Cards with Sketches

by Lindsey.

I've been working on cards lately so I thought I'd post a few card sketches - My intent is to also try these as layout sketches. If you use them and would like to share, please upload in TTT's User Gallery and come to the board to let us know!

Transparency Technique

TTT Tip

Ever wonder where you're going to fit journaling into your mini album? Well, pull out your TTT transparencies! Instead of leaving pictures out, leave your journaling out. Out on a TTT transparency that is!! For one on my mini albums I used TTT coaster blocks to include my title, journaling, and date. I didn't have to sacrifice any pictures!

For my 4th of July mini album I used TTT coaster blocks to include fun elements and journaling.

The possibilities are endless so have fun including TTT transparencies into your next mini album!

Transparency Layouts

Transparent Tuesday!
Each month the TTT design team creates layouts, cards and other projects using TTT transparencies on them. They always do such a great job and it's great to see all the different ways that the transparencies can be used!! Here is what they created this month:

Welcome to A-U-G-U-S-T!! I hate to think that summer's almost over, so let's think of more ways to celebrate in the last month of summer vacation, ok?

Layout themes

August shapes
sunshines all around!
cute cupcakes and candies
fruits and vegetables everywhere!
water drops
circles
waves


Photography ideas
shots of garden-picking
water fun - get your underwater camera!
cover up - get shots under towels, the camera or the subject
upside down - the camera or the subject :)
