Album Dashboard Pages

Hi Everyone, Karen here! I live in Northern California, and we are having our hottest summer in a century. Makes a great time to start crafting a second album for my first granddaughter and the first album for the newborn granddaughter. Today's post is about the Planner Essentials dashboard pages I created with the Cute & Whimsical dies as embellishments. 

The first page is for the first granddaughter. To create this page:

  1. Die cut the page base using Planner Essentials 56 and the Evening Rose Paper.

  2. Cut five sizes of stitched and regular circles from the paper and splash them on the page. The printing on my page is mostly from printing on my computer.

  3. Cut and assemble the adorable Caterpillar and adhere to the page base.

  4. Cut the ticket from the Planner Essentials 56, and stamp on the end ticket "Live, Love, Sparkle" from the Tickets set. Adhere that to the page. 

  5. Cut several Floral Mini's flowers and sprinkle them on the page. I used diamond dots for the centers.

  6. Add reinforcements backed with 64mm Double Sided Adhesive.

  7. Add some gelly pen dots in a couple of locations.

The second page is for my second granddaughter who was born in April 2024. The steps for this page follow:

  1. Die cut the page base using Planner Essentials 56. I used some tie-dye paper I had in my stash.

  2. Cut a yellow strip of paper from the Pretty Pastels collection and die-cut the birthdate using the Classic Alphabet dies. I backed them with 64mm Double Sided Adhesive to make them easy to apply to the yellow paper. 

  3. Cut a couple of tickets from Planner Essentials 56. Cut the baby feet into the tickets. The baby feet are in the Large Envelope Pocket set. Also, cut a couple of other strips of paper. Adhere to all on the page base.

  4. Stamp "You are so loved" from the Favorite Humans set on the corner of the page. 

  5. Cut and assemble the butterfly from the Butterfly set and adhere it onto a stitched circle around the tickets and strip of paper from step 2 above.

  6. Cut several Floral Mini's flowers and sprinkle them on the page. On this page, I again used diamond dots for the centers.

  7. Add reinforcements backed with 64mm Double Sided Adhesive.

  8. Add some gelly pen dots in a couple of locations.

Thank you for stopping by today!  

Craftily yours,

Karen
