Loving all those tucked in pieces and layered embellishments! Heart this, indeed!

To coordinate with the pretty color scheme, I fussy cut those labels from the Pastel Labeled Journaling Tags. Such a fun way to incorporate these pocket cards into your scrapbook pages. Speaking of incorporating pocket cards into layouts, how about that lovely trim on the left hand side of my page?! Yes, both strips have actually been cut from the 6 x 4" cards! Awesome!

You'll also spy some of the sweet die cuts from the April Exclusive Kit here. I foam mount them for added dimension and interest.  

And the Love This Wood Veneer is just the best veneer title ever!!!

Love it!

The glossy white Wander Acrylic looks amazing positioned over my photograph, and really draws you into the heart of my page and story. 

Like my previous layout, I've opted for lots of layered goodness with the April Kit and embellishments!

Elle's Studio: July Kit & New Releases!

Hi Creatives! 

It's time! 

The all NEW Elle's Studio July Kit and Extras are now available! 

***Shop ALL the New Releases HERE***

Here's a look at the Exclusive July Kit......



Summer Sensation!!! Loving this color palette!

And the Add-Ons....



Eeep! SO many super cute embellishments!
And last, but by no means least, our Digital Cut Files & Printables...

I say it every month, but truly, so much awesome squeezed into this kit! 

And to get you inspired,
here are two of my recent creations with this kit!
First up is this stampendous layout,

"Good Times"

Wow!
With stamps this good it's simply impossible not to create with them!
I have also cut up the journaling cards from the July Kit into small squares, as well as the July Labels to form the base of this layout. So Cool!
You'll also spy those fabulous Vellum & Wood Veneeer Asterisk embellishments, Wood Veneer Phrases and even some of the older enamel dots!
Let's take a closer look....



I wanted to share my stamped background with you - it's been created with the Highlight Stamp, and was so much fun to make!
Lots of repeat stamping in those teals, aquas and blues, and then those black inked asterisks too!
Love how this turned out! Such an effective result!



Lots of luscious layers!



More stamped details with the Let's Have Some Fun asterisk stamp too! Awesome!



Super cool in the swimming pool!
Summer-tastic!

My second layout opts for a much warmer color scheme, and features the new Noteworthy colleciton,

"Every Summer Has A Story"

Sigh! 

Such a warm, and yet so refreshing Summer layout! 

I have featured Paper 4 from the 12 x 12 Noteworthy Paper Pack, as well as the July Kit, Summer Mix Puffy Hearts Stickers, Pool Time Wood Veneers, Labels, & White Alpha Stickers. 

I also add a little peach watercolor paint and lime cotton thread from my stash to add those finishing touches. 

Here's a few close ups...

Aligning the White Alpha Stickers title onto the yellow striped paper not only ensures a well positioned title, but also adds such interest! 

The Die Cuts from the July Kit are so much fun , and layering them with the Pool Time Veneers creates fabulous embellishment clusters! 

Super cute & so much fun! 

I LOVE the new Elle's Studio July Kit! 

I hope I have encouraged you to get yours today!

You can see more Elle's Studio creations from me a lil later in the month ;)

Elle's Studio: Sketch Inspiration

Hi Everyone!

Welcome back for more gorgeous inspiration with the Elle's Studio May Kit & Add-Ons!

For today's post I am creating a layout from this month's sketch inspiration.

 It's based on the 'Yes Please' layout in our April Gallery & is by the super talented Susan Brochu.

Here's what the sketch looks like....

Awesome, huh?!

 I've followed the sketch pretty closely, 
but I'm adding my 'twist' to it by using super bright colors, & adjusting all the proportions. 

Here's my take on it,

"Good FUN"

Good FUN, indeed! 

This is my two darlings on Easter morning eating chocolate bunnies, for breakfast, no less! 

Living the (chocolate) dream for sure! 

The bright, playful colors in this month's kit were perfect for documenting this happy moment!

And nothing says fun better than an over sized FUN wood veneer title, right?!

That veneer is just awesome, and the woodgrain contrasts beautifully against the rainbow of tags and labels! 

I love Susan's clever use of flags in her design.  I twist this idea, by arranging tags and labels into the flag style. I coordinate mine into similar color groups, and align each group with the veneer title, for maximum impact!

You'll also spy a few pretties from our new Noteworthy collection, including that super happy, yellow stripe, pattern paper base. Possibly a new fave o'mine! 

**The typewriter font journal trim beneath my photo cluster is actually the reverse side of the barcode strip from that same pattern paper** 

 

I should note that the 'good' veneer is from our Title Builder Vol. 2 Veneer set, and coordinates beautifully with our May kit! 

That FUN veneer title is a such a stand out feature!  

Stretching it across the page and adding the Puffy Heart stickers between the letters really adds emphasis to this already BIG impact title! So cool! 

 

Speaking of Puffy Heart stickers, you'll also spot the Gold Shapes and Dots adorning my layout too! 

  

 My photo cluster and layers are created from the 3 x 4" and 6 x 4" tags in the May kit, and embellished with some pretty Add-Ons, including those fabulous Play All Day Phrase Stickers.  Beneath these layers, I add a little tissue wrap from my stash to create dimension, texture & interest. 

And there you have it! 

My fun take on this fabulous sketch using the gorgeous May Kit, Add-ons & Noteworthy collection. 

I hope I have inspired you to get creating with these beautiful products! 

Thanks so much for visiting!

til next time, 

Happy Arty Days,
