Love Always Mommy Layout by Lisa Spiegel


Love Always Mommy Layout
Curtsey Boutique Designer
Lisa Spiegel

Have you ever pulled out a coat or purse after having not used it in awhile and discovered a $10 bill? It is such a lovely unexpected surprise. The same thing happened to me today when I was doing a bit of inbox cleaning I found one more project from Lisa that I hadn't shared yet with you - a lovely surprise!

Lisa filled her layout with doilies, a library card, vellum bag and our shipping tags. 

In her own words "I use all of these products on almost every layout I create!  I just love the subtle layering they allow and the ability to hide my journaling in the vellum bag is one of my best tricks to sharing meaningful journaling that you might not want everyone looking through your album to see."

One of the absolute best parts of my morning routine is checking out my inbox to see what lovely creations my designers have sent me. I truly am amazed by their creative and this project by Connie is perhaps one of my most favorite.

Today she shares a lovely tutorial for making photograph bags to house lovely vintage snapshots. I hope you enjoy following along.

       1. Take the muslin bags and soak them in strong tea.

2. Let them set for about 30 min.  Then take them out and dry them.  (I let mine drip dry outside)


13.    Cut out your leaves using the Spring Greenery by Tim Holtz/Sizzix.
44.   Hot glue a cluster to center of the muslin bag.
55.  Hot glue the burlap butterfly over the leaves.

66. Take the seam Binding and spray it with water and scrunch it up in a ball.
77. Apply the Distress stain to it ~ random places and dry with a heat tool.
  8. Make a messy bow and adhere it to the center of the butterfly.

19. Stamp the white tag with your message and adhere under the wing of the Butterfly.
110. Gather some photographs and wrap twine around.
11.  Insert in bag for gift giving.

Do you love pocket scrapbooking? I am complettly smitten with this method of recording memories and absolutely delighted to have Kat Benjamin as a new member of our design team. Her layouts are a fantastic mix of color and style. I know you will enjoy her artwork as much as I do.



In Kat's own words: "I intentionally saved Week 12, which included the first day of Spring, to make with Curtsey Boutique products. So many of the products in the shop are perfect for this time of year.  I love the bright, fun-colored doilies and shipping tags, as well as the sparkly butterflies!

We are taking a brief pause from all the holiday festivities to share this lovely layout by Alyssa.

Alyssa shares, "My brother took this amazing photo of my nephew, and it just begged to be scrapped.  I wanted to created a layout with lots of layers without detracting from the photo.  My stash of perfectly neutral products from the store fit the need perfectly."
