Hi, everyone, Sarah here. I’m always looking for ways to use digital products in a more traditional scrapbooking form. Today I’m going to share with you a few alpha sheets that I created using digital files from the TLP store. I love the idea of having sticker sheets ready to go, without having to worry about printing and cutting for a specific project. I can just go and grab one of these alphas, but unlike the stickers that you buy from a store these are extremely customizeable for your particular needs. I printed all of these stickers out on Avery White Sticker paper (which is acid and lignen free) and cut them with my Silhouette Portrait.
This first alpha was created using Doodled Paper Alphabet by Kate Hadfield. I looked at small sticker sheets put out in the traditional scrapbook world and a very popular format is to place three of each vowel (including Y) and two of each consonant, so that’s the format that I decided to use with this alphabet.
This next alphabet I created using the Sunkissed Alpha Pack by Just Jaimee. I really loved the color of this one so I decided to go with that. This time instead of just doing three of each vowel and two of each consonant I added one additional letter for each of the ever popular R, S, T, L, N, E choices.
This next alpha is from the Spring Rain Element Pack by Mommyish. I decided to just leave this one as is since it came as a single alpha sheet that was included in the pack. Of course, if you want, you could definitely cut these apart and change up how many of each letter you include.
This last one is not really an alpha but I decided it would be fun to do a number pack for my planner as well. For this one I created circle cutting lines the size that I need for my planner and then filled them with one of the papers from Leaky Rainbows by Gina Miller. I then placed the numbers from Date Circles by Paula Kesselring on top of each circle. This is a really fun way to customize any stamped alpha or number set.
I love finding different ways to use my digital files, even when I’m scrapbooking in a more traditional manner. Not only am I getting to use some of my favorite products, but because I’m printing and cutting these alphabets myself I’m able to customize how many of each letter I think I’ll need. And as an added bonus, if for some reason you didn’t print off enough, it’s easy to reprint a letter or two in the corner of another project. How do you use digital scrapbooking files in a more traditional scrapping scenario? I’d love to know.
