LAYOUT WEEK 2013, DAY ONE: The Day I Met You, 12"x12" Layout

I have a new layout and video to share with you today!

This one features goodies from the Hip 2b Square Scrapbooking June 2013 Hip Kit + Add-Ons.

 

 

Here's a look at the supplies that Hip 2b Square sent to me to use in this video:

June 2013 Main Kit

 

 

June 2013 Embellishment Kit

 

 

June 2013 Paper Kit

 

 

June 2013 Cardstock Kit

 

 

June 2013 Color Kit

 

 

June 2013 Stamp Kit

 

Below is a video showing all the kit contents in more detail. You can watch it here or over on YouTube.

 

 

 

 

 

For today's layout, I created this sketch:



Lots of fun layers on this one!

Here are some photos of the finished layout:



I used the Judikins "Sticky Stuff" embossing powder and the American Crafts WOW! glitter from the color kit to create the broad glittered stripes in the background.

 





The first time I've ever used any of the flair buttons I keep buying. ;) I embossed the butterflies from the Stamp Kit with white powder to create these butterfly embellishments. I love how they turned out!

 

 



An enamel dot is the perfect finishing touch on the butterfly's body! I used a punch from American Crafts and a label from Echo Park to dress up this corner. Look how pretty the glitter is behind that open scallop!

  

 



These canvas frames from Maggie Holmes are so fun to use.  I sprayed some wood veneer banners from Studio Calico that were in the Embellishment Kit with the Heidi Swapp Color Shine from the Color Kit. It makes a fun title with lots of movement.

 

 

 

I filmed this layout coming together for my YouTube channel. You can watch the video below, or click this link to watch it over on YouTube: The Day I Met You.
