My all time favorite flair is the pop color flair …she has those in jest about every color!!! Love Love Love!!!

Pocket Scrapbooking Cards and Shaker Pockets

Hi Friends!

It’s Paula here with a few pocket scrapbooking cards and some shaker pockets I made. For the cards I just cut some cardstock to 3×4 and decorated with patterned paper and stamps and then added some sequins from the relish mixes in the shop…so cute!

I also added some of the awesome Disney flair and washi tape in the shop!!

For the shaker pocket I used a Simple Stories Photo Flip and added relish mix, a Disney flair and a few Disney punch out shapes. Then I sealed it with double sided tape and put some glitter washi tape on top of that. Easy peasy!

For the planner shaker pocket I used a Heidi Swap 3×4 card pocket and added relish mix and some Halloween shapes and then sealed it the same way…works perfectly!

Supplies Used:

Gold Glitter Washi Tape

Black Hearts Washi Tape

Hi Friends!

It’s Paula here to share my planner layout for this week with you.

I am using my MAMBI Happy Planner to plan out my week for my video, design team, and IG postings so I wanted to share how I am using some of the awesome planner items in The Crafty Pickle shop!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9i9fiNbRD4

I want my planner to be functional first and foremost but I also want it to be pretty and fun! First off I am loving the large planner clip to mark my page. It is so cute and functional! For this week’s layout I used the gold glitter washi to add some glitz and glam. I used some of the Fruity Pebbles Relish Mix and Amy Tangerine vellum hearts which go perfect with the colors for September in the planner. I also used some of the Sticky Pickle Spots as bullet points for my posting reminders. And finally I used some Close To My Heart stamps to make the layout fun!

I am trying to work on a few more pages in the Disneyland album that I and working on for my nieces and thought the Snapshot Memories Stamps with the Magic, Life Captured and the washi tape stamp would look so cool embossed with embossing powder and add a little gold to the page …here is a link to the Princess Gold embossing powder HERE And then this is the left side of the page with the kids hugging Anna and she is talking to them ..so sweet with my favorite flair pop of color, and then this stamp “The Stuff that Life is made of with some fun Relish also!!!

And then the other side I went gold crazy with this page with the kids getting the princesses autographs …such a special moment in time …love how the stamps worked for exactly what I needed for this page!!!

All of her washi tape is to die for when the store opens back up …you are going to want it all!!!!

Please check back to find out when the store is going to open back up after she moves!!!

Love Your Selfie Flair!!!

Hi Carrie here to share with you my latest project life page!!

This page is a 12×12 WRMK photo sleeve page. The paper collection I used for this layout is by Echo Park “Here and Now” by Lori Whitlock. I love the bright summer colors of this collection. I just celebrated my Birthday on the 17th of this month. I wanted to create a page about Me!

The new “Selfie” line of flairs by TCP are perfect for us scrapbookers to use when creating these kinds of layouts. We tend to scrapbook a lot about our kids and families, neglecting to make pages and preserve memories about ourselves.

I would encourage you to include a few “selfies” in your albums this year. I am in love with the new pickle relish sequin mixes that are now available in a variety of colors.

There are three different sized, slightly cupped, sequins in the relish mixes. The mix I used is called “rock candy” this mix actually has four sizes and is the perfect embellishment to add a pop of interest to your crafty projects!

Do not forget that the etsy store is closed for a little bit and will be opening soon …so be watching the blog for updates….thanks!!!
