The other exciting thing is the reveal of the July kit!! EEK!!

I used some of the Elle's Studio papers from the 6x6 papers to layer behind my photo along with some of the Fancy Pants corrugated paper

I machine stitched 2 triangles of one of the 12 x 12 papers to opposite corners of my layout.

The exclusive floral paper is so gorgeous!! I fussy cut some of the flowers out and tucked them around my photo. I added wood veneer and a dusting of the sequins. Here is a little close-up.

Here is the full layout.

Clique Kits

I am the guest Designer for the month of June over at the Clique Kits blog and I have a post up today.

I hope you will pop over and say Hi!!

Here are a couple sneak peeks.

Clique Kits May Pep Rally

Hi there and welcome!  I am joining some of the DT and members of Clique Kits to share some projects that we have created using the May kit  "Northern Lights". It's always fun to see all the different projects created from the same kit.

The beautiful Kit features Fancy Pants Atwell collection and Basic Grey's Urban Luxe collection.

I had a lot of fun creating my layout. I used a BG paper as my background and the strips at the top and bottom are also BG. The green photo mat is Fancy Pants paper.

I used a cut file from Just Nick to anchor my photo and embellishments. The cut file was backed with BG paper and I added messy stitching for some added texture.

The whole design of my layout was based on a sketch from Creative Scrappers.. I'm so glad they are back!!

Here are a couple of closeups.

Here is the list of everyone on the blog share today. Come hop along and check out all the fabulous projects!! Don't forget to comment along the way for your chance in winning a May kit of your very own!

Sparkle and Shine Challenge #29

Morning everyone!!

Last weekend I was at my home away from home....Memories Manor in Michigan so I had some extra time to create a layout for the latest challenge at Sparkle and Shine Challenge..

For this challenge we are sponsored by the amazing Create A Smile Stamps! The winner of our challenge will receive a $25 gift card to the online store and will be asked to be our Guest Designer for next month.  Very cool...right?

Here is our photo inspiration for today.

I was inspired by the beautiful flowers so made sure that flowers made an appearance onto my layout. Not a problem at all...lol! 

The Happy Place collection by Fancy Pants was perfect for this challenge.

For Christmas my youngest son bought my Mom a huge bag of Smarties and I captured this photo of her hanging onto them so nobody else could grab them!! Too funny!

Cardstock: AC

PP, Ephemera, Stickers: Fancy Pants

Alphas: AC, 7 Paper

Sequins: PPP

Mist: Heidi Swapp

Ink: Memento

Other: twine

I sure hope you will play along!! Can't wait to see how you are inspired.

November Clique Kits Pep Rally

Hi there and welcome!  I am joining some of the DT and members of Clique Kits to share some projects that we have created using the November kit Tapestry.
There is a challenge every month and for November it is: Anything Goes. Yay!!

I really, really love this collection by We R Memory Keepers. The colours are so rich and gorgeous!

 

This layout will go into the calendar that I give my Mom for Christmas so it can't be too dimensional but all I needed to add for extra texture was some of the beautiful ephemera and one of the free cut files that you receive when you are a Clique kit subscriber.

 

 

Here is the lineup for the hop. I hope you are inspired and please comment for a chance to win one of these gorgeous kits!

Clique Kits - October Pep Rally

Well it is time for another Pep Rally at Clique Kits. Good morning everyone! Yes I know that I have been MIA for awhile. These last few months have been a whirlwind but I will get into that in a different blog post.

I just had to join in with the Pep Rally this month now that I am able and had the time. They are so much fun and it's inspiring to see what everyone else has created with their kits!
You should have arrived here from Evi's fabulous blog.

October's kit was called "Funfetti" and yes it is totally fun!

Here is my layout using an adorable PinkFresh Studio paper as my base. It made it so quick and easy to create a layout.

 

I made feathers from the gorgeous Crate Paper Vellum and embellished with the wood veneer and some flair from my stash.

 

 

Isn't this alpha from PinkFresh amazing??

 

 

The gold confetti sequins are so perfect. Love them! I added some Pebbles felt clouds from my stash too.

 

Here is the whole line up for the hop. I know you will enjoy all the fabulous inspiration!

Palm Love

This past week I pulled out my May kit from Clique Kits and made another layout using the kit and also the sketch from Boys Rule.

The die cut that came with the kit was so fabulous so I definitely had to use it! I backed all of the spoked circles with patterned paper from the kit which is from Amy Tan's "Rise and Shine" collection.

I really love Palm trees and this variety I just found so cool!!

Other than the thickers and the enamel dots everything was from my Clique kit.
