More MCS October Projects and a Giveaway!

Hello friends! I'm back to share with you my projects with the October LE kit from My Creative Scrapbook. I was so happy to find brand new Webster's Pages (my fave!) goodies in this month's kit. The featured paper collection is All About Me, looooove this range so much!!!

Here's a photo of the kit, no idea how Pam was able to fit so many gorgeous stuff in one package...

Beautiful Time. For this LO, I edited the photo to coordinate with the soft brown/grey hues in the papers. I also used a fabric ticket along with the butterfly stick pin to embellish.

Isn't that clock awesome? It's a brand new Prima vintage mirror included in the kit. I did lots of machine stitching as usual and added detail with Liquid Pearls in powder blue.

The World Is Your Playground. I just adore this photo of Dylan at the lake and thought it was just perfect for this collection.

Webster's Pages is the best for detailed cutting so I cut lots of images from the papers and popped them
 up on dimensionals.

The new Webster's bling is so fun and easy to use! I cut mine apart to get more mileage out of it.

You Love The Camera. This next page has a pretty simple design with some layering. I was happy to see it featured as one of the layouts of the week at Inspire Me .

We received so many embellishments with this kit, two bloomers trims, stick pins, feather flowers, and so much more!!!!

Holding Hands. For my last page, I used the die cut paper included in the kit and attached a paper border using the tutorial I shared earlier here.

The new Prima Shabby Chic resin pieces are just beautiful and add so much to a page.

Also, don't forget to check out MCS DT gallery then come back here and leave a comment letting me know how many projects we have this month for a chance to win a Prima Flowers prize pack, how fun is that! Good luck everyone!

October Reveal At My Creative Scrapbook

Hello again! Today is reveal day at My Creative Scrapbook. I had the pleasure to work with this month's Main and Limited Edition kits. Today I'll share with you my work with the Main Kit. This kit has cuteness written all over it and it's jammed packed with fun papers and embellishments in the most beautiful autumn colors. The featured paper collection is Farmhouse by Crate Paper, take a look... and read on for a FUN GIVEAWAY!

Here are the projects I created with this kit. My first layout is titled Home Grown.

Though an older photo of Dylan, I just had to scrap it! The colors in the paper collection are the same ones as the ones on his sweater, I love when that happens!

For my next layout, Leaf Collector, I created my own burlap banner inspired by the cute wooden clothes pins included in the kit.

The chicken wire chipboard piece was a great addition to this kit. I embossed it to give it some texture.

The colors were perfect for a pumpkin picking LO so I totally went for the obvious, LOL! This one is titled Today Is Worth Remembering.

Did I mention I love this kit? LOL! I think my favorite part was the stacked tea cups, so sweet!

Lastly, I created the following recipe book by binding together some recipe cards and dividers with chipboard panels I cut using my Fiskars trimmer.

I really enjoyed creating with this kit and I know you will too!

And now for a fun Reveal Day Giveaway! Visit My Creative Scrapbook's DT Gallery and check out all the beautiful creations with the October kits; then come back here and leave a comment letting me know how many projects we have for this month.

September Challenge At MCS

Hi everyone! It's my first time hosting a challenge over at My Creative Scrapbook and I'm so excited!!! I sure hope you have time to play along!

You probably have noticed that I love circles. I think they're a great way to create a focal point around your photo, especially when the rest of your layout may seem a bit busy.

So, your challenge this month is to create a new layout that incorporates circles in any way. The sky is the limit here, you can cut your background paper, or even your photos in the shape of a circle. You may try adding a stitched circle or just cut some pattern paper to add to your design. I'm sure you will wow us all with your creativity.

And if you need an incentive, take a look at the amazing prize package Pam has in store for the winner; Teresa Collins papers with Chipboard, Buttons, lots of flowers and the new Jenni Bowlin Paint dauber, Now that is fun!!!

This challenge runs till October 15th. You don't have to be a kit subscriber to play along but you do have to be a member. Sign up here and join the fun!
