Old Aquaintance...

What a beautiful kit to start the new year out with....it was full of color, great products from some of my favorite manufacturers and lots of potential.....check out the gallery and website to reserve your kit...HERE

Here are the projects I made in no particular order....

This one was some cute pictures I had from one of our many park days. Very simple and just added a few buttons from my stash and did my own hand journaling on the lined paper and freehand drew the little bracket. My son was completely hooked on playing games with the "noculars"


This page came together very quickly just layering on some of the October Afternoon journaling spots and cutting out some of the shapes from the American Crafts paper to embellish them a bit. These are some of my favorite photos of my 2 kids together from the past year....love that they are already in the scrapbook to gaze at!

This page was probably my favorite one of the 4 I made. It was such a fun picture taken at Disneyland where my kids were headed off to play in Chip and Dale's treehouse....soon deemed one of their favorite spots in the entire park. My daughter is leading him to it (she had been there before) I cut the Mickey head shape out of the black polka dot paper in the kit---using a small bowl and tracing it to get the exact size I needed. I loved layering the sassafras flowers and the little bear or could be a mouse on the OA journaling spot. I cut a heart from the fabric in the kit in place of the "O" in love.



Last but not least, the CAUTION boy at work page was fun with the Bella Blvd paper...layering circles and making it dimensional with pop-dots. I loved tucking the robots around on the page. The journaling was printed on vellum to match the look of the robots and cut in strips and adered to the layout. The clip felt "constructiony" -I know this is not a word- to me so I had to use it on this page. The story is pretty self explanatory and one I am so glad I documented to look back on some day.




I really hope you check this kit out and get one for yourself or a friend!! Happy Monday!
