Creating a Monster.

 Here is a double page spread I did of my son making his Valentines box.  If you want to see the finished box, I posted a layout with it on February 12, 2019.

Calm and Collected

 I decided to play along this month with the Mini Kit Monday Challenge Group over on Facebook.  This month's inspiration is a mood board/color combo that is absolutely gorgeous!




As I was gathering papers from my stash I came across a chipboard set that had some of the colors.  It has the navy, dark purple and aqua.  But, instead of the gray it has pink and green.


I throwed it into my pile for my stash kit and kept going through papers to build my kit.  I started adding papers that had the pink and green in addition to the original colors.  I wanted my kit to just be the original colors, but I also wanted to be able to use all the chipboard pieces.  So, I ended up making two not so mini kits that will share the chipboard set.....or one mega kit.

Here is the first kit with the original colors.



The second kit with pink and green instead of gray.



And then some additional die cuts for my kits.

Winter Flurries

 This month on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog they are counterfeiting the December Flurries kit from Not Just For Boys Kit Club.  I absolutely love NJFB!  I didn't purchase the entire Flurries kit but I did purchase some of the ala cart items for that kit.  I purchased the paper, alpha and sequins for the kit.  Originally I was just going to use what I had purchased and then counterfeit the embellishments, but that felt like cheating.  So, I decided to go ahead and pull papers too.


Here is the Flurries kit from NJFB.


Here is what I had purchased.


Here are my counterfeit papers.



Some stickers and rub ons.



Some embellishments.


And some stamps, stencils and mixed media.
