Layout :: Spring

Hello hello!
Today I have a sort of monochromatic layout to share with you!
Here is the process of the layout!




And a closer look ;)

My original idea for this layout was to use some crepe paper behind the photos but I was feeling that so much. Much happier using the paper and vellum :)

I love the dimension of the wood pieces, I got these butterflies from Michaels and they are made by Recollections. And I don't think I'll ever get tired of my Martha Stewart butterfly punches!

I love this cute printable from the Silhouette store!

These BasicGrey stickers are perfect for adding small dates and titles :) 

Have you ever made a monochromatic page?

Autumn :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Hello hello! Yes it is totally May and I decided to do a Fall layout... I couldn't help it!
When I opened the Miss Maggie LBD kit I totally fell in love with the reds and of course it made me think about the Fall photos I still have to scrap. Here is a process video! And I apologize, some footage was corrupted, I tried everything I can to fix it, but nothing worked.





And a closer look at this page!

This one was so fun to make! I was finally able to use the leaves cut files I have for my Silhouette and I love all the different patterned reds and that red vellum polka dot paper!!

Sometimes a page just isn't complete without glitter ;)

Love all the layers!!!
That wraps up my Little Black Dress pages for May!

Project Life :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Today I am sharing my Project Life spread I made with the LBD Miss Maggie kit!
If you haven't read my last post yet, this spread will go to the right of the RESIN_LINK layout!

I totally love making these little cards for PL!

Way behind on project life! I am glad I'm not really working in perfect order, this way I'm not stressed about missing a week or so! 
Come back for my last LBD post for May! Can't wait to see what June brings :)

Resin :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Back with another Little Black Dress page!
This page is sort of a two page spread, it will be to the left of a Project Life spread that I will share with you tomorrow. But for now lets check out the 12x12 page!

IMG_4571-001
I had to scrap this photo of my first resin piece I made! I love the way the pinks and blue go so perfectly! I busted out some old Glimmer Mist and Distress Ink and got busy!

IMG_4573-001
Seriously love those fabric frames and love layering with them!

IMG_4574-001
And the clips! Crazy about those!

IMG_4575-001
I cut the title from one of the papers that came in the kit, stitched them on and love how they turned out!
I will be back with the Project Life part of this page! 
Don't forget to check out the LBD blog for more projects and inspiration with the Miss Maggie kit!

Cruisin' :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Back with my second layout for LBD!
Here is the making process!


And a closer look!

IMG_4584-001
So I've been wanting to stick these photos to some paper for the longest time now. I'm so glad to have finally scrapped them and I love the way it turned out! As you saw in the beginning of the video I showed a small stamp set and the paper I cut into strips, I stamped each letter... one by one... with some lyrics from the song "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen. When I lived in Las Vegas my friend Kristen and I loved to just cruise up and down the strip and act like children. I wanted to capture those moments in this layout by adding those lyrics, we would laugh at the song in the beginning and then started to sing it any time it came on. Just a little info behind this page and the reason for the lyrics :)

IMG_4588-001
I just love that chevron paper and cloud paper that came in the kit! I only have a tiny piece of the cloud one left and it is not going to waste!

IMG_4589-001
Don't forget to check out what the other LBD members have made with their kit and I will be back shortly with more!

Loved :: Little Black Dress Reveal

Welcome back!
Today I am sharing the first page I made with the Miss Maggie LBD kit.
Let's check out the making process :)



And a closer look!
IMG_4597-001
I totally love those Crate Paper frames that came in the kit, once I looked through them I knew right away which photo I wanted to use. Check out that stare!

IMG_4607-001
I decided to put some old stamps to use on this page, although those circles were in seasonal sets they still worked perfectly for the page! I always look though each stamp set even if they are Halloween or Christmas, you never know what you'll bump into!

IMG_4605-001
So when I first saw these clips online I didn't think it would ever be something I'm interested in. They look like bobby pins and I would have never thought to add them on a page. I am so so so glad they came in this kit though! They are to adorable and add a cute detail! This is, once again, a reason why I love kits. They make you think outside of the box and it challenges you to use product you wouldn't purchase on your own!

IMG_4599-001
Another old stamp I've had for years yet have never used... ever. It was so perfect for this page!

IMG_4601-001
I just love the details on these frames!! Already embellished and stitched for you! I added a cute wood button that came in the kit and called it a day!
Come back to see more pages from the LBD Miss Maggie kit! 
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!
