Clique Kits Blog Share - August 2014

Welcome to the August Blog Share for Clique Kits! This months kit is called Glam Camp. If you love what you see, there are a few kits available in our shop a la carte! Clique Kits also has a few subscriber slots open. Join us before they are sold out :)

Now onto the challenge and my projects for the blog share.

August Challenge: "Wild and Free"

My first layout features a photo of myself. I cut out the phrase "wild & free" from the August printables. The background was a little bold for what I wanted for this layout, so I brushed white acrylic paint, watered down, on the background. I also LOVE the large flowers on MME: Ashbury Heights - Garden. So I cut a few out and placed on my layout.

 Close up of a group of flowers and the photo.

 The second layout is of my puppy at the lakes. I used a kraft paper background and added die cuts to the lower portion that were cut in kraft. I love the texture it adds without drawing too much attention away from the photos and the rest of the layout.

Finally, I created a birthday card using this kit! I love this sign die cut (available in the Clique Kits digi store). I cut it out in kraft paper and the sign and grass in pattern paper, which I stamped on. The sign pole I placed a stencil on top and rubbed on some brown ink. I love the burnt texture it gave.

Blog Sale

I know I'm a horrible blogger, but if you do look at my blog, I'm having an online scrapbook sale. Trying to destash my room, because well I have TOO much stuff and would rather see these items get used. I tried to price everything very low.

I have everything from stamps to paper to embellishments. I have about 60 more items I want to list, so keep monitoring it. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Payments can securely be made through PayPal (no need to have a paypal account to order).

Again, let me know if you have any questions.
