Good Vibes using the August Color Kitz Bundle

Hey all!  Nicole here with my second layout using the fabulous August Color Kitz Bundle.  I am documenting some fun we had in Japan while playing the claw machines.

The first thing I did for this layout was to make the background.  I actually started with the wavy paper from the kit and cut 5" strips of waves.  I then lined them up on the left side of the paper and distressed them.  Then I used 4 of the 5 paints that we got in the kit to make bursting rays on the right side of the page.

Next I added my photos with some mats made with paper from the kit.  I also distressed these and popped them up on foam.

 Lastly I added embellies from the kit, including: die cuts, stickers and a dotz.  I finished of with some journaling and then made some doodle hearts around my clusters.

Thanks so much for coming to read all about my layout!  I hope it gets you in a crafty mood.  If you are interested in grabbing the Color Kitz Bundle please use my name Nicole in the shopping cart notes for a free gift with your order.  I also have a process video that you can watch here: https://youtu.be/rDEE3C1Grqc

My Sweet Boy Using the July Color Kitz

Hey all!  Nicole here with another layout using the July Color Kitz!  Today I'm documenting my sweet dog, Rocky.  This was our last day with Rocky and it brings up such emotion, so I thought it would be nice to document with some bright cheerful colors.
 

 The first thing I did for this layout was to make the background.  I used all the shimmerz and sprays to make this from the kit.

Next I paper pieced from the papers that came with the kit, trying to match the colors with the paints.

Finally I used elements from the kits to embellish!  I also added some buttons and sequins from my stash.  I added my title using a stamp and finished with journaling.

Hooray! Scrapbook Layout Using the May Color Kitz Bundle

Hey all! Nicole here with my second layout of the month using the May Color Kitz Bundle!  I am documenting a cute little s'more that I made with crochet, and when I say cute I mean so so cute!  I started this layout by making the background.  I used all the paints to make the squares making sure to mix two together for each one.

I then cut out different sized squares from the patterned papers that came with the kit.  I distressed them as well as the pic and put them on the background with foam tape.

I then used lots and lots of stickers from the sticker sheet in the kit.  I added them to the like colored blocks of paint with glue or foam tape!

 

I used a couple of pieces of the die cuts included in the kit, like the banner and the journaling card!

I finished my layout with some journaling and little heart doodles.

Waiting For Dad Scrapbook Layout

Hey all! Nicole here with another fun layout using the Color Kitz Bundle.  I am documenting my black lab peeking out the curtains waiting for her dad to come home.  She is sooooo cute!

 

To start this layout I used the Mustard Seed Vibez to make a swatch card (used as a layering piece) and the background of this layout.  I used Foundations paper to make both the card and the background.

 

 I layered up the swatch card, the white and orange giant grid patterned paper, the blue floral paper, and my photo to make a statement for the middle of my layout.  I distressed all of them and popped them up on foam tape.

 

 Next I fussy cut out the black and white flowers and created little groups of them cascading down my layout.  I then used ephemera and stickers from the kit to add to those little clusters.

 

 I added a title which I die cut from some black card stock.  To finish off this layout I added some black sequins and my journaling.

 

Thanks for popping in and reading about my layout.  I hope it gives you some ideas of how to use the kit.  You can still grab the kit from the website, just remember to use my name Nicole in the shopping cart notes to get a little freebie with your purchase.

Every Moment Matters Using the April Color Kitz Bundle

I made this background during my unboxing video earlier this month.  You can watch that here: Unboxing the April Color Kitz Bundle

After I made the background, I cut some triangles out of 4 of the patterned papers to make this burst effect along with the paint.  I also matted my photo on the orange patterned paper from the kit.

Hangin Out Scrapbook Layout Using the March Color Kitz

 Hey all, Nicole here with a page I created with the March Color Kitz Bundle.  I am documenting my youngest and her friend.  I'm also using a sketch from the 30 Days of Sketches Facebook Group.  

The first thing that I did for this layout is find the patterned paper I wanted to use for the triangles.  I decided to use this stripy paper from the kit.  I then cut them into two triangles.  I laid them down on the page to see where I wanted them to go and then I added spray from the kit.

 When the paint was dry I then added my triangles back to the page with double sided sticky tape.  I added my photo down here to the lower right triangle, making sure to lay it down a bit wonky!  I then decided to add a cluster of dotz and wood veneer to each of these triangles.

 Lastly I added this little interest over to the lower left of the page.  I used a sticker that kinda looks like a postage stamp and then added some of the patterned paper on top.  I then added my journaling and my title.

XOXO Scrapbooking Layout using the February Color Kitz Bundle

Hey all, Nicole here with my newest layout using the February Color Kitz Bundle!  I made the background in my unboxing video here: https://youtu.be/GYiF6c1EVO0

After my background was made with the paints I then matted the foundations paper onto the pink polka dot paper from the kit.
 

I then took the paper with the heart cherries and the heart suckers and fussy cut those out.  I then glued them down to my layout.

I embellished with little bits from the die cuts and then with the word sticker sheet.  I also used one of the dotz in the upper-right cluster.
