Hi everyone! Lisa with you today. I'm excited to share some cards I made with the fabulous new Life Documented Scrapbook collection. You didn't think it was only meant for use in the new planners, did you? :)

 

I always like to have "basic/generic" cards on hand — cards that can be used for any occasion — and this is the perfect collection to do that with. So let me show you the two cards I made to add to my stash...

 

First up is a card called "Today". I made it by layering a 3x4 card over a 4x6 card from the Journaling Card Set. Once I had those layers adhered, I added die cuts from the Bits & Pieces pack, chipboard pieces and enamel dots.

 

 

This next card, called "And Then...", uses the same concept of layered journaling cards, but this time I used four of them (two 4x6 and two 3x4). One of the 3x4s is actually the heart-shaped die cut and the other is the chevron pattern that fills the opening of the heart. I trimmed down the polka dot card so the solid border of the underlying 4x6 card makes it appear as if it's been matted.

 

 

I hope you've been inspired to use the Journaling Cards and embellishments from the Life Documented Scrapbook collection to make cards. Of course, they're equally fun to use to pretty up your planner or to make a layout or other project.
