Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day! If you're looking for a great way to treat yourself I hope you consider trying a subscription to one of the My Creative Scrapbook monthly kits. They select the pattern papers and lots of coordinating supplies and deliver it straight to your front door so all you have to focus on is MAKING! Every month they have several kits to choose from.. their Main Kit, LE - Limited Edition, Creative Kit and Album Kit - so you can choose what's right for you!
This time I'm playing with the Main Kit that includes 12" papers and embellishments from Carta Bella's "Secret Garden" Collection as well as a few others to surprise you. You'll also find die cuts, stickers, a stencil, and lots more! Everything is perfectly coordinated to work together and shipped directly to your door!
The papers have a beautiful romantic feel. I love the gorgeous florals, butterflies and positive sentiments!
The kit includes everything you need to make these cards. The only items I added were the card bases, solid cardstock papers, adhesives, and enamel dots from my stash. You can incorporate you own favorite gems or sequins to add more sparkle to the designs.
The first thing I do when I get a kit is to sort out the elements. I add baby powder to the backs of the stickers to turn them into die cuts then I match the images I think will work well together.
I arrange the images on clear plastic sheets the size of my card front. This gives me a preview of what the finished card will look like before I commit and adhere everything in place. I can also slide pattern paper under the arrangement to see if my choices work well together.
I had lots of fun arranging the papers and elements. A simple trick to layers is to try to break up the patterns with solids, or to stack dark over light.
Frames make great focal points and scenes come together easy when you pair similar elements together.
I invite you to join one of their monthly kit clubs and experience the possibilities that their coordinated kits offer. With plenty of innovative materials and ideas to jump start your imagination, preserving your memories and making cards will be effortless and enjoyable. You can see all of the different kits available this month here at My Creative Scrapbook.
