CTK: Life Crafted Kit: 3 To Inspire!




Hi Friends! 

Welcome back for more Citrus Twist Kits: March Kit inspiration! 
Today I am sharing a few projects for the awesome 3-to-Inspire challenge

Before we get started here's the 3 things you'll need to feature in your projects to play along; 

1. Use pattern paper. There are so many gorgeous designs in both kits this month - so use them up!

2. Include chipboard embellishments. Again, there's a vast array of these in both kits!

3. Add Die Cuts / Ephemera. An easy one to keep things light hearted, &  just get you creating! 

Now, onto the good stuff! 
Firstly, here's what I've created with using my Life Crafted Album & March Life Chapters Kit!


Sigh! Sweet dreams, indeed! 
Such darling pages & a great design to showcase that fabulous pattern paper! 

Here's a closer view....


On closer inspection you'll spy that I have also used the 3 x 8" book mark as part of my page base too! The vintage appearance of this book mark softens the boldness of the pattern paper, and also adds a more masculine feel to the page! 


The chipboard sentiment circles, combined with the star ephemera are the perfect finishing touch! 

I also created a new 'tabbed' section for my Life Crafted Album using the March Life Chapters Kit too.....


Sigh! Isn't this pretty?! I instantly fell in love with that floral paper and knew I'd make a real feature of it! The cream scalloped pocket is also a fave of mine from this month's kit! 
(Especially as I love hidden journaling and interactive album pages!) 


& speaking of interactive elements, the "Did you ever hear the story of..." journal card is the BEST prompt card for this new section of my Life Crafted Album. A place to record all life's little chapters & stories! 


The hearts are such a soft take on chipboard stickers, and really add an elegant touch! Beautiful!

Next up is a super pretty layout that I've created using the March Scrapbooking Add On Kit

"Happy"


Oh!!! Such loveliness! 
You'll spy pattern papers Happy Place & Good Times from the Pinkfresh Studio Everyday Musings collection. I may be a lil biased when it comes to Pinkfresh Studio, but this line really has my heart! Oh.so.pretty!!! 
To showcase more of these gorgeous pattern papers, I also fold up the edges to reveal the B sides....


I layer & embellish this page with lots of the Everyday Musings ephemera too! 
For the chipboard element, you'll spy more of those exclusive ones from the March Life Chapters Kit, as well as a chipboard frame from the February Scrapbooking Add On Kit. 


Such a gorgeous photo cluster! 
Love it!

And there you have it! 
Three very beautiful projects for today's 3-to-Inspire challenge! 
I hope you'll join me and play along!

Citrus Twist Kits: 3 to Inspire with the New Life Crafted Kit!





Hi Friends! 

Welcome back for more memory keeping inspiration with a new edition of the 
Citrus Twist Kits 
3 - to - Inspire challenge! 
 I am so super excited to be sharing more of our amazing Life Crafted Kit! 
This new look kit has me swooning! 

Life Crafted "Fresh Starts" Kit - January 2019



I love this new look & fun approach to everyday documenting, 
but I also still love my 12 x 12 style of scrapbooking! 
So for today's challenge, I am also incorporating how I use Life Crafted for 12 x 12 layouts too! Yay! 

Here are the items you'll need to feature in your creating to play along:

1. Stamping There are four fabulous CTK stamps this month, and one's an exclusive included in the Life Crafted kit. Have fun & get inky! 

2. Stickers - There are some fabulous stickers in both the Life Crafted Kit and the Scrapbooking Add On Kit! I'm especially loving the Tiny Word Stickers in the Life Crafted Kit.  

3. Ephemera -  Again, you'll find them in both kits, or you could make your own from our monthly printable cut aparts! Yayyy! 

Such a fun & easy challenge for you to play along with! 
Here's what I've created using both our Life Crafted & Scrapbooking Add On Kits, 

"Hey Boy, You ROCK"


How awesome is this?!! Such a fun page for my cool kid!
I use the white cardstock and Shine Bright paper from the Scrapbooking Add On kit for the 12" elements in my layout. I layer my photo onto the exclusive Life Crafted pattern papers, and ephemera and then go wild with embellishing! 


The "THIS" stamp is from the exclusive Fresh Starts stamp set in the Life Crafted Kit. I repeat stamp it for maximum impact - so striking & tons of fun too! 
For the stickers element, I feature a mix of stickers from both kits but I am really crushing on the Tiny Word Stickers in the Life Crafted Kit - so good!


How cool are those faux enamel dots?! They're actually the inner circles from the O's in the Black Puffy Alphas Stickers in the Life Crafted Kit. Perfect! 
Speaking of alphas, here's a closer look at that super, mixed font title.....


So.much. awewsomeness!!!
You can see that the Scrapbooking Add On Kit has been carefully curated to compliment the Life Crafted Kit so we can enjoy the best of both memory keeping options! Yay! Love it! 

And because I really do LOVE it, I couldn't help myself... 
I've made a second layout for today's challenge, 

"Fresh Start"


Whoa! Another super boy page for my Mister A for Awesome! 
Again, I have combined both the Life Crafted & Scrapbooking Add-On Kits to create my scrapbook layout. I have also featured the Life Crafted Travelers Notebook Stamp; a new fave of mine! 


Those layers!!! 


The L shaped design of this layout is really eye catching, and I adore the split title! To add even more interest to it, I machine stitched it into place! Oh, and that title? It's from the exclusive CTK ephemera in the Life Crafted Kit! 


The Dear Lizzy Puffy Stickers in the Scrapbooking Add On Kit were the perfect adornment for this journal cluster! & yes, I'm still crushing on those Tiny Word Stickers - could you tell? lol! 
Such an awesome page for my sweet boy!

And there you have it! 
My takes on today's 3 - To - Inspire challenge! 
(& a look at how I am combining both kits to meet my 12 x 12 scarpbook layout needs!)
