This Was Amazing | Layle By Mail

 Hello Friends! 

I have a new layout to share with you all today ! It's called "This Was Amazing". You might not be able to see the title because I am just using a word strip stamp on the bottom of the layout. Something different. I thought it was cute ;)


I created this page using the Winter/Spring Season Pass collection - The pinks are so pretty in this collection and of course I had to use them for a cute sister page.  I used a hexagon cut file to cut out a hex shape for my layout. I wanted to use ALL the papers in this collection and this was perfect to add those left over pieces and to create something unique on a layout. 
I also stamped a few hearts on the dark pink paper and stamped the title This was amazing.

 

I added strips for my journaling and used a piece of white cardstock for the backing. 
It was a fun layout and of course I added lots of popdots and diecuts to finish the page with dimension. 

Thanks for letting me share today !

So Lovely | Layle By Mail

 Hello Friends! 

I am here today sharing a "lovely" page using the Season Pass 2.0 Winter Spring Collection. 
I was so inspired by the colors and the patterns in these valentine / love papers I had to use most of them on my page.  My nieces are pretty cute too ;) 



To start my page I used a piece of pink cardstock because I was using a white background. I wanted something to brighten my page and this was perfect. 
I cut a few pieces of 3x4 papers to add behind my picture and across the page. I used the die cuts to add some details and also dimensional adhesive to add sweet extras around my picture. 


I added rub-ons on the bottom part under my title and then at the top next to my tag. These rub-ons are so fun to use and add a little extra detail to a page or project. I hope you give them a try. 
I made my own title using my SIlhouette Cameo and added some distress ink on the bottom to give it some color instead of white. 
Adding a few strips of papers at the bottom just added extra color to my page. This paper is too cute not to use every single piece! 



I hope you have a wonderful February and don't forget to create some of those " Lovely " memories.

Winter Weather | Layle By Mail

 Hello Friends and Happy New Year! 


I created a layout this week about a winter storm in 2017. It was a while ago but it is still relevant today ;) Snow is something we get lots of here on the east coast of Canada and in 2017 It was a snow storm to remember. 
This layout is called Winter Weather. 

In 2017 my husband and I went on a little trip to Las Vegas to escape the cold winter weather. A few days before we were going to leave we heard an alert that the weather was going to be really bad with flight cancellations so we decided we should go home earlier. This picture was taken the day after the storm. 

I used the NEW Season Pass 2.0 collection WInter/Spring. The blues in this collection are so beautiful and have quite a variety of tones that make it match perfectly with my picture. Funny how that works so well ;) 


I added a few of the new Rub-ons on a tag for a little extra detail - those are so cute and versatile .. for sure an #addtocart item !  I also added some diecuts with dimensional adhesive to complete my layout. Are you surprised about dimensional adhesive? ;) 



Happy 2026 friends, and I cannot wait to share more projects using LBL products for you this year.

Grateful | Layle By Mail

It is snow and cold winter nights here on the East Coast and honestly it looks really pretty for Santa but for me I personally enjoy Palm Trees ;)



Today I am sharing a layout called "Grateful". It's a photo of my nephew and His Bear. He loves his little bear and takes him everywhere he goes.  Did you have a little bear growing up? I had a pink blanket and it was the perfect thing to keep me safe from monsters and ghosts that were hiding under my bed LOL! 


I used the Fall papers from the Season's Pass 2.0 Fall/Holiday Collection. I wanted to try something different with the stamps that came in the collection but I mostly use stamps for cards and not layouts but this was something different for me. 
Before I started stamping on my lined paper, I added small drops of paint and then added the leaves around those paint drops. It created something different which is what  I was looking for.


Adding layers to my layouts is one of my favorite things. I added shapes of leaves and some of the diecuts in the package. I added a light brown ink with a sponge to the edges just to add a bit of dimension. 


To add some journaling I printed on white cardstock using a typewriter font. I didn't want to use my own handwritting on this page and this font was perfect. I added a few more details such as sewing with a thick thread and I left it there for vision effect. Cute right?

I hope you enjoyed reading today and taking a peek at my latest layout. 

Happy Holidays to You and Your Families!

Let's Go on Vacation | Layle By Mail

 Hello Friends! 

I am here today to share something different from my usual layouts. I made this mini album using the Layle By Mail Postcards and Passports collection to showcase some pictures and journaling about my recent trip to Los Angeles.. I'll be adding pictures and journaling shortly to finish off this super cute mini. 

 

I used tons of diecuts with dimensional adhesive to give my project a 3 dimensional look. I always like the look of a project that has dimensions and textures.  To reinforce some pages such as the first and last page I used a piece of cardboard between the two layers of papers. Just to make it a bit stiffer and easier to hold as well.


This single piece of paper can create this mini album - I cut up all the individual tags and also used another piece of two from this collection but mainly this single sheet.


Lots of room for journaling, small spaces for 2x2 pictures and much more! 

I used Layle's digital files and printed them on sticker paper. 
I then added that to the cardstock. Ready for journaling!

 

 

 

The digital files are so versatile. You can use them for diecuts when printed on white cardstock, add them to sticker paper, or digital scrapbooking!

I also added the wordstrips to each page to add more details. These are so cute in a mini! 


This little project is perfect for those that love to create ;) 

I hope you have the inspiration to create your own little mini album. This can be used for so many adventures with family and friends to any part of the world ;)

The Little Details | Layle By Mail

Hello Friends! 


Our Fall season is in full force here on the East Coast and the colors are so beautiful.  As much as I love the fall colors I really love Sweater Weather! I created a layout using the Season Pass 2.0 Fall|Holiday Collection. Concentrating on the colors yellow, blue and some burgundy. Of course this paper collection matched my niece's weather perfectly ;) 


I did something a bit different on this layout. I didn't want to crop my photo so I left it as is and I used 3x4" cards and pattern papers to highlight my photo. It's okay to mix and match ;) 

I also wanted to add some kraft or beige color to frame my layout and papers. I had a piece of cardboard that I just cut and made it about 11x11 in size to frame my 12x12 layout. I then cut the blue flowered paper to frame the entire layout. I really like the way this looks. 


I did not want to use white cardstock so I cut up small strips of the striped paper to create my journal strips. I really like this because it goes quite well with the title card.  



Of course my page would not be complete without adding some of the matching Season Pass diecuts. 

I hope you have a wonderful end of October and you can enjoy some of those changing colors and if not maybe a Sweater!

OCT 31 | Layle By Mail

 Hello Friends! 


Don't you love this time of year? Here on the East Coast of Canada the leaves are changing color, the mornings are crisp and afternoons are nice and sunny. It's also the season of SOCKS! I love my comfy socks this time of year ;)
Although it is Fall in the air it is also time to start thinking about those Halloween Costumes. I have a cousin who LOVES Halloween. I had this picture of her from a few years back and although I did a layout with it once before it was hard not to do it again for that Halloween themed layout using the NEW Season Pass 2.0 Fall|Holiday Collection. 

Of course if you know by now I love my diecuts. This layout was no exception! Although this time I used different thickness of dimensional adhesive it gave my diecuts more dimensions. 

I also used one of Layle's favorite techniques and that is the doodled border around her papers ;)  It is not something I do often but when I want to add a little playfulness to my project I do add those little doodles. (Thanks Layle!) 

I wanted to add a little extra detail to my journaling instead of typed words or strips so I added some doodled lines and then added my journaling. It is a fun way to add little personal details to your page. Try It and Make sure you try a Halloween Layout with the NEW Season Pass collection.
