Love Is In The Air

It's reveal time over at My Creative Scrapbook and I get to finally share the layouts I created with the February kits. Today I'm sharing my creations with the Main kit which feature the sweet Paper Hearts collection by Crate Paper, just perfect for lovey dovey projects to celebrate Valentine's Day.

Here's my first project with the kit,


If you have young kids, then you know how hard it is to get both kids on the shot to pose, so this is what I get. It' life, and love it! This photo totally reflects my children's personalities at the moment, Emily is a ham and Dylan is funny beyond belief. LOL!



The quote is something I found on Pinterest and I edited it slightly.


The next page came together incredibly fast, for me anyway, because this kit was so easy to work with. Just some stamping, some punch work, and a little bit of detailed cutting and it was all done! Sometimes the designs in the paper call for simple!


Here's a closer view,



For my third page, I got a little bit artsy as I played with modeling paste with this masculine page.



My final project with this kit is an altered project. I altered this little paint can from Michael's with heaps of embellishments from the kit!


Another quick and easy project thanks to all the stickers and punch-outs included in the kit. After altering, I filled it up with Dove milk chocolate hearts and it's now ready to be gifted!




Thanks so much for stopping by. I'll be back tomorrow to share my creations with the Limited Kit. For now, be sure to check out MCS DT gallery for more beautiful inspiration!

Glitz CHA Projects

Hello again! I am so excited because for the first time, I was invited to send in my layouts to CHA! Although I was not able to attend, the next best thing was playing with the luscious new collections from Glitz and today I get to share them with you!

We were asked to create two layouts with each collection, one 12x12 and one 8x8. First up, the beautiful French Kiss. I really love the neutral colors and vintage imagery in this collection.







Next up, is Pretty In Pink. This collection is so sweet and easy to work with. I love that the embellishments range from sweet and bright to grungy and vintage.







And finally, the Happy Travels collection is just darling! There's muted creams and blues but also rich brown and sienna tones, LOVE it! 







So what do you think about the new collections? If you're anything like me, I know you can't wait to play with these papers and embellishmens! Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek today, have a wonderful week!!!
