Allison Davis Sketch with Summer Vibes
Hi everyone! Allison here with a layout using the awesome Summer Vibes collection and another sketch that combines traditional scrapbooking with the SN@P! Pocket Pages. I am actually, as this post goes live, sitting on a beach in Florida. What a perfect time to share a layout using Summer Vibes!
You can download the full sketch with measurements and placements here.
The left side of the sketch follows a traditional scrapbook design while the right side combines photos and cards with the SN@P! Pocket Page, Design 7.
Here is my layout based on the sketch:
For years Drew would watch The Huna, a perpetual wave you can surf on at our local aquatic center, with fear and wonder. I thought he would never really be interested in actually doing it. We call him “Safety Steve” because he is always so cautious and hesitant to try risky and new things. He surprised me though and finally asked if he could try it. He got up there and made it look so easy and at one point laid his head down in a very chill, relaxed pose. He conquered The Huna and I got a ton of great pictures in the process!
Summer Vibes was the perfect match to document Drew’s wave riding from the fun summer designs down the way the it matched the water in my photos. I love the colorful “Hello Summer” SN@P! Journal Page and thought it would be a great title/journaling spot for my layout.
I added some smaller photos near the title and journaling and added some fun embellishments like the washi tape, word stickers, enamel dots, and bradz.
I added another embellishment cluster similar to the clusters near the small photos to the bottom left photo.
On the right page I used photos, a 3 x 4” card, and a 6 x 12” piece with the SN@P! Pocket Page, Design 7. This Pocket Page is one of my favorites because of the big 6 x 12” pocket!
On the top photo I has some empty space on the right so I added the “Summertime” SN@P! card and used some hearts and word/phrase sticker to accent it.
For the middle pocket I used a 3 x 4” card with a 3 x 4” photo. Sometimes I like to use two smaller photos or elements in place of one 6 x 4” photo. In this case I thought “Easy, Peasy…” phrase was perfect for these photos. Drew made The Huna look so easy!
In the bottom pocket I used two 3 x 4” photos and added some chipboard and die cut embellishments.
I instantly fell in love with the big 6 x 12” piece with all the beach-y, summer-y phrases and knew I just had to use it! I added two small photos to some of the empty space at the top and kind of replicated the embellishment clusters from the left page to tie everything together.
I added another small photo in some space in the middle of the large 6 x 12 piece and created another little cluster of small embellishments.
I hope you all enjoy the new sketch and be sure to enjoy those last month of Summer!
