You Look Fabulous - Clique Kits September kit

Hello blogging friends!

I am back today with more inspiration from the September Clique Kit Capture. Aren't you loving this gorgeous kit? What's not to love with the Cocoa Vanilla Studios Hello Lovely, Seven Paper, and Dear Lizzy papers. I am still working on scrapping my daughter's wedding photos.... and that first anniversary is creeping up on me, yikes! I wanted a more masculine feel to this layout of my son-in-law and his mother preparing for his wedding, so I pulled the brown papers and the black corrugated cardboard from the kit. To soften things up a bit, I added a little vellum over the background. This helps to frame my main photo as well.

 

Banners under the cardboard add just enough color. I even cut up a journal card for my banner. See there are lots of ways to use those journal cards. You can also see the Hello Lovely ephemera, stickers, and the Pretty Little Studio sticker words (the 'love') here...

 

The custom flair included in the kit is always one of my favorite parts of the kit. I added my own twine bow for a little elegance.

 

I placed more ephemera and some sequins on top of the vellum to finish off my page.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Sisters Share a Special Bond - Clique Kits

Hello blogging friends!

I am kicking off the inspiration with the September Clique Kit "Capture". The awesome September kit features the gorgeous Cocoa Vanilla Studios Hello Lovely collection plus exclusives like the flair and digital cut files you can't find anywhere else. Since Cocoa Vanilla Studios is an Australian scrapbook company, you will have a hard time finding these papers state side. How lucky that the Clique girls arranged for them to be part of the September kit!

Lately I have been switching out my Silhouette blade for a sketch pen. My favorite sketch pens are the metallic ones; gold and silver especially. So for my Art Studio post this nerd used her Silhouette Cameo and one of Lacey's fabulous cut files. The result is stunning. Well, I think it is stunning anyway...

 

It's hard to photograph just how beautiful it is unless the light catches the ink just so ....

 

I did add some ink splatters in there too :)  Because this is Art Studio...

 

The September kit has gorgeous sequins, beautiful ephemera die cuts, and of course that exclusive flair...

 

I created my title with the Evalicious Alpha Puffy Stickers included in the kit. One of the things I love about these alphas is that I have lots of letters. Enough "S"s for this title...

 

Thanks for stopping by today. Stay tuned for more inspiration using the September Clique Kit.
