SUMMER LOVIN' SNAP BINDER/SIMPLE STORIES

Hello, friends! Nicole here with a fun summer SN@P album I created using the Sweet Summer collection. I was excited to try the 4x6 SN@P Binder out and I love it! The Sweet Summer collection is so fresh and fun, and perfect for documenting those summer memories near the water. We have gone to the Outerbanks a few times and I am using my favorite photos from both of those trips!

To begin, I used my Cannon Selphy to print a variety of 4x6 and 3x4 photos. I wanted a mixture of big photos and a few small photos.

I cut the striped patterned paper from the 6x8 paper pad to measure 4x6 and embellished it with a variety of chipboard, stickers, and a decorative brad to create a fun intro page for the album. LOVE the chipboard waves. It's so fun!

I used a variety of embellishments to fill in the white space on the photo. I love how fun and playful this page is...it just screams SUMMER!

I cut the orange patterned paper to measure 4x6 and then I cut the circle patterned paper to measure 4x6. Next, I folded the paper in half and sealed the left-side and right-side of the folded pocket using red tape. Then, I used a hole punch at the top center and mounted the pocket onto the orange patterned paper to pull the pocket page together. I added a few fun embellishments and tags inside the pocket. After that, I added the foam stickers and decorative brad to the pocket.

The chipboard pale and shovel is darling! I decided to use it to frame the photo at the bottom and then added the clouds at the top with the tag to pull this together. This album is simply fun! I just love it.

I used the blooms to fill in the white space across the top of the photo. Next, I embellished the center of the flowers using decorative brads. To complete this page, I added a few stickers, chipboard, and the decorative brad at the bottom of the page.

To create this interactive page, I used a 6" round plate and traced it onto the patterned paper. Next, I used a page protector to help line up the circles and punched them out. I added the die cuts, chipboard and stickers to embellish the page.

Although the album seems very simple, I love all the cluster of embellishments and layers. And the rainbow color scheme makes me happy.

For this spread, I used the large journaling bit to fill in the white space at the bottom of the photo. Next, I added the chipboard beach ball and the decorative brad to add dimension. I clustered a few stickers at the top of the photo to help frame the photo and fill in the white space.

I hope you found this Summer Lovin' album inspiring! I had so much fun putting my favorite summer memories in this adorable 4x6 album. Thank you for visiting today and be sure to check out my full process video on my YouTube channel!
