Hey y’all! Ashley here, with a super cheery and bright layout for you using the #July2016 #Hipkits!
I started with a white background and knew right away that I wanted to use that Simple stories sunburst paper as my title “Hello Sunshine.” I began layering my papers behind my photo and and offsetting them just to give a little interest. I used a few of #thehappylife #HKCesclusive papers to add in pops of pink.
I also used some of the #HKCexclusive #ephemera and couple of the wood veneer pieces from Pink Paislee Paige Taylor Evans #FancyFree.
I just love how fun and happy this layout is! I hope you all enjoy it.
I hope you all are having a great Monday so far! This week, I am using the July 2016 kits and I am focusing on using up some of those beautiful Project Life cards that Kim Watson designed, which came in our Project Life Kit.
I began with a design with 9 vertical 3×4 cards. I’m loving this design and plus, I need to fill the back of my previous design. I am actually working on Week 3 continued as I had several photos to complete for this particular week.
I used several of the HKC Exclusive Cards and I also cut up some of the patterned paper that came in our Main Kit.
I embellished using probably every embellishment from the Main Kit, Embellishment Add-On Kit, and the Project Life Kit. That might be a bit of an exaggeration but I’m almost certain there are only a few items that I did not open for both my layout and my project life spread. I just love everything in these kits!
For my layout, I started with a white background and began layering with several of the patterned papers, from the HKC exclusives to the Illustrated Faith rainbow chevron, and a Simple Stories “Sunbright” paper.
I used the HKC Exclusive Alphas that came in our Main Kit along with lots of the HKC “The Happy Life” Ephemera.
I added a few puffy stickers that came in the Embellishment Kit along with a few Project Life Chipboard Stickers. Lastly, I added a few drops of the Shimmerz Citron color that came in our Color Kit.
The just love the colors! I hope you all gain some inspiration from this one.
Hey Everyone! Ashley Fowler here, sharing with you a super simple, yet fun layout that I created, using the June2016 Hip Kit Club Main Kit, Project Life Kit, Embellishment Add-On Kit, Paper Kit, and Color Kit.
I began with a kraft background and knew immediately that I wanted to layer some colorful papers right in the middle. I used an American Crafts Dear Lizzy “Happy Place” paper along with a few of the HKC Exclusive papers and Simple Stories “Sunshine and Happiness” papers.
I offset some of the papers for a more interesting look and then laid down my photo. I embellished with several HKC Exclusive “Everyday”ephemera pieces along with American Crafts pieces such as the “Currently” PL collection, the Paige Evans “Fancy Free” collection, and a die cut phrase from the Dear Lizzy “Happy Place” collection.
Towards the end, I really felt it needed some sort of texture, so I added some rough stitching on the side of my layout for an extra touch!
I had tons of fun making this layout and I hope you all love it!
I’m back! With a super unusual layout for me using the June 2016 Kits—I really stepped out of my comfort zone for this one and I actually like the way that it turned off. Believe me, it took time for this page to grow on me, and I even thought about redoing it completely but I decided to keep it because after all, it’s a good thing to step out of our comfort zone and accept imperfections! My biggest challenge: NOT USING PINK! This challenge was set by myself so that I could try and make this page as masculine as possible. I think I achieved the masculine part, but the outcome wasn’t exactly my favorite!
I started with a white background and one of the Dear Lizzy die cut phrases that came in our Main Kit. I simply set the die cut onto my page and then sprayed right on top of it using the Color Kit’s Shimmerz spray called Mandarin Mai Tai.
I then began my layering process, using some of our exclusive patterns as well as some of the Jen Hadfield Pebbles papers. I embellished using several elements from the Main Kit, as well as the Embellishment Add-On Kit.
I then added some of the puffy stickers that are an HKC Exclusive from our Embellishment Add-On Kit and then hand-doodled with a pen around the edges.
I hope you like this one!
For my second project, I created a project life spread that focuses on several pictures taken of my sweet baby girl when she was about 7 months. (insert bawling face emoji here). Anyway, I took several photos of her before church one morning and loved how each and every one of those turned out. Why not use all of them? So, I did. It was the perfect addition for my PL Album.
I used a few of the HKC Exclusive cards from the Project Life kit and then used the Paper Kit for extra 3×4 cards.
I embellished with the Jillibean Soup wood veneer, puffy stickers, lots of Simple Stories stickers, and a few pieces of ephemera from Becky Higgins’ Currently collection and HKC “Everyday.”
I had tons of fun making this one and loved this process from the beginning. 🙂
Make sure to check out my process video for both of these projects!
