Christmas Countdown 2013

Hi everyone!!

I'm soooo excited to be making my very first December Daily this year!

There are tons of cute kits out this year but I was asked to make some custom frame embellishments for a Christmas Countdown kit that was put together by Carrie Elias. She made lots of custom files that are adorable and I love all the colors shes used for the kit. 

Here is the kit!

Here are some detail shots!

Go check out her video here and a full list of supplies here. There aren't many left so snatch them up when you can! Not to mention they are about half the price of most kits and that includes shipping. Once you purchase your kit you will also receive the files to make more pages if you need them! 

Happy Scrapping everyone! 

OOTD Layout

Hi everyone!
Today I have a layout to share using the Scraptastic kit, Never Tear Us Apart and add-on.
These kits are full of warm colors that are perfect for scrapbooking those fall photos!
Here's my page :)

I knew I wanted to cut up that chevron paper and I love how it looks like it's going into the photo!

I backed my white background paper onto some brown card stock from the kit for a little more color. I added some brown/gold mist to the background, it's a Maya Road mist, not sure if they are available anymore but it's the first time I've used it and I LOVE the gold shimmer after it dries!

I love getting Thickers in kits, you can never have to many!! Oh and OOTD stands for Outfit Of The Day :)

I cut out a camera from one of the patterned papers, added the adorable wood veneer piece, some enamel dots and a butterfly sticker from my stash. Since I offset the background paper I went ahead and added the arrow paperclip to the top right above the cute flair badge!

I love cut apart sheets, I went ahead and cut out a couple of tags, added the today sticker, and enamel dot and another butterfly sticker from my stash. 

Tag me on Instagram @kraftybuns so I can see your fall layouts!

Have a great day!!

Family

Hi everyone! I recently shared a challenge over on the Scraptastic blog and wanted to share it here!

The October kit is full of warm fall colors and adorable embellishments, they also have a Halloween kit and add-on for those that are interested :)

Here's the layout!

So my challenge was to use a large photo! 

I normally like to scrap smaller pictures, but a large one is fun to work with once in a while. 

And the closeups!

Head over to the challenge post and let's see what you make with a large photo. Link your project and be entered to win a $20 certificate to the Scraptastic store!

You have until Nov. 6th! 

Can't wait to see what you make!!

Hiii!

Sharing another layout from the fabulous September Scraptastic Club kit, Everybody Talks and add-on. 

Loving all the pinks in this kit!!

Here's the page!

That floral paper is pretty darn close to my phone cover so of course I had to use this picture! I layered three patterned papers to the left side of the page and totally love how they look together!!

I added some lace over a piece of pink paper that came in the kit. Added some doilies behind an ephemera pack die-cut, used some chipboard hearts from my own stash, some enamel dots from the kit, cut a little camera from one of the papers and added a die-cut bow on top! Love these large letter stickers that came in the kit :)

Added some random stitching to the page and a pre-made layered embellishment from the kit!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Don't forget to check out what the other ladies are making with their kits over on the Scraptastic Blog!

1950's Style

Back again with a double spread page and two videos!

Again, I already shared this on the Scraptastic Club blog, but I wanted to share it here too!

For these pages I used the Everybody Talks kit and add-on. 

Adorable kit!!!!

Here is the 12x12 page!

LOVE the pink and black!!!!!

Take a closer look

I wanted to add the photo of the vintage camera I used to take the main picture. I made a short post about this here. 

These fabric frames are awesome and that LOVE frame from the ephemera pack is sooooo cute!

I love making little clusters like these :)

Here is the video for the 12x12 page!

And onto the divide side. 

This doily stamp is so cute! I went ahead and gave this side of the page a mini title since these photos were taken with a different camera. Grabbed a little pink vellum envelope from my stash and add the cute glitter button that came in the kit. 

I love the look of little shaker cards. 

These plastic frames are actually real slide frames. My mom has been going through some of my late grandpas slides and was getting rid of the ones she didn't want. I went ahead and grabbed them to use as embellishments. There are a lot of slide frame products out there but I thought it would be fun to add real ones!

And now onto the video!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great day!

Hi! Today I'm sharing another Scraptastic Club layout using the September Everybody Talks kits!

This one was inspired by the September sketch they have posted in the forum, LOVE it!!

Take a look at the sketch!

I wanted to make a page just using one photo but still wanted to use the sketch. I didn't follow it exactly but it was the definitely the inspiration for this layout :)

The ephemera pack is awesome! So many pieces to use!

Loving the polaroid diecut frames that came in the kit

And here is the process video :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Don't forget the check out what the other designers are making with their kits!!

This Life Noted

Hi everyone!!!

Today I am sharing my This Life Noted pages made using the This Life Noted September kit from Scrapstastic Club!

You may have seen this post already on their blog but I thought I would share it here as well :)

If you've been following me then you know that I don't really do Project Life however, I do a form of it. Whether it's a whole month, one week or even one day/event and I don't want to scrap a 12x12 layout with; I will use the Becky Higgins page protectors as a way to document my story. 

Here is what I made using the kit!

My Birthday night! 

I don't have a ton of photos from this night but the filler cards are a great way to help with that problem!!

I went ahead and made a simple title card for this spread using the alpha stickers that came in the kit and the adorable wood veneer stars!

A lot of these cards are so cute on their own! Just added a little sequin from the kit!

I wanted to add a spot for some journaling so I grabbed a pocket and tag from my stash, used a stamped phrase from the We Are Family stamp set, added the wood veneer hearts and layered the pocket on two of the This Life Noted cards.

Aren't these camera adorable too!? I used the stamp set that came with the kit to add some "splatters".

And that's it! Pretty simple since the cards already do the work for you!! I still have a ton left plus embellishments! 

Thanks so much for stopping by!!!
