HKC Cuties

|
Hi guys!  A quick layout share using the March Scrapbook Kit from Hip Kit Club, along with a few items from the Color Kit. I'll be honest, it took many many many tries to get this layout made.  First I water colored part of the cut file (it's a background file), then I used the cut as a stencil, then I was going to use white for the background....ugh.  Then I found this lovely...

HKC WEEKLY CHALLENGE

|
The Hip Kit Club Member Forum on Facebook offers weekly challenges that encourage you to use your kits and play along.  The challenge for this past week (March 18-24) was based on a sketch provided by the lovely Ashley Horton. I did a loose interpretation, keeping the elements across the middle of the page horizontally.  I used Ashley's cut file as a stencil on Pinkfresh paper...

HKC Never Stop

|
Sometimes the right things show up at the right time and it's like serendipity; all the things fall into place.  That's how I felt about the Hip Cut Club cut file from Kim Watson.  I love using butterflies on my layouts, especially since I have a girl and she thinks butterflies are the best :) I cut the butterflies from a piece of AC DIY Shop vellum; I liked the book print and it just...

Hip Kit Club Doer

|
Hello and Happy Friday!  I took a few days off during our Spring Break and I'm back with a brand-spankin-new layout I made with the March Kit from Hip Kit Club. There are a ton of beautiful exclusive papers in the scrapbook kit this month, but for this page I stuck with the Pinkfresh line; I have had this photo of my girly from a few years back just sitting around but never scrapped it.  I...

Gossamer Blue Hello Happy Day

|
Hello!  I'm sharing this shiny (and reflective) layout featuring March kits from Gossamer Blue.  I used Main Kit Add-on #2, Bits & Pieces, and the Life Pages kit. The color of the truck in the picture worked perfectly with the floral in the Pink Paislee acetate piece. I know I've scrapped this photo (either in my Life Pages album or on another page, haha!), but this was such a...

Gossamer Blue Lucky

|
Hello my friends!  I'm sharing another project using the gorgeous Gossamer Blue March kits.  I created another mixed media layout using gesso, Distress products and Shimmerz products to pull my layout together. I started with a very thin layer of gesso and then created my photo mat while that dried.  I started adding the Amy Tangerine acetate pieces and other embellishments and...

Gossamer Blue Happy Souls

|
Happy Reveal Day my friends!  My first layout for March features items from the Main Kit, Main Kit Add-on #2, Life Pages Add-on #3 and the Life Pages kit. I used gesso and Shimmerz paints on the background, then flicked some black spray ink on to tie in the few black elements I used to embellish. Aren't the Shimelle acrylic clouds from the Life Pages kit so dreamy?  I also...
