The Perfect Hello

Another old picture I grabbed from the stack.  This layout uses one of my Scraptastic Kits.

All of my favorite elements are on this one.....

 Flair.....

 Hand Stitching and enamel dots.....

 Glossy Accents on my stickers....

On a roll

So, last weekend, I finally took the time to grab some photos of the rest of the layouts I'd finished since January.   Expect lots of sharing.

 This is using a Cocoa Daisy kit from 2013.  Have I mentioned I have a scary stash of kits?  Cocoa Daisy, Citrus Twist, Studio Calico and now Scraptastic.  I no longer sub to Studio Calico or Citrus Twist.  CD and Scraptastic seem to cover all my bases and offer me product I actually use.  I struggle to use SC's kits.

 The exclusive papers in this kit were perfect.  Cloud stamp paired with Glossy Accents = perfect accent.  Flair is from the A {Flair} for buttons shop.

Another layout using that Authentique (or Carta Bella paper).  Explore Oceanside.

 This is based off a sketch on my Pinterest boards.  The explore word is from Freckled Fawn maybe?  (I really shouldn't take things out of packaging....)  I used some Tim Holtz Distress Ink to stain the veneer and then added Glossy Accents over that to create a varnished wood look.

The chevron is stitched.  I used the Chevron Mist Template from Studio Calico to punch my holes and then stitched.  I just went with one big stitch instead of little ones.

One more train layout

Same Simple Stories paper.  It stared out as the first page of a 2 page layout (see previous post) and then each page took on a life of its own and they became two separate layouts that will go in the scrapbook together since they compliment one another.

 I used half a bottle of glossy accents on this one.

 And some fussy cutting/pop dots to bring this to life.
