November Kits - Camille & Vincent - Layout & Cards (with Sophie)

Hey guys! I'm back today with a layout, using Camille, and a couple of cards using mainly the BPK, Vincent. I hope you likey!

For this layout I wanted to restrict the colour scheme to blue, pink, gold and silver. So I did!

I don't know if you'd realised but this is totally not my style to use a patterned paper as my background piece. But I wanted to use this piece because it features a lovely subtle pattern in soft colours which I love. That is definitely the easiest combination to work with and there are a few in the kit.

For this card I used one of the Amy Tangerine chipboard cards and took two acorns from the ephemera pack (from Camille) and stuck them over the top to create a 3D effect. I really love how it turned out. It ads a little extra interest and dimension to the card. 

I also adhered the card with some double sided mounting tape. It's these simple tips that can really make a simple design that little bit more interesting. 

 As you can see this last card has a completely different feel! I used the Freckled Fawn neon dew drops and Amy Tangerine brads which are both from the Bits and Pieces Kit. Also from the BPK is the 'Hello' stamp. I love the cross stitch design. To fit the word on the card I stamped half at a time.

I really love the contrast of the bright colours against the black! So awesome. 

Thanks for stopping by the blog today! I hope you are inspired to get creating with your kits! I'm super excited to get creating with Clara!

I'll see you next time with a layout featuring her!

See ya,

November TSK - Camille - Thank You Cards - by Charm

Hello Everyone! Well, it's that time of year again! To make THANK YOU cards for all of the kids teachers - this year I have remembered and have actually made time to make some!

I always am hesitant making them, usually thinking that I can't do it, not enough time, or I've forgotten how to make them. This time however, I found it really easy to whip these two up using the GORGEOUS November TSK - Camille!

All I needed was a little bit of playing with layering a couple of patterned papers from the kit, and a tag & a few Amy Tangerine Ephemera pieces and Enamel dots!

I found the easiest way to attach the layers was to staple them altogether. I've then added a border using a journalling pen, and attached to an already made card using double sided tape!

I love the textured Amy Tangerine Ephemera - of course with a touch of gold foil!

I thought the "ruler" was perfect for a teacher card too...

The alphas I used for "Thank You" are from the PLK Riley Kit which is currently 30% off at The Scrappery - don't forget this fabulous SALE which ends on the 31st Dec 2014

I hope I've inspired you to make YOUR Thank You Cards - it really does only take a minute or two - just grab a few bits from your stash and see how you go!

Happy Christmas/End of Year Creating!

November TSK - Camille - Kayla

Hi there guys. It feels like it has been ages since I have been here to share a blog. It's been rather crazy in this household with moving house and then being sick for pretty much the whole of November <<< not much fun!

I was excited however when I got my happy box of goodies from The Scrappery in the mail. I absolutely fell in love with the kits especially Camille.

Here is a look at my first layout created with the kit (with some pieces from BPK and PLK thrown in the mix too). I have another layout finished with a process video that I will be sharing soon.

I absolutely loved the gorgeous Amy Tangerine Stitched papers and embellishments in this kit. I also used one of the gorgeous Maggie Holmes Ribbon tags and glittery bows from the Pretty little kit and the gorgeous wood veneer word (family) and one of the Plus One Brads from the Bits & Pieces kit.

I love adding stitching to ephemera. For such a 'flat' embellishment - it really makes it pop! A little bit of texture here and there is what I love! I also used the Heidi Swapp Velvet Black Colour Shine for my mist dots and as you can see I added my usual vellum to soften the tones of this layout down and add another texture.

I added a spray of the gorgeous mint coloured Heidi Swapp Colour shine that came in a Bits and Pieces kit a few months ago. I love how the colour works with the layout.

Here you can see the gorgeous wood veneer word from the Bits and Pieces kit. I decided to keep it natural for this layout to tie in with the kraft paper I used in one of the layers behind the photo.

And a last little snapshot of my layout. I absolutely *love* the glittery bow.

I hope you enjoyed this little look at my layout and I can't wait to show you more! 

November TSK- Camille - Layout and Process Video (with Sophie)

Hi everyone, long time, no see! (Or so it feels). Today I have a layout that I created using Camille, the November Scrappery Kit. Initially I wasn't a fan of the colour combination that is used in the new Amy Tan collection but I'm really happy with how the layout came together.

I sprayed the wood veneers, the chipboard frame and 'awesome' from the BPK, with some Mister Huey's mist. The colour works really well in bringing the entire layout together.

I created my quote/title using these alphas which are available in the store. 'Always' I cut from one of the ephemera pieces. But if you wanted to used that piece on another project there is also an 'always' in the rub-on pack.

I am in LOVE with the Amy Tan rub-ons that came in the kit. The watercolour circles are my favourite. They're great if you want to add some watercolour to your page but don't want to create I mess.

For more info on how I created this layout check out the process video below. And count how many times I say 'um'! Haha

Thanks for stopping by today.
Happy Scrapping!
