This is a post in which I share my love of October Afternoon's Boarding Pass line. I had a chance to work with it for the summer CHA trade show and made this travel layout and card:
This was one of the easiest layouts I've ever done. I printed three 4" X 3" photos, printed journaling on a 12" X 5" strip of cardstock, stuck my photos on the strip, added the "San Francisco" label cut from the 8" X 8" paper pad, glued everything to the "Sydney" paper, added two pieces of Chip 'n Stick embellished with navy-blue jute, and popped a label sticker from the Word Stickers at the bottom. As soon as I was done I decided this was my new favorite layout.
This card was similarly easy, just strips cut from papers in the 8" X 8" pad with two Chip n' Stick embellishments added.
After I finished my CHA projects I got more inspired and made this heritage layout (yes, that's a copy of my grandfather's family's passport photo, and yes, those are copies of his actual embarkation card and and another document):
Again, easy! I glued the 8" X 8" map paper onto the "Amsterdam" paper and then added embellishments, journaling strips, and my title. The title stickers, label sticker, chipboard polaroid frame, chipboard ship, and chipboard circle/star are all Boarding Pass and the line on the map is more navy jute and brads. After I was done, "Emigrate" became my new favorite layout, in case there was any doubt!
I also used Boarding Pass for my August Write.Click.Scrapbook. gallery layout (appearing here on August 1st...be patient!).
I have a zillion more ideas for this line, so stay tuned. Some of those ideas may land here soon.

I so love these layouts. The Boarding Pass line fits so perfectly on these pages.
Wonderful projects! I especially love the idea of using travel-themed papers for a LO about immigrating. Thanks for the inspiration!
