Hip Kit Club CT/ You spin me right round

Hello everyone, hope your weeks been going good. Now mine is going great since I've gotten my February Hip Kits!!!! There fan-freaking-tastic!!

I grabber this picture of my youngest son, from back when he was only 2, oh so long ago! He was out on the back deck with me playing on his sit and spin. It wasn't an amazing picture op or anything special like a bday party or anything but he was just so sweet sitting there with his shaggy hair and cute little laugh. So I snapped more pics then were needed and chose these two to scrap for this layout. I used Ashley Hortons sketch for this layout that she put up on theHip Kit facebook group for this weeks challenge. Her sketch was so great, I can see me using it over and over.


I stick more in the blue tones for this layout, pulling from the Pink Paislee C'est La Vie papers in the main kit with a little pop of bright yellow from the same collection. I did a bit of embellishing from the Pink Paislee C'est La Vie ephemera pack and the pretty 01 paper with all the pretty cut apart pieces. I loved the little bit of yellow around the photo but wanted a bit more, so I grabbed my Shimelle Starshine chipboard stickers from the embellishment kit 


I grabbed some embroidery floss from my stash, a variegated black to light grey and stitched my circles onto my page and to finish the whole thing off, I grabbed my Prima water color pencils from Octobers color kit  and splattered it across the page. 
I hope you enjoyed this layout and I hope you get the chance to grab this months kit and make sure to check out next months kit too!! So beautiful and oh yeah there are some great exclusives in the March kit!! Make sure to check them out!

Hip kit CT layout/ Oh, snow happy

Goof morning everyone! It is still cold here and we've actually had a really nice snow once, it didnt last long, about a day, but we had so much fun while it was here!! It actually made me think of my pictures from last year. So I went and dug them out and grabbed this one of my 2 daughters. They were having so much fun being pulled on a sled for the 1st time and the colors we perfect!! lol 


This layout came together in about 35 min. My youngest was napping, I had all the house work done, so I figured I would jump in to my scrappy room and see what I could do. I loved the Basic Grey, B-Side paper with those pretty light pink dots, I usually use a plain white background but I wanted to step out of my comfort zone a bit and I like the way it turned out. The light dots made it perfect, not to much for me lol. Then I grabbed some of the scraps I had left over from some of my other layouts and started layering. Oh and I just loved that calendar paper by Crate Paper!! It was perfect for putting the date and it looked cute!


After that I added a few strips from Crate paper  to the top and bottom and outlined everything with my zig pen. After that it was adding the title, American Crafts Crush thickers and one of the great exclusive vellum words. I added little hearts from the great Crate Paper 12x12 chipboard sticker sheet that we got in the main kit and the pretty little exclusive acrylic circles from the Embellishment kit.
We had so much fun last winter and this one was great too!! Not I have some more great memories to scrap! And I love how Januaries kits can work so many ways!!
Well thanks for stopping by today and I hope your inspired to go play with your scrappy stuff today too!! And make sure to head over to the Hip Kit site and check out the New February kits!! They are AMAZING!!! Packed full for tons of greatness from this past CHA!! You wont want to miss it!! And make sure you head over to the Hip Kit blog and check out everything that all the great ladies over there are creating!!

Hip Kit Club CT/ In Grandmas arms

Good morning everyone!! Im here to share a layout that I created with Hip Kit clubs January kits. 
I used mostly Crate paper, Hello,Love and My Minds Eye, My Story. These two collections went so well together and I love it! Ashley Horton also posted this great color challenge over on the Hip Kit Facebook page and I used the colors from it to come up with this layout.


I used the cut file that Ashley Horton created for hip kit this month and actually manipulated it in my silhouette software to where I had two connected together, one a bit smaller then the other. I had already picked my photo so this whole thing came together so easily. 


I layered some of the pretty crate paper behind my cut files and some of the Basic grey behind my photo and another cut file then stated to layer pieces from the crate paper hello love collection and the My minds eye my story collection with bits of gold thread bunches here and there and to finish it off I added some Heidi Swapp Gold Lame and Seafoam color shine.

This layout was a bit harder for me to make, only for the fact that my parents recently moved and I'm use to having them close and so are my kids. I know Im a grown woman, but I miss having my parents so close that I can go see them every day and now I cant and I miss them sooo much, and my kids hate that there gone. Its a big transition needless to say! 
But this picture was taken the night before they moved, well before that finished packing everything. We stayed the last two nights before they left and this night, my youngest son crawled up in his grandmas lap and fell asleep. My mom didn't want to move, she was about ready to sleep in this chair so that she wouldn't lose any of this precious time with him. He doesn't know I have this picture, but Im sure in the future he'll be happy that I do. 

Well I hope you enjoyed this layout and my rambling. If you havent already, you need to head over to the Hip kits site and grab Januarys kit and sign up so you can get February kit too!! Its SOOOOOO amazing!! Packed full of all kinds of new releases from this past release, its great and you wont want to miss out I promise!!

Hip Kit club CT/ Love you Rose

Good morning everyone. I've been MIA for a weeks or so and I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I have been sick! And it has not been fun. But I'm back and I have a pretty layout that I created with this months January Hip Kits!!

My daughter is over 3 now and I hadn't scrapped this photo and when I saw the papers and embellishments in this kit, I knew I had found the right stuff to scrap it with! I used Crate paper, Hello,love My valentine paper for the background, I loved it, but I decided to tone down the background a bit with a piece of American crafts vellum from the Carsdstock kit and a little white wash on the top and faded it out towards the middle to made it look omber under the vellum. I just added a little bit of white paint to water to make it fade out just a little.


Next I grabber this beautiful cut file that the lovely Kim Watson made for the Hip Kit club this month. 


I used a lot of the pretty Crate paper Hello, love collection to embellish this layout. Everything was so pretty! And I loved all the gold!!


I added a a few touches from the My Minds Eye, My story brads sheet, with little messy clumps of gold thread here and there and those lovely Hip Kit exclusive acrylic confetti pieces from the Embellishment kit! 
I wanted this layout to be simple, but pretty, this was a special day and I wanted it to be shown that way as well. I love that my husband managed to get this sweet shot of me and her.

Well I hope you enjoyed my layout and I hope you share what you make with your kits too! and make sure, if you haven't already, head over to the Hip kit Club website and grab your January kit before there all gone and make sure you get next months kit too, Its GORGEOUS!! And smack full of new releases from the recent CHA!!

Hip Kit CT/ Happy together

Hello everyone!! I'm sorry my post didn't post this morning, I didnt even notice till a few minutes ago. I got a little error code when I tried to get into my old post,lol, oh well. 
I do have a little layout to share with you thought that I made using Hip Kit clubs January kits!! I squealed when these showed up on my door step! They are jam packed with so many pretty things!!

This was quite a quick layout.  I grabbed a few photos of my hubby with our girls and matted them on some white cardstock from the cardstock kit and then I matted those onto the fountain blue cardstock. After that I grabbed my main kit and went threw the papers and grabbed this pretty polka doted one by Crater paper, from there Hello love line. I used both sides of that paper, the other side it a pretty light pink with white xoxo on it, love it!! 


I grabbed the American crafts washi, ripped it the way I wanted it and put it across my layout. I added a strip of the fountain cardstock and the pretty polka doted paper across the top and bottom and then started embellishing. And oh man, there are so many pretty embellishments in these kits!! 

Im loving the pretty blue acrylic circles that came in the kit and are exclusive to hip kit! there are beautiful gold rub ons, and other rum obs from My mind eye. And so many products from the Crate paper, Hello love collection!!


I hope you enjoyed this layout and I hope you run by the Hip kit club blog and check out what all the lovely ladies over there are doing with the kits as well!!

Hip Kit club CT/ Hello 30

Good morning everyone!! I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Years!! We have brought in the new years in our house by being sick! What a fun way to bring in the new years, but its ok, everyone seems to be getting better, major plus.

Well I'm sharing a layout today that I made with my December Hip kits. These kits have been amazing and next months are going to be fantastic too!! If you haven't checked it out yet you really need too!! 
Anyways, back to the layout I made, lol. I turned 30 this past September and I loved this confetti, gold glitter, acetate page that came in this kit, it made me think of a party. 


I used these amazing American Crafts DIYshop thickers for the beginning of my title. I have to say I really love these thickers! They have a fabric/ canvas feel to them and man do these babies take color so well! I went and ordered me a few more packages so I can keep playing with them. They take color so well with so many different mediums!


Ok so I turned 30 and wasn't quite sure how I felt about that, so I wanted to have a bit of fun with this layout and make myself feel a little better lol. But really, I'm ok with being 30 lol, but I did have fun with this layout and I was so happy to get into my Embellishment kit and grab so many of these pretty cardstock pieces from the Maggie Holmes ephemera pack. And that chipboard zebra from the main kit, I was so happy to used that cute little thing!!


I added a TON of layers for this layout. I enjoyed doing this and slipped little pieces of that pretty American Crafts peacock glitter tape in between some of them, along with some of the pretty tabs and tags from the ephemera pack. And I added little thread bunches here and there. After adding a few layers to the bottom along with my cute little friend there, I finished off my layout with some Heidi Swapp, Gold Lame color shine! 


I really hope you enjoyed my layout and I'm hoping now that I'm getting better and the holidays are over, that I'll get back to my normal posts on Tuesdays and Thursdays at least. Sorry for the missing posts during the holidays. 
Head over to the Hip Kit Club blog and check out what all those great ladies have created and shared and join in on the Hip Kit club FB group, there are great weekly challenges and tons of great company and sharing of what everyone is making with there kits too!
