Life Documented with Say Cheese

Hi everyone, Marie here today to share a Life Documented project made with the Say Cheese collection, with a little help from some Kiwi Lane products.

When I first saw the Say Cheese collection I loved everything about it.  However I didn't really have any Disney pictures on hand.  Not to worry though, the collection is so versatile I soon realized it would be perfect for a different project I wanted to scrap... dogsledding in Alaska.

The colors worked really well with the photographs.  Blue coordiated with the blue skies, red accented the helicopter and dog leashes, and yellow was a nice accent color.
Captions like "adventure" and "dreams do come true" went perfectly with this project.

I even found a perfect spot for the "just being goofy" card, next to two puppies playing together.

I used a Sn@p! Page and Sn@p! Pocket to create an insert between my pages. 

The Sn@p! Pocket holds the ticket and some tags from the trip.

Here's a look at the back of the insert, with a picture taken while actually riding on the dogsled.

The second page presented a bit of a challenge.  Across the top there was 4x12" Pocket Page opening, but my printer only prints up to 8.5" x 11". 

So when I printed the top photo of my husband in landscape mode, I had a one inch gap on the page.

This is where Kiwi Lane came to the rescue.

I used their Tiny Bracket templates over some journaling I did on the computer, and then I knew I'd have a perfect fit to layer over the gap on my page.

These brackets are also perfect for adding paper accents to photos.

I was really happy using the Say Cheese collection in a different way.  I hope this gives you some inspiration to use the new lines with all sorts of projects!

I am using the 12x12 Sn@p! Faux Leather Album in Teal.  I love the quality of these albums along with the stitching detail around the edges.

On this project I used 12x12 Sn@p! Pocket Pages in 2 designs:
