Paper Issues: September Swag Bag Share!

Hi Creatives!

Welcome back for more Paper Issues awesomeness with this month's edition of 

I love me a Swag Bag or 3!

& today I'm playing with the August Swag - Let's Go! 

How fun is this Swag Bag?!!

Totally loving this travel inspired mini kit!

Here's what I created with mine.....

"These Are The Days"

Oh wow!!! La la LOVE this!

So many gorgeous 3x4 cards and embellishments in this Swag Bag!

From cute twine, to a Rub-On Pen, straw and enamel charms this kit has it all!

Let's take a closer look.....

How cool are those layers?!!

I made them appear bigger by cutting the 3 x 4 cards into half - such a clever way to utitilise those smaller paper pieces!

That gorgeous mixed media background is from my Shimmerz Paints stash 

(Vibez in Jeni B Bleu, Razzaldazzel Berry and Glorious Day)

& my 12 x 12 cardstock is patterned paper, Rose Park, from the Maggie Holmes Carousel collection.

Everything else you spy on my page is from my August Swag Bag! 

Here's another view....

SO much fun!!!

You'll spy lots of Shimelle, & Amy Tangerine in this cool mini kit!

How super cute is that Remember tag?!!

& I am totally loving the rubber and enamel charms included too!

Absolutely the best value kit around! 

I still have enough leftovers for at least 2 or 3 layouts - Yay!!!

Paper Issues: May Swag Bag Sunday

Hi Happy Arty Days Friends!

Time for some Paper Issues Swag Bag inspiration with this month's edition of 

The April Swag Bag is a golden delight!

Here's a peak at how awesome it is....

Ummm, WOW!!!

It's no secret that I love me a swag bag or 3, but seriously, this one is a MUST have! 

Possibly my most favourite Swag Bag of.all.time!!!

And because it's so awesome, 

I made 2 layouts with it (& still have left overs too! Yay!)

But enough chatter, here's my first layout....

"Hello Handsome"

Hello Handsome, indeed! Love this lil guy!

It's Autumn (Fall) here in Australia right now, and the golden hues in this Swag Bag are a perfect match for my Fall photographs! How cute is my Mr a for Awesome in those leaves?!!

Adorable!

I've used a patterned paper strip from Heidi Swapp's Magnolia Jane line, as well as that gorgeous woodgrain from Fancy Pants Designs' Golden Days collection for the base of my layout. 

Everything else you spy is from the Swag Bag! 

I know, so much awesome in one lil bag!!!

I just love that journaling / tag pocket, and that copper arrow is a firm fave!

Here's another look.....

Oh that straw! So cool! 

Here's my second layout, 

"Love"

Such a different vibe from the first layout, and yet such a fabulous Autumn page! 

Love this!

Apart from my white cardstock and watercolor paint, 

everything you see is from the Swag Bag! So much awesome in these mini kits!

Here's a few close ups for you....

That tag is seriously cool! 

It's from the Heidi Swapp Magnolia Jane collection & I may have just ordered more of these! ;)

Happy. Beautiful. Love. 

It says it all!
