BODIE LIGHT - May 26, 2011 - Outer Banks, North Carolina JOURNALING: General Information - Bodie Lighthouse observation trail PHOTOS: Images by Shetzers Photography at http://www.shetzers.com SUPPLIES USED: Lighthouse cut file by LisaJane at FileKutz SKU LK00327 http://filekutz.com/shop/lighthouse/, BasicGrey Granola and Basics White patterned paper, Stickles Waterfall glitter, Stampabilities Black ink, Tim Holtz Distress ink in Faded Jeans, Doodlebug Design paper frills in Lily White, Diamond Glaze, Sand paper, mini pop dots, Recollections mini round gems, Recollections faux pearls, Autumn Leaves For the Record journaling stamp, Tsukineko Goose Bumps, Cricut Expression, Sure Cuts a Lot software, Bernard MT Condense font TECHNIQUE TIP: This wonderful file from LisaJane at Filekutz matched the photo of me in front of the Bodie lighthouse so well, that I knew that I just had to use it. I wanted a fairly simple layout in terms of patterned paper but wanted to recreate the comotion that is always found near the seashore with breaking waves and lots of birds. I decided to cut out several extra birds and waves from the cut file and re-create a seashore on this page. A little glitter and diamond glaze to mimic the water and a little round gem to mimic the light in the lighthouse and I was all set.
FEELING FROSTY - July 14, 2010 - Fairbanks, Alaska JOURNALING: We visited the Ice Museum with its fantastic ice sculptures and watched a demonstration on how the ice is carved from huge chunks with power tools. I could not convince Matt to take a nap in the ice house. PHOTOGRAPHS: Angela Shetzer of Shetzers Photography {http://www.shetzers.com} SUPPLIES USED: BasicGrey Granola patterned paper, Kraft cardstock, Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Faded Jeans, Stampabilities Black Ink, Doodlebug Designs Paper Frills in Lily White, EK Success Corner Rounder, Gel Writer, Sheer Shimmer Spritz in Frost, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Denim blue, Liquid Pearls in White Opal, Stickles in Star Dust, Diamond Glaze, Letter Stencils, Cricut Expression with MSSeasonal cartridge, SCAL with snowflake and journal tag svg shapes TECHNIQUE NOTES: I'm sure you are like me and have lots of those plastic letter templates laying around. I decided that I wanted to use on this layout so I went about "building" my title of Feeling Frosty. I started out by tracing the letters on my kraft background paper with a pencil. I lightly erased the pencil marks so they would not show through on my final image. Then I traced all the outlines of the letters with small dots using my Liquid Pearls. Once that was dry, I filled the inside of the letters with my Star Dust Stickles. After even more drying time, I filled in the letters with Diamond Glaze to give them so dimension and shine. Perfect title with no alphabets or Cricut needed.

LARGE ANIMAL RESEARCH STATION (LARS) - July 10, 2010 - Fairbanks, Alaska JOURNALING: We walked around the L.A.R.S. to view all the animals PHOTOGRAPHS: Angela Shetzer of Shetzers Photography {http://www.shetzers.com} SUPPLIES USED: Bazzill Black cardstock, DCWV World Traveler patterned paper, Bazzill stitch templates, Stampabilities Black Ink, Fiskars Threading water border punch, American Crafts precision pen in Black, Tsukineko Goose Bumps, Sketch by Template Tuesday on JessicaSprague.com, Magnets, Floss TECHNIQUE NOTES: I think stitching is a great addition to almost any page and its well worth the increased time it takes to do the layout. For this layout, I started off with the Bazzill stitch template for the long stitched border on the right. As much as I love the designs for the Bazzill templates, I always feel that they are a bit blocky and produce an uneven stitch. To fix this, I start by punching the template onto my paper and then when all done with the template, I go back and punch a hole in the middle of two template holes. The result is a much smaller stitch and smoother lines especially on curves. Don't be afraid to modify your templates and add your own personal touch to your pages.
SNOWY COMMUTE- November 24, 2010 - Haines, Alaska JOURNALING: During a snow storm, this Bald Eagle takes flight. PHOTOS: Bald Eagle images by Shetzers Photography SUPPLIES USED: Based on June 1 page sketch by SketchSupport.com, Patterned Papers from DCWV's Lodge pack, Diamond Glaze, EZ Dots adhesives, Stampabilities ink (Brown & Black), Brown ric rac ribbon, Dress It Up Tiny Wilderness button, Michaels Stud Embellishments, Epiphany Crafts Bubble Caps, Carolees Creations Tiny Worn retro Alpha, Hero Arts Circular Design Stamp, Studio G Snowflake stamp, Kaiser Craft Grid stamp, Tim Holtz Antique Linen distress ink TECHNIQUE TIP: When I saw this beautiful paper from DCVW, I knew I had to use it on my last layout of the Haines Bald Eagles. The silver stampiing into the paper with the wing patterns matched the natural woodsy mood that I wanted for this layout. A minimum of embellishments helps both the paper and the wonderful photo stand out to showcase our national bird.
ALASKA PIPELINE - July 10, 2010 - Fairbanks, Alaska JOURNALING: We drove north of Fairbanks to visit an elevated section of pipeline. PHOTOGRAPHS: Matt & Angela Shetzer of Shetzers Photography {http://www.shetzers.com} SUPPLIES USED: Bazzill Black cardstock, DCWV World Traveler patterned paper, BasicGrey Basics white patterned paper, Cricut Expression with My World and Hey Dude cartridges, SCAL software with svg border cut, CK Deco Font, Recollections Boutique Fleur Gems, Black Diamond Stickles, Ranger Black Enamel, Doodlebug Designs Paper Frills in Black and Ladybug, Stampabilities Black ink TECHNIQUE NOTES: I'm not really an "industrial" look scrapper, but the hard cold steel of the pipeline in my photos just called out for that type of a layout. I started out with a plain sheet of black cardstock for my background and added some grey patterned paper that I cut scalloped edges on to mimic the round pipeline. I cut out pieces of an informational flyer that I had picked up and "saved" to add some interesting facts about the pipeline. I then cut a few oil related pieces from some cricut cartridges and added some Black Diamond Stickles and Ranger's Black enamel as some imitation oil drops and I was all finished. Don't forget that not all photos have to be in a predetermined size such as 4 x 6. My larger pipeline worked great as a panoramic as the sky and grass did not add much but a very long pipeline captured the feeling of the seemingly neverending pipeline.
DISTANT SHORES - July 6, 2010 - Top of the World Highway, Alaska JOURNALING: We had no idea that our trip to Alaska would grow to be over 5 months long. We stayed so long that the snow forced us to take the ferry out instead of driving. July 6 to December 3, 2010 PHOTOGRAPHS: Matt & Angela Shetzer of Shetzers Photography {http://www.shetzers.com} SUPPLIES USED: PageMaps March, 2011 sketch; DCWV Natural cardstock; Array parchment cardstock; Gartner Airplane Voyage patterned paper; BasicGrey Manila Brief patterned paper; Kraft cardstock; Judikens Treasure cube rubber stamp; Stampin Up Sanded rubber stamp; Cricut Expression w/ 50 State cartridge; SCAL software; Britannic Bold & CK Letter Home fonts; Pennant and tag svg; Doodlebug Design Paper Frills in tangerine; Bazzill Just the Edge in Rio; American Crafts Precision Pen; Stampabilities Brown and Black ink; Tim Holtz distress ink in Antique Linen and Spiced Marmalade; Floss; Twine; Buttons; Alpha beads TECHNIQUE NOTES: In this layout, I really wanted to create a feeling that showed how long we explored, but really how little of the great state of Alaska that we actually saw. I used the Cricut 50 states cartridge to cut out the shape of Alaska and then using Google Maps, I placed alpahbet beads to coordinate with everywhere that we spent at least one night. I used the same alphabet beads to create a legend that gave all the important details of location name and dates. When you are on vacation, don't forget to take photos of those road side signs. What an easy way to make your photos do your journaling for you.
