Clique Kits: June Blog Hop

Welcome to the June Blog hop! If you started here, head back one blog to the Clique Kits blog! I LOVE the June kit, I wish I could clear my schedule more to use it! It is filled with so many fantastic products, papers and patterns! I can't wait to kill the kit with photos from the lake this summer and time spent with family and friends!

Today I'm sharing an 8.5" x 11" layout with this kit. I had a hard time starting this layout, but with input from crafty friends, I LOVE how this turned out.

his is what I started with. I was just not sure WHERE to start. I prepped my paper with Gesso and had this adorable picture of my puppy after his hair washing last month.

Here is my process of layering. Nothing is adhered down yet. Don't you just LOVE those gold chipboard letters?!

And here is the final layout. I added little bits to the layout as well as trim around the edge to leave way for a pattern paper frame, to ground the layout more.

Some close ups. I LOVE the transparencies in the kit! It adds a little extra texture to the layout!

 Look at that adorable face!!

Clique Kits: May 2015 Blog Share

Welcome!! So glad you are joining us today for our May Blog Share! I enjoyed working with this kit. The colors and patterns are really universal! Today, I will be sharing two layouts I created.

Rent A Family

Matt & I get the opportunity from time to time to "watch" our dancers. This past weekend at a dance competition, we had two of our dancers spend the night and we drove them down to the dance competition. We called ourselves a "Rent a Family". I would "rent" anyone of our dancers. They are all well behaved and keep us entertained with their wacky personalities.

My second layout, I decided to play with color. I'm still new at using Gelato's, but decided to play around with them. I think using a lots of color works with this kit as the papers have so many colors threaded through. I also highlighted this journal card that was included in the kit. I love all the colors and the water color look.

Thanks for joining us today! Be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win this awesome May Kit: Carnival!

Clique Kits: April Blog Share

I can't believe ONE year ago we launched our first kit! Here we are a year later with sold out subscriptions and a wait list. It really is awesome to be apart of this company to help put together fantastic kits to help you all document your memories.

The challenge:  Celebration Month!

Show us a celebration of any kind for this month's Pep Rally- it could be a birthday, anniversary, wedding, reunion, or just an everyday party...you can either show us in a layout, make a card for any celebration, or  show us how you use your supplies for party decor-the sky's the limit!

My first layout is my "Celebration" Layout! The photo was from last 4th of July and Spock was playing outside with my nephews.

I was REALLY busy with this kit. I even have projects completed that I haven't even photographed yet.

Here is layout #2. I love my puppy (can you tell). This is one of him sleeping one afternoon.

Layout #3 is about me.  It is very rare that I wear my glasses and to take a picture is even more rare. But it is part of me and why not celebrate it. I also played around with water colors on this layout.

Layout #4 is again of my puppy. This picture was taking when we took a trip out to the lake last summer. He loves looking out the window in the truck.

I'll be sharing more April projects and Clique Kit: Spring Cards on my Instagram and Creative Facebook page in the next week or so. So, please follow to check out more!

March 2015 Blog Share

Happy March!! Thank you for joining us today for the Clique Kits Blog share! I just ADORE the March kit! I couldn't WAIT to break into it and scrapbook! Of course, every month Clique Kits likes to challenge their blog participants. So here is the March Challenge.

March Challenge Add a Pop of Neon to your Project. 

I did just that with my first layout! Using the background diecut, I cut this out in kraft paper and than painted it with hot pink paint. I love the black and & white brush stroke paper, so I placed that die cut on top of this paper. It really added the pop I wanted!

The picture on this layout is of my dad & I right before he walked me down the aisle. I used a Pinkfresh Studio epoxy frame (from last April or June kit - I can't recall which one) to frame the picture and layered various embellishments from the kit! I also used the AlteNew origami stamp set to stamp the butterfly (now sold out, but we have another awesome AlteNew stamp Painted Flowers).

Supplies used: Clique Kits (March Kit 2015 - sold out); Clique Kits: March Cut File; AlteNew: Origami Stamp Set.

My second layout is of my puppy, Spock. This also has pops of neon against the very simple background. I used the really awesome transparencies to pop against the simple neutral background. These pictures were from last summer. My little pup loves big sticks and running around the backyard. This kit was perfect to highlight his spunky side.

Supplies: Clique Kits: March 2015 Kit; WRMK: Clearly Bold - Wood Stickers (from my stash)

I've had so much fun with this kit and still have so much more to use; which I can't WAIT to use up!

Of course we have a PRIZE giveaway today, so don't forget to leave a comment on my blog and all blog along the hop! A winner will be chosen out of all the comments, so the more blogs you comment on the better your odds are! Hopefully today is your Lucky day!

February Blog Share

Happy February!! The year is moving along at a nice pace. But lets not get too far ahead of ourselves and enjoy the month of LOVE. You should have arrived here from Jody's blog.

February Kit - Punxsutawney. Not a subscriber, get yours today!

The challenge:  February is the month of love, which of course means gifts of sweet treats all around! Don't forget that in addition to Valentine's Day on February 14th, there is also Galantine's Day on February 13th! This new holiday was founded by none other than Amy Pohler (Parks and Recreation's Leslie Knope) So, this month's challenge is to use something SWEET in a project! Bonus points if you too celebrate Galentine's Day with your BFF's!

I have created a layout with two of my favorites; my husband, Matt and our puppy Spock. So as for as something sweet, that puppy of ours would be my something sweet.

Clique Kits - January Pep Rally

Happy January! Welcome to the Clique Kits Pep Rally. You should have arrived here from Jody's blog.

January Challenge
In the true spirit of Tailor Made, we want to see something sewn, stitched, embroidered, quilted, knitted, or crocheted on your project this month!  

Obviously one of my favorite subjects is my puppy. And I adore this picture of him, getting up close to the camera (since he is typically camera shy). I stitched the wood piece that was included in the kit to add some texture and a little love to the layout!

I made a Flipagram on how I put my layout together! Enjoy!
