Celebrate the Everyday! by Mik Godinho

Celebrate the Everyday! by Mik Godinho

We are in the habit of taking photos of our birthdays, but have you ever thought of gathering together for a single photo with the most important people in your life?

2020 was a year of great learning and one of them, for me, was that I must value every minute I spend with the people I love. I must celebrate each day, celebrate each smile, each hug, each phone call.

I love to celebrate my birthday and I also love to celebrate the birthdays of the people I love. When I saw the Hello today collection from Simple Stories I was sure it was perfect for my birthday’s sn@p.

The idea is to select a photo for each birthday girl, thus representing the day and bringing everyone together in the same snap.

       

       

I started using pieces of the papers “Hickory” and “January” to make my background. Then I used a frame from Chipboard frames, the months cards and calendar, chipboards from 6x12 chipboards, diecuts, enamels, and foam stickers to embellish my cover.

I decorated all 4x6 and 3x4 cards.

The idea is to change the cards and the cover every month.

On the back of the 3x4 cards I wrote the name and date of the birthdays so I can know which photos I will add.

For extra texture on the bellow of my cover, I used 3D foam stickers where I added “Celebrate” and “everyday”.

           

         

I glued pockets behind the cover to keep 4x6 and 3x4 cards. That way I was able to store all the cards and I will be able to change them when their month arrives.


“Collect beautiful memories” is exactly what I want with this snap.

Bring together in a single album all the people I love celebrating your life.

       

       

For each month I made a divider. To make the tabs I used the names that you can find in the sticker book. Adding more photos is always a good option, right? So I made this one.

          

        

To make an interactive page, I removed two pockets from this page, it's super easy and fun.

       

       

I had a lot of fun creating this album. Hello today collection is super versatile, and I'm sure that it will help you document your 2021 photos in a happy and easy way.


I hope you’ve got some inspiration from this idea and enjoyed it!

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!
