Howdy Y'all!  Thanks for stopping by today! This Simple Stories Collection of the April Clique Kits Anniversary box is perfect for those pocket page projects.  I ended up using it for 2 weeks of pictures. This is Week 8 in my pocket page album.  Lately, I've been taking pictures of my skirt.  Please don't ask, I haven't figured it out yet why either! The clear stickers and die cuts are especially great to work with. They are easy, readily available and helps put any layout together quickly! I seem to be using my attacher quite a lot lately! Again, not sure why I'm obsessed... Week 8 in the books with Simple Stories and Clique Kits! Here are a few other projects I made with this kit!

This is one of those layout where I start one direction and finish in a whole 'nother realm, in a good way! I made my background paper from various Kellie Stamps .  My intention was to have a variety of bold, soft, fluid, rigid shapes and words.  I then created two teardrop shapes to form a heart and cut those out using my Cricut in the shape of a heart. I was inspired by  the red and gray paper in the Felicity Collection by Pink Fresh Studios. And then the fun began; cutting more shapes, using the positive and negative 'heart' to create this layout.  I also watercolored some black paper to give the layout some texture and added it around the central heart. I find that cutting out the digital is starting be a favorite of mine in the design process. Height for dimension were very important to me in this layout. I can't explain why, but it just felt right!  Here is the final project.  I heart my family!  ...

Yippee, I'm back again! Kim here to share some digital love!  I hope that you are aware that you get so many freebies each month you could really stretch that kit! I figure you could almost double your paper and ephemera alone if you use the cut files and printables each month!    Lets start with this beautiful cut file!  So amazing!  Here's a tip...I found out that after cutting, just trying to pull the paper off the mat is not so fun. But if you place your mat right side down peel the mat away from the paper instead, your results are so much better with the delicate file.  Here is the printout of this months gorgeous designs!! I then pieced the background together with bits of printables and paper from the kit.  Those words fit so nicely in the leaves! I wanted each rose to have the same pattern so I used this soft buttery yellow and made sure all the stripes lined up under my cut paper. Again more printa...
