My Creative Scrapbook April Creative Kit



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 Creative Kit that includes 12" papers and embellishments from Echo Park's "Craft Room" Collection. You'll also find die cuts, stickers, an alphabet sticker set , a stencil and lots more! Everything is hand selected with care and perfectly coordinated to work together and shipped directly to your door!
This kit speaks to the crafter in me! I love the embellishments that include lots of different creative hobbies like photography, papercrafting (tools like a tape runner, ink blenders, washi etc.), painting (brushes, easel, tubes of paint), and embroidery (thread skeins, hoops).
The colors of this collection are my favorites too.. BRIGHTS with a pop of black. To call your attention to the black in the designs I've added a solid black cardstock matt to each.
The sentiments are punny and totally geared to make the crafter in you happy! I love the rainbow colored letters and the fun accents on each.
Check out the papers that include some basics like the plaid and stripes, but look closer and you'll see prints that include strips of heart washi, pencils, scissors, and crafting tools like scissors. 
Everything you see on my cards is included in the kit EXCEPT for the white cardstock card bases, solid cardstock cover matts, adhesives and gems. Things that you already probably have in your stash right now.
You'll have fun making cards or documenting memories with this kit. No matter what your style too. I love to make scene cards, but collage, mixed media, clean and simple, layered..... whatever your style you make this kit yours!
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.

Showered in Kindness

Hi Friends! Today I'm sending you some sunshine and rainbows to get your day started!
The Stitched Clouds are a new addition at Pretty Pink Posh. I'm always making scene cards so I'll be putting these to good use and OFTEN!
I layered the clouds over a Stacked Edges border background. I love the Stacked Edges because they fit together like puzzle pieces. I have several sets so I can cut lots of strips at one time and always save the extras for other projects.
I stamped a sentiment on a large cloud - it's from an older retired set called Thoughtful Greetings. It's raining stitched hearts from the XOXO border die cut set.
I'm linking up to C.R.A.F.T. Challenge blog where they're looking for designs featuring weather.

Waffle Flower April Release & Giveaway!

The wait is over! The Waffle Flower April release is here! This release celebrates the third anniversary of the Postage Collage Collection with a fresh round of coordinating designs.
I love the Postage Collage Series and the best part is that you can use lots of the products you have together with the new stencil designs. I used the older Postage Collage Blocks with the new Postage Collage Mom Stencil Set.

The striped "air mail" background is made with the older Postage Collage Coloring stencil set. I used sticky notes to mask off one stripe at a time to ink the stripes in different colors.
The images on this stencil set are the sweetest! I love the iconic images.. mom's bag, a cuppa her favorite and of course some pretty flowers!
And now the part you've been waiting for... the giveaway!

I'm linking to Crazy is our Fame Stencils are our Game Challenge!  This time they want you to use Rainbow Colors!
