Travellers Note Book - Rachel Lowe

Hello lovlies today I have a Travellers Notebook spread using the gorgeous Riga kit!

I tend to use my TN like a diary, documenting events that mean something to me in that moment. I took my daughter on a mother/daughter trip to Turkey, France and England knowing that soon she would be entering the adult world and we may not get the opportunity for many years. It was a special time for us, just the girls leaving the four boys at home to fend for them selves!

I have used the heart side of the CAPER paper and added sentiments to it from the chipboard and puffy stickers in the kit. I add machine sewing around the edge to create a border.
​

I cut a strip from the INSTINCT paper, I wanted the stripes going horizontally so you would get the ombre effect of the paper. I then created an embellishment cluster using the leather like banner and adding two of the die cuts leaves ties together with the twine included in the kit, I added a row of machine stitching to the twine stitching it in a position that was visually interesting (I did this before attaching my page to the TN insert page).

​

I used the peach and gold oval chipboard frame for my photo, perfect to fit the Eiffel Tower in! The rose gold puffy alphas are so beautiful that I had to use them for my Paris word. I finished this page off adding two of the die cut flowers with a drop of NUVO dew drop on each.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope I have inspired you in some way!

See you soon!
