Get Cozy With This Fall Scrapbook Idea | Melissa Minor | November Color Kitz

 Hi crafty friends! Melissa Minor @Cards By Melissa Minor here and today I'm sharing a layout with you using the November Color Kitz. This is my favorite kit Shimmerz has released this year. Every paper is gorgeous! The paint colors match all the papers so well. Fall is my jam! 

When I started my layout I didn't have a clear idea of where I was going with it. So, I started by choosing a few papers that I really liked that coordinated well together. I also chose 2 of the paint colors, some ephemera pieces, and other embellishments I knew I wanted to use. I then fussy cut the images on one of the patterned papers. I had a hard time cutting up the paper because I love it so much! The images in the picture below are the ones I fussy cut! BEAUTIFUL!

Next I started cutting circles using my old Creative Memories circle cutting system. I haven't used it in forever but it was perfect for cutting lot of circles in different sizws. I then began arranging the circles onto my background paper. Oh! I forgot to mention, I used clear gesso on the background paper so that I could paint on it later.

Once I had all my circles arranged I added some foam to the back of my photos and adhered to the page. I pulled out the Shimmerz paints from the kit: Teal The End Of Time & Here I Yam . I added a little paint around each of the circles. It's so pretty and shimmery! I used a couple dots from the kit and added a little tangled thread behind them. I finished my layout by adding an acrylic title from my stash and some sequins from the bonus bundle.
