Today's Stories layout | Clique Kits DT

Good morning everyone! I took a break for a bit and didnt make any blog posts, but I thought I would go ahead and start up agian. Why now? I have no idea, especilly since we have been having such bad weather and there is more to come tonight abd I am not looking foeward to it at all. But my scrapping makes me happy and helps keep me distracted from the weather a bit. But I'm here today to share a layout I made with the Limited Edition Level Up kit. I really like this kit and I already have another layout to share, but that will come later. I like this kit so much becuase you can make complelty different looking layouts with the one kit. This layout, I used mostley the papers in the kit from Asuko Studios.

I liked thecolors and I wanted to go outside the gamer papers. I started this layout with my picuter and then pulled on eofthe papers, the one that looks like it has sun rays on it. I cut it in half and adheared it to the top of my page. I wanted more to it though. I thought it looked to plain, so I pulled a few other papers and cut some strips form a few differnt papers.

I have this thing, I like to add some texture I guess you can say, really I like to distress the edges of my papers. So, of course I did that to this layout too.

I knew I wanted my photo of my son on the lower left side of my layout, becuase of the way he's looking in the picture. So I decided to start adding some papers behind the photo and pop them up on some adhesive foam. I placed that down and started pulling all kinds of embellishments out from the kit. But first I had to add my black splatters on my layout.

Once I took a little snack break while my splatters were drying, I decided it was time to go a head and start adding my embellishments. In the kit there is a pack of Pinkfresh studio cardstock stickers and puffy stickers and thats where my embellishments came from. I started tucking lables and little pennents and puffy stickers here and there along the strips of paper I had placed down. I popped a puffy sticker up at the top of my photo. Today's Stories, I placed that for my title.

I grabbed my type writer and tryped up my journaling, cut it into strips and added ti to my layout and called this one done. I hope you liked this layout. Have you seen all the new goodies in the Cliqu kits shop?? I mean if you havent, you need to go check out the shop, so much goodness in there right now! The kit I used for this layout is there, along with an add on to go with it.

Lovely Layout | Clique Kits DT

Good morning everyone, how was your weekend? Well it's been rainy here so, I got a little more time to scrapbook. I had a little that needed a little dental work, but we ended up having fun. I pulled my Limited Edition Heritage Poland & Ukraine Wonderful Wycinanki kit out and thought it would work great. I printed my photos, then decided to cut them out of the strip I started with and split them up a bit. I went through the kit and started pulling embellishment and of course some of the beautiful rub ons that came in the kit.

I knew I didn't want a bunch of paper on this layout. I decided that I wanted to play with some mixed media. I pulled some distressed oxides that I had gotten from the shop and started squishing them on a piece of plastic and adding it to my background. Once I had that done, I started to play with my pictures and where I wanted them. I decided the way I wanted to seperate them and then started to play with the things I had already pulled form the kit.

I started sliding pieces that I had pulled from the kit under my photos and then decided that I wanted more color. I really wanted to add a pop of that bright yellow in. So I grabbed a few pieces of paper and cut some strips and squares and started tucking them behind my photos. I added a few to the two pictures I decided to keep together and then decided to mat the other one as well. I just played with it as I went along making the layout.

Once I had the papers where I wanted, I played a little more with the things I had already pulled from the kit. I cut some of the rub-ons in half, I wanted to make them go a bit further. I added in more of the ephemera and the sticker I chose for my title. I just chose the one work, Lovely, because she was just a lovely little goof this day. It worked perfectly lol. She had no teeth problems at all, she was in for a cleaning, but had a really loose tooth and asked the dentist to pulled it so he did lol. I wanted a little more in there so I ran some vellum through my sizzix, got some leafs cut out and added them. Added in my journaling about the day and called this layout good. I hope you liked this layout and make sure to head over to the shop and check out all the beautiful kits that are there for the picking!
