Stitching - gotta love it!

Hi, I'm Debbie, one of the members of the Design Team here to show off some of the September kit. The kit this month was filled with some wonderful embellishments! Chipboard, flowers, ribbon, and these wonderful stitching flourishes by Prima. And do you see the leaves? That's a ribbon thread - you just cut them off as you need them. Love how sewing adds just that something to a page. And then there were these tags that could even be used for your title. Here are two pages I did using several of the goodies in the September kit. That together with these pretty papers made this kit so easy to work with. I think I used every single scrap!

You've got me in stitches!

I was so excited to try the Bazzill In Stitch'z templates! I know they will be awesome for cards, but I wanted to use them on a layout. I LOVE the effect! I will tell you that I did the actual stitching while watching TV over a couple of nights... it does take a little more time, but I think it is SO worth the effort! I'm sure you will love them on any project you try them on! =)

Marks Paper Goodness!

This month's kit is fabulous. I love every bit of it. I was especially drawn to the Marks Paper Company papers. I have worked with them quite a bit but the pop of black Lynn included in the kit looks so great with the English Garden Collection. The black embellishments really make the papers shine...you can't help but love this kit!

Here are a few details!

What do you see....

The Scrap kit this month is full of delish pattern papers that will make you want to scrap!! The Teresa Collins Friendship collection papers are lush with blue and black and the Marks Paper Company English Garden papers are rich with greens and purples... look at this...



Do you ever look at paper and think immediately that you know what photo you want to use with a particular piece? I sure did this month... the Gravel walk/Lavender paper from Marks Paper Company was the piece that I looked at and ran straight to my printer to get the right shot... look at this paper:



and this was the photo that I knew would be the perfect match for this wonderful pattern:



it was almost as if my daughters shirt was made to go with this paper!

Isn't that Petaloo flower wonderful....it's in the Scrap Kit....
and that Thickers alphabet....it's in the Scrap Kit....
and that Jillibean Soup journaling sprout.....it's in the Scrap Kit....

so guess what.... you need the Scrap kit!!!

Which paper speaks to you when you look at the kit? What photo do you see when you look at these patterns??? I hope you'll share in the gallery your creations made with this wonderful kit!

Happy crafting......Lynda

Elements within

When you get your kit each month what is the first thing you do
with it?
Do you pull it all out and gawk over it? Or maybe you slowly take each piece out
and check it out?
However you look this month's kit is pure awesomeness at its finest!

This month's kit completely WOWed me!
Seriously..
All those elements really drew me in and on
this particular layout, I used every single one of them
that Lynn offered!
I mean how could you not?
Just take a look at this yummy kit and see what I mean....



So no matter how you open your kit, you are going to have a blast
creating pages that are beautiful!
The colors flow so beautifully together and really draw your eye inward!

When you get your kit, you'll see what I mean and you too can drool over
the yummies at each and every turn!
