Noteworthy | Clique Kits International DT

Good morning everyone!! I'm playing with my Happy Blooms kit today. I wanted to document one of my littles major haircut. And yes, for this one was major. I kinda didn't want to do it, but she wanted to so bad and it made her happy and didn't hurt anyone, so I figured why not, let her be her. So it happened lol.

I went to an app in my phone and made a photo strip and printed it out. I matted it on white cardstock and started pulling papers from my kit and playing with it. I love all the papers in this kit and it was so hard to decide, but I figured used a pretty floral print that had pretty much all the colors in it so I can use any of the other papers and it would look good lol. So I cut the floral paper down and grabbed the pink tone on tone plaid and punched a strip of that and slid it under the other paper and stuck it down.

There are so many embellishments in this kit too! So of course I grabbed those and stated going threw them, pulling all the little things I wanted to use. I had a huge pile, so everything didn't make it onto the layout lol. I started with that little pocket and placed it at the end of my pictures, this way I could stick a little hair in from her first haircut, Is that weird?

Then I decided to do a quick cutfile in white and pop it on my layout too. But I wanted more than just the white on white below my photos so I added another paper piece at the bottom of my photo and a light blue piece above it too. This made it really easy from me to slide in all the other little pieces.

I cut one of the frames from the ephemera pack diagonally and slid it behind part of the pocket on the left and then slid the other pieces on the opposite side to the pocket too. After that it was just playing with all the florals I had pulled out and tucking them in here and there till I was happy with it. I put one of the pretty butterflies up on the top too, and added a noteworthy tag to the bottom of the pocket that already had happy thoughts on it. and that finished this layout off for me. Thanks so much for checking out my post and make sure to come back and check out what all the other amazing design team members are up too as well. And always be checking out the Clique kits shop to see all the fun goodies that are there!!

Good morning everyone!! I shared this layout on my instagram the other day and thought I'd pop on and share it here too.

This whole layout started with this little photo of one of my littles and here dog in the backseat of my car. We went on a ride one day and they both just fell asleep lol. So, I knew what photo I was using and then, this fabulous kit, the Some days kit, I had from Clique kits made the rest really easy. That cute little pocket was what set the tune for the whole layout. The colors were great. I went through the kit and pulled different items that went along with the colors in that pocket.

I pulled a stencil from a past kit from Clique kits and grabbed a distressed oxide, another goodie from Clique kits lol. Yeah, I have a lot of goodies from Clique kits. Well, I added that to the background, along with some splatters and then went to layering all the lovely bits and pieces till I got them where I was happy with them.

I loved all the journaling pieces there were in this kit, in the Pinkfresh loveliness! And yes, I did actually journal on them, but not till I finished the layout and took pics. I don’t like my hand writing, I share enough of my hand writing in my memory planning lol.

I made sure to pull out some of those cute floral ephemera pieces and puff stickers and tucked them in here and there. Then finished it off with a few enamel dots. I love those things, I use to hoard them but I’m always trying to find a way to put them in now lol. Well I hope you liked my layout and make sure to head over to the Clique kits website and check out all the beautiful kits and check out the blog at all the amazing inspiration!

This is Halloween mini book | Clique kits International DT

Good morning everyone!! Are y'all excited about halloween and fall?? I have already started decorating and doing some fun things with the kiddos! Usually I just make 12x12 layouts for every month and never in order, and I still plan on making some layouts, but with things going on here I thought, well hey why not make a mini for the month and document everything like I do in December? So I did lol.

I started with an older Maya Roades album I had in my stash. Did a little white dry brush strokes, pulled out my TCW marigold stencil butter from my explore mixed media Halloween kit and started to play with this. After that dried, I grabbed some ink from my stash and grunged up the cover a bit. I pulled my alphas from my A little scary seasonal kit and put my title on the cover along with a few paper strips and a too cute ghost and some balloons.

I moved to the inside cover and decided to make a pocket so that I can stick extra stuff like movie lists for october and a good Halloween playlist for the month. But I still have room do I can stash some more things in there too. On my 1st page I had to use that little witch. She is just soo cute and I also wanted to document that this was Halloween 2021, so I made that pretty big. But I like the way it turned out. I ruffed up the edges and added a cut little spider too.

I mean, really! Isn't she so cute!

Next I moved on to my 1st real page about the 1st halloween movie we watched this month. I love Hocus Pocus and me and the kids like to sit down and watch it. Along with other movies we watch in October. I did a little paper layering on most of my inserts, I had to make sure to get some of that beautiful lace in there too. I made sure I had a journaling spot on my 2nd page so I could write about what we did. Like our 1st bonfire of the year!! The kids loved it! It had finally gotten cool enough outside to have a nice big bonfire and we stayed up late talking and playing. I can't wait for more of these!

I moved on to my last page for this week and added pictures of the bonfire we had. When we 1st started it and then when it was dying down at the end of the night, along with some fun little selfies with my girls that we took playing out there, cuddled up and having some good family time.

I wanted to use some cute 3x4 pocket cards I had as well, so I slipped some of them into pockets. Cut out some of my own tags from the pretty paper and aded embellishments here and there for some more pop. I had a blast with this kit so far and will be adding more to this mini album threw the month and you can keep up with it on my Instagram account and on Clique kits IG account too! ​Make sure to head over to the shop and check out all the new goodies that keep rolling in and get your hands on some great kits and get to craftin!
