Scrapbook Circle | Our Story

Hi there!  I have a layout to share today using the March Here's The Story kit from Scrapbook Circle!  This month's kit, may just be one of my favorites!  I love the mix of Pinkfresh studios papers in this kit and the eclectic mix of embellishments!

To create my layout, I first splashed blue watercolor paint against a white cardstock background and then set aside to dry.  Next, I used their exclusive March cut file (included in the main kit) to create my background (confetti dot paper).  I used a circle punch to punch out pattern papers from the kit and the exclusive "Our Story" cards, and then stitched them onto my page using a sewing machine.  I spritzed small areas with green spray mist and then adhered my photo and various die cut embellishments.  

Thanks for looking!

Scrapbook Circle | String Art

Inspired by the new string art trend that is popping up on cards, scrapbook pages and wall art everywhere - I decided to create this fun look using the March Here's The Story kit from Scrapbook Circle.

To create my string art layout I used the Sweet Hearts cut file from The Cut Shoppe as a template.  I enlarged it and then cut it out with my Silhouette.  I placed the template over my background paper and then used a hole piercer to poke holes.  After all of my holes had been pierced I began to string the design with white embroidery thread.  I used my template as a visual guide so I would know where to thread each string.  After my string art design was complete, I trimmed a few pieces of patterned papers and randomly placed them behind some shapes in the design.  Next, I flicked a few drops of spray mist onto my layout and then added my title and photo.  I finished by dressing up my layout with embellishments from the main kit as well as the  On My Way Add-on kit and the Tell Me  Add-on kit.

I hope you were inspired by my project today.   Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Everyone,

I am sharing today to some vintage cards that I made for the Paper Bakery. I love all the little vintage ephemera pieces from My Mind's Eye that are included in the January Love Potion #9 Scrapbook kit. They helped pull these cards together in a snap.
