Hip Kit Club - November kit!

Good morning! I am really at a kids Christmas party, but secretly popping in to share a recent page I made using the November Kip Kit Club kits!

I really put my digital die cut machine to do most of the work on this page. I used the Handcut letters cut file from my store JustNick. I randomly cut letters from different papers in the kit and then added them to the woodgrain exclusive Hip Kit paper designed by Kim Watson.

I die cut a few trees from my freebie for November at Hip Kits  and mixed in a Pink Fresh Studio diecut tree and some epoxy dots too!

That's it for me today! I will be back soon with more projects. :)

Christmas Pajamas - November Hip Kits!

Wow, time is flying this time of year! I can't believe it is already December 5th already! I am here to share another page with the November Hip Kits!

I wanted to record the memory for the kids of our yearly Christmas pajama tradition. When I was a kid, we didn't do anything of this sort  of thing and I thought it would be something nice... everyone always needs new PJs right!

I used mostly Hip Kit exclusives for this page, to create the ornaments, the letters as well as the acrylic embellishments! Lots of good stuff.

To check out my process video for this page, just head over to my YouTube channel:

Happy Holidays :)

Rudolph Ready - November Hip Kits!

Good morning!! I am off to take my kids to swimming bright and early, but thought I would share a page I created with the November Hip Kit Club kits!

This kit is more of a seasonal kit, with TONS of exclusives - wood veneers, patterned papers, alphabet stickers, enamel shapes, PL cards... so many good things!

I created this page with the mood board for this month in mind, using the color scheme, and the reindeer in my mind. I used some of the November cut files on this page as they went with the mood board.

For once I added in some journaling! I know, I rarely do, but I think with these types of layouts, some things require explanation :)... and really, it is a good practice.

That's it for me today ! I am off to swimming and then start some holiday baking for the school bake sale this week! That is my plan for this weekend :) Enjoy yours!

August Hip Kits!



YAY for long weekends... well, it is pouring rain here, but I still don't  have to work on Monday :) I take that as a win!

I am up on the Hip Kit Club blog today with a simple page using the August kits.

I really started with the fun grid/journaling card paper in the kit by Pink Fresh Studio... I cut it apart and added the cards to my background... I used the Dear Lizzy tape in the kit to add a row of "stickers" across my page and added on a few simple embellishments and a diecut title using one of this month's exclusive cut files!





It is a pretty simple page for me, but I do love how those stickers look across the page- so great for easy layering!  Stop by next weekend, I will have another page up on the HKC blog, hopefully with the September kits!

More August Hip Kits!

Yay for the weekend! I have a bit of an extended weekend this round, so I am extra happy! Hoping to soak up a little more sun before our long winter hits us here in central Canada! I have a sunny summery page to share with you using the August Hip Kits!

I loved the pie chart cut file that Kim Watson designed and used that on this page.

 

I obviously lined the back of the pie chart with various papers in the kits, and used some watercolor paint to color the white cardstock from the kit for some interest. The page is a tad warped... sorry about that in the photo! I varied the sizes of the cut file and placed them on the dried page and then added some stitching to keep it all in place.

 

 I had to add some of the fun embellies in this month's kits - so I pulled out some of the rubber charms and started layering with vellum from the kit.

 

I couldn't resist the chipboard glitter hearts and the sequins and enamel dots in the kits too! Some of my favorite layering items! Hope you enjoyed this project! I will be back next weekend with another using the August kits!  

It's August Hip Kit time!

Good morning!! I had a chance to rip into the August kits this week and can't wait to share! My first project is super simple. I really wanted to make good use of the different alphas in the kits, so focused on that for this page.

 

Truth is, I am not great with clean and simple pages. I always feel the need to add more of this or that. In this case, I really wanted the title to be the main thing (other than the photo of course), so did my best to leave things be once the title was there.

 

I love the mix of the woodgrain Thicker with the two different gold alphas - such a great and easy mix! Kimberly really takes all the guess work out of your projects by doing it for us :) I had to add a few of those great Freckled Fawn chipboard glitter hearts - perfect for this page about my girly leaving her girly evidence around the house.

 

 That's it for me today! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

One last March Hip Kits page!

Just stopping in this long weekend to share one last page using the March Hip Kits!! I will be cracking open my April kits and there was so much great stuff in the March kits that I had to make another page.

I have this problem with angles lately... so i used some strips of patterned paper from the kit, along with some new Happy Hues paint from Jillibean Soup for this page. I brushed some of the mint paint behind where my photo would go and went from there.

I added lots of gold rub ons from the Pink Fresh Studio rubon pack in the kit - they go on so great and so smoothly. No breakage on these puppies.

That's it for me today! I am off to make the most of my extra long weekend! I am off until Wednesday :)  :) :) Try not to each too much chocolate!

Last Cocoa Daisy kit share!

I am back today to share one last project using the May - Here I am - kit from Cocoa Daisy.

I wanted to use a lot of the fun and colorful Webster's Pages papers on a page and so I pulled all the Webster's Pages stuff out of the kits and ste to work. I used the cut file background from the kit on one side of the page, popped with lots of foam adhesive and added a few stamps with the yellow/gold ink from the main kit in between some of the spaces.


I used lots of the DITL add on on this page too. I love those fun Pink Fresh Studio photo frames. Nice and sticky, and great for layering. I stapled and added bits and pieces over some of the journaling cards from one of the Webster's Pages papers.

  

I cut the letters out of one of the cards to use for my title, adding in some epoxy dots to the "O" in the words for fun. Don't you think that would be a cool alpha stamp set??!

Here is my page all put together. I did end up adding in some of the pretty red patterned paper by Crate Paper, in along with the Webster's Pages papers!

Now, head over to Cocoa Daisy and check out the May main kit - Here I Am - and all the available add-ons too!
