Hi friends! I'm here to share this week's assignment (and my last assignment) for Hip Kit Club. My final week I got to do my most favorite thing -- play with mixed media! Here's my layout:
And here are a few close ups:
As you can see I used bright colors and added some white heat embossing over the top...
...some layers and thread...
...and a few embellishments for the win.
I also made a process video, if that suits your fancy!
Hi friends! I am here to share my most recent layout for Hip Kit Club -- a Mixed Media Monday layout using the February 2018 kits! Here is my layout:
This is a fun layout about taking my daughter and her BFF to the MJ Live concert in Chicago. They had so much fun! It was a secret! In fact, when this photo was taken they still didn't know what was going on, OR why we thought they should wear their MJ gear. :-) Here are a few close ups:
I used the Dina Wakley acrylic paint to add some color to my background. Also, I did some stitching and added embellishments from this month's kits.
I made a video of my process, if that suits your fancy!
Hi friends! I'm here to share my most recent assignment for Hip Kit Club. This week it was all about love and hearts! I was able to work with the sketch this week too. Here is my take on the sketch using the February 2018 Hip Kit Club Kits.
And here is the sketch:
I used two photos instead of one, and the stars became hearts, but I think it still remains pretty true to the sketch. I think I used every kind of heart! It was kinda fun. Here are a few close ups:
I loved putting together this layout about the fun we had making Valentine's day slime for her friends. I made a process video if that suits your fancy.
HI friends! For this weeks Hip Kit Club assignment, I got to work with the awesome January 2018 kits and a great sketch by fellow DT member Irit. Here is my take on the sketch:
Here is the sketch:
And here are a few close ups:
I did a little fussy cutting for the hearts! I followed the sketch pretty much -- except more photos. :-) I used my hexagon punch and grabbed some black and white, yellow, green, and peachy-pink papers. I love these colors together!
I stitched around some of the hexagons, and added some butterflies and hearts around the page.
I used a HKC exclusive card from the PL kit -- but I fussy cut the important parts (the pears and the tea). This helped make the card work -- even with three photos. I also made a process video if that suits your fancy!
Hi friends! Here to share my most recent assignment for Hip Kit Club -- and a process video. My assignment this week was to use the Main Kit only. I am using the 2018 January Main kit for this layout. I started with a gorgeous cut file by Kim Watson -- available under the cut files tab here.
I decided to go big or go home with this one and I cut it out as big as possible. Then I backed it with the rainbow Hip Kit Club Exclusive paper found in the main kit (also designed by Kim Watson). I cut the cut file into two parts so that I have it go off the edge of the paper on two sides.
I stitched around the flower cut file with several colors of floss -- and I love how that turned out!!!
To finish off the layout, I used the Hip Kit Club exclusive die cut ephemera -- and then fussy cut a few extra flowers from the opposite side of that rainbow paper. I also added a few black and white elements from the Vicki Boutin stickers included in the kit.
I also made a video of my process, if that suits your fancy.
Hi! Stopping by to share my layout for Sketch Friday using the 2018 January Hip Kit Club Kits. Here is my take on the sketch.
And here is Jessica's Sketch!
My most favorite item in the kits this month are these Hip Kit Club Exclusive Die Cuts designed by Kim Watson. They are found in the main kit. So I used almost all of them on this project!
I started by using the Distress Oxide inks included in the Color Kit to make a circle on my page. First I added a bit of water to the ink and used the packaging technique. When that dried, I used the inks and the stamp from the kit to stamp over the top!
I used several Vicki Boutin stickers to add pops of black and white throughout the layout as well. I like the way this brings out the black and white photo.
I also used a few of the AC translucent phrase stickers from PL kit.
Finally I used the Vicki Boutin phrase Thickers found in the Embellishment Kit for my title. I really like how this one turned out! I also made a video of my process if that suits your fancy!
Hi Friends! Hope the first week of 2018 has been kind to you! I'm here to share my Hip Kit Club assignment with you for this week. I got to work with the 2017 December Kits and a sketch by Irit Landgraf. Here is the sketch:
And here is my take on the sketch:
The December kits are full of items from Crate Paper's Good Vibes collection, Pink Fresh Studio stars, and Vicki Boutin's ephemera pack -- AND I USED THEM ALL! (well, not literally all of the embellishments, but several items from each pack)! 😀 As I was looking through the embellishments from both packs, I kept finding oranges and greens. And then I found this butterfly!
Those colors, the cork items, and this butterfly helped me find a color focus. There are so many items in the kits to use, it was nice to have a focus. 😀 I pulled out everything I could find in those colors and got busy. Scroll to the bottom for my process video, or continue if you want to read about it.
The layers in the sketch inspired me to create a LO with a ton of layers behind my photo. Die cuts, frames (love those frames) and stickers! I didn't use any patterned paper on this layout! Here are a couple more close ups:
For the title I used a die cut and a sticker -- Awesome Moments. And this was an awesome everyday moment. As much as I have enjoyed creating Christmas projects over the last couple of months, it was great to get back to scrapping the everyday moments that I love!
I made a video of my process if that suits your fancy!
Hi! I hope everyone has had a great holiday season! I am ready for 2018, are you? Today I am sharing a project that I made using the December 2017 Hip Kit Club kits and a HKC sketch by fellow DT member Anna Komenda. Here's the sketch:
I used one of the HKC Exclusive papers found in both the main kit and the paper add-on. Fellow DT member Irit Landgraf designed it and these flowers are divine! I'm not sure why I chose flowers for a boy layout with a Christmas-y theme (other than I love it) -- but it totally worked! My grandson is eating Christmas cookies -- and loving them. :-)
I replaced the snowflakes from the sketch with stars. There are tons of stars in this months kits. I used Pink Fresh Studio puffy stickers and also their stitched layered stars. I layered behind the photos with exclusive cards from the PL kit. I added a few extra splatters and sequins for good measure.
Here is a look at that exclusive paper by Irit .
For my title, I fussy cut "YAY" from a sticker on Crate Paper's Good Vibes sticker sheet included in the December PL kit. I used a die cut from the ephemera pack for the word "Delicious". And I did some more fussy cutting with a exclusive card included in the PL kit. "Day" is also from the Good Vibes collection and included in the Main kit. It was fun to put together all of the different font combinations for this title!
I also made a video of my process if that's something that suits your fancy.
Thanks a lot for stopping by! I will see you again soon -- on to a great 2018!
HI friends! Back again with another layout using the 2017 November Hip Kit Club kits. I have really enjoyed working with these kits and I still have so much left! This week my assignment was to work with a sketch. Here is my take on the sketch.
And here are a few close ups!
I also made a process video, if that suits your fancy!
I used quite a few Shimmerz products on this one! Next time you order Shimmerz from Shimmerz Paints, if you mention my name in the comment section, you will get a little surprise freebie in your order!
Thanks so much for stopping by! See you again soon!
