Hello everyone!!
I'm back in my Traveler's Notebook today! This project has been super fun! I was a little hesitant to share it with you at first because it was so new to me, but it really is a fun size canvas to work with. Plus, the fact that I'm using a TN with patterned papers in it is just fun on its own!
I actually ended up with quite a bit of journaling on this page. I didn't originally intend for there to be so much journaling, especially since a few of the pages in this TN have little to none when it comes to journaling. The journaling card served as an embellishment piece as much as it was there to actually document the story. I needed some white space to offset the bright bold colors on the opposite page. Journaling served two purposes in this page!
I'm still not sure how many layouts I'll make with this kit, but I will link all the videos that pertain to this kit below:
- Unboxing: youtu.be/zet3qebxWkA
- Layout #1 - The Best is Yet to Come (pocket page): youtu.be/6u0o7CVPuU0
- Layout #2 - Our Great Adventure (pocket page): youtu.be/TDrLRkTlb80
- Traveler's Notebook - Raleigh Parks & Rec: youtu.be/Q7zxcxLiyCc
As I mentioned in the video, I do have some Traveler's Notebooks for sale in my Etsy shop at designbymelody.etsy.com - I can also make custom Traveler's Notebooks. They are easy to make, but if you don't want to try making your own, please let me know and I can custom make one for you from my shop!
If you are interested in seeing all the kits I've reviewed, I’ve got my Kit Review Resource Guide available for you, here is the link: designbymelody.wordpress.com/resources-and-tools
That's it for today! Thank you so much for joining me! As always, if you have any questions at all please let me know!

![Love Love Love | Stash Supplies + Elle’s Studio
Hello everyone!!
I came across this beautiful picture of Ernest and I. I absolutely love it. I was taking a selfie of us and he wouldnt look at the camera because he was too busy talking so I just took the picture anyways. I love the way hes looking at me, and I felt like I looked good that day (haha!) so I felt the photo came out really well. We dont have a ton of pictures of just us enjoying ourselves alone - this was a formal wedding for a friend we attended and Calen stayed home with my mom that night. That also happened to be my birthday so it was just a fun night all around!
To make this page I first had to figure out what background paper I wanted to work with. I had a stash kit Ive been working with on and off already put together so I figured I could pull supplies from there, but there were only 2 12x12 papers left in that kit and they just didnt work with this photo.
So I went to my Elles Studio stash (I keep it grouped together even though most of the rest of my stash isnt sorted by manufacturer) and started looking through papers. I found this cool burst or ray paper in the teal and white colors and felt it worked perfectly! The phot is all just in black and white so I really could pick any color to coordinate, but who doesnt love teal!?
Elles Studio has a ton of great products, if you have never checked out her shop, please do! The link is: https://www.shopellesstudio.com/ [This is so not sponsored, I just love her stuff!]
