicycle. They match the cork pattern in the 24/7 papers perfectly.

I also love the enormous ampersand on this 4x6 journal card, but I trimmed it down so I could back it with another patterned paper. I also used the new Simple Stories Sn@p stamps to add the numbers 1,2,3 for interest.

I also used the new Sn@p Stamps to add this little calendar to this 3 x 4 journal card. First I stamped the calendar on the grid paper and then trimmed it and added it to the cork paper. A few cardstock stickers from the fundamental sticker page finishes it off.

These little notecards make it easy to add journaling in a jiff and I cut out the tab from this 3 x 4 journal card with a kraft knife and then overlapped the photo with it so the beautiful graphics could still be seen.

This is the other park we visited and my son was excited to pose next to this statue of a coyote. Again it was fun to use the particular template so I could add photos of all of us and still have plenty of creative freedom and space to add journaling.

The cork alphabet looks even better against the darker patterned paper and matches beautifully with the colored cardstock letters.

Who doesn't love an old typewriter? Adds a fun detail to the journal card, which I hand journaled and then added the sentiment "Now" with the cardstock alphabet stickers.

LOVE these cork scrabble tiles. They add such a great texture and sentiment to the project. Hope you found some inspiration from my ideas and will try the 24/7 collection to make your own memory project.
