Clique Kits - Good times

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing my last layout as a DT member of Clique Kits, using the gorgeous September kit with the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Hello Lovely collection. I want to thank the Clique girls for having me this year, it has been amazing!!

For this layout I used a picture that I'll treasure forever. I grew up with my grandparents living next door and I was very close with them, especially with my grandfather. He was like a true best friend to me. I was a difficult baby when it came to naps, unless I was laying on my grandfather's belly and we took a nap together. That was the trick to get me to sleep. I feel lucky that I was able to spend time with him on a daily base, because I already had to say goodbye to him when I was 11 years old. He will always have a special place in my heart!

Besides the goodies from the September kit, I used the Color Cast Designs Alpha set for the title of my page and added a wood veneer from the Embellish Me set.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great weekend!

Clique Kits - Wonderful

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a layout with the September kit Capture from Clique Kits. It's filled with the gorgeous Hello Lovely collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio.

Because of the pretty soft colors and sentiments in this collection, I went for a coast picture taken at Pismo Beach that has pretty soft colors too because of the sunset.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Clique Kits - Summer nights

Hello everyone! Today I have a layout to share with the Clique Kits August mini kit. It came with some of the gorgeous Pink Paislee Citrus Bliss papers, double sided journaling cards and embellishments from Color Cast Designs and Pretty Little Studio.

For my layout I added some pieces of Teresa Collins gold foil sheets, Pinkfresh Studio wood arrows, Snarky Stamps and Little.Miss.Evie. washi tape and enamel dots.

Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Clique Kits - I AM sharing my story

This week it's my turn for Clique into Summer with the I AM Gold kit. My version of I AM is I AM a traveler, as traveling is my biggest passion in life and I travel as much as my schedule allows me to. If you bought the kit, you will have access to my I AM a traveler class, starting today. You can find it under 'the clique' tab on the Clique Kits website. In my class I teach you how to easily document on the go and I'll take you through my process to prepare.

For the project I'm sharing here today, I documented the documenting...ok, that might need some explanation :-) I'm lucky to have a travel buddy who gets my scrapbooking hobby, who understands why I do it and why this is important to me. So you will never hear him complaining when I take picture # 263 of the same object while we're traveling. He also takes pictures himself and sometimes I use his pictures in my albums, to document his point of view or how he is looking at things. When I got his pictures, I started to notice that he secretly takes pictures of me while I'm taking pictures.

Those are not always the most flattering ones of me, but I actually really like these pics. It shows more than anything how I'm preserving memories and I noticed that over the years he took a whole bunch of them. So I decided these pics needed an album of their own.

I made this mini album that I binded with the WRMK Cinch on both the left and right side, so the pages open alternately to the left and right. On this first page you might wonder where I am...you can find me in the middle on the bridge.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Clique Kits - Good times with you

Today I have a layout to share made with the Clique Kits May mini kit. I used the Pretty Little Studio hearts and arrows vellum sheets to create my background and stitched them to the white cardstock. For the other two squares of my background I used watercolors.

With the Pretty Little Studio You & Me papers I layered a cluster and added tags here end there. All stamps are from the stamp sets that I designed for Little.Miss.Evie.

Check out the Clique Kits store for these papers and more awesome goodies!

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Clique Kits - April Pep Rally

Hello and welcome to the Clique Kits April Pep Rally! You should have arrived here from the ever amazing Nicole. If not, you can start your hop over at the Clique Kits blog, to not miss anything!

This month we're celebrating Clique Kits' 1st anniversary and I'm so happy to have been part of all the fabulous-ness right from the start. It has been an amazing year!! Our challenge this month is to create something that shows celebration, in any way you want. 

Right now I'm celebrating Spring. I'm not a Winter person at all and as soon as I see these flowers pop up, I know the good weather is on it's way! For my layout I used, of course, the gorgeous April Happy Everything kit. These fun and bright colors from the Pinkfresh Studio collection make me very happy as well. 

I knew I still had a circle coluzzle laying around somewhere and it was perfect to partially cut the circles of this paper and let the sides come up a little. Afterwards I stitched over the circles.

Here's your hop order for today:

Clique Kits - Dream to be Different

Hello everyone! Today I have another layout for Clique Kits to share with you with the beautiful Pinkfresh Studio Up in the Clouds collection and Webster's Pages Beautiful Chic vellum from the April Happy Everything kit.

I also used one of the exclusive cut files that came with this kit and cut it on white cardstock. To match it up with the color of the cloud on the background paper, I used watercolor on the cut out cloud. This picture is taken while cycling home from work on the first day of real Spring weather. Those are my happy moments!

Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your day!
