Hello hello and welcome back to the Summer Love Mini Course! Today Team Awesome and I are diving into the meat of our mini albums by sharing our first two Summer Love journaling spreads.
The purpose of these pages (and the album, really) is to give you an easy, non-overwhelming way to capture your favorite thing about summer. You can think of your summer loves as summer bucket list items, faves or summer highlights – it’s really up to you.
Summer Love | Summer Loves 1 & 2 Pages 5-8
Here’s a look at the Summer Love 6×6 Mini Album templates for pages 5-8:
By Lynnette
Here’s a look at my page 5-8 layouts. Both of my Summer Loves this week happen to items from my summer bucket list but I fully expect other weeks they won’t be. That’s what I love about mini albums like this – they can really evolve as you go.
Because I’m keeping my Summer Love journaling cards clean and simple, I’m balancing the opposite side of the two-page spread with a more scrappy embellished page. Since I’m not sure how I’m going to bind my finished album just yet, I may end up swapping some of these pages right or left depending on what works for the overall flow of the album, but for now, I’m really liking it so far! These pages feature a combo of Zoe’s Hello Summer and By the Seaside kits and Kristin’s Ready for Summer kit.
By Sara
I really love the way Sara’s mixing up large blended photos with a more consistent neutral background on her other pages. It’s a nice clean look.
By Jen
Jen’s rocking the hybrid and it’s so fun to see! I especially love her cutout pages and the fun lettering for her Love titles.
By Sherly
I absolutely love the way Sherly is using color and embellishments in her album. It’s really pulling all the pages together in such a beautiful way.
By Brittney
Brittney’s pages just scream summer fun to me and I love how she’s adding in additional photos where she needs them.
By Jennifer
Jennifer is really embracing the summer bucket list combo and it’s so fun! I especially love how she used the 6-block grid template on page 8 for numbered photos of items from her list. So cute!
Well that’s it from us today, but now we’d love to hear from you! How’s your Summer Love mini album coming along so far?
