Yay!  It’s Friday!!

Even though some superstitious folks think Friday the 13th could be unlucky, we are feeling super lucky to have Allison Waken as our Guest Designer for January!  Her work has always been a personal inspiration and her simple style consistently stands out.  Allison tells us a little about herself and then walks us through her layered layout using the January “Love Notes” kit.

This page is celebrating my sixteenth anniversary this month. We took this photo a couple months ago but I figured if I was sitting down to make a page I’d get this done now!

I loved the paper in this month’s kit SO much. I layered it in the corner and added in some of the fun paper pieces and embellishments.

Layering is my favorite way of adding a lot to a page while still maintaining somewhat of a minimalist look.

I finished off the page with a little paper piece in the corner with the date and a small sentence of journaling.

I love Allison’s page…a perfect example of her signature style!  Check out her Blog for more and come back in a couple weeks for more from our talented Guest!  Thanks for stopping by today and thank you to Allison for sharing a piece of your personal life with us through paper and embellishments!
