Decorating Fun - Elle's Studio

Hey there!

I have been playing with the March Kit from Elle's Studio and it is fabulous.  

I have already created 2 layouts in just little time.  I find it easy to do, since everything coordinates in the kit and all the ad-ons for the month match perfectly also.  

They also provide a set of Cut Files, Printables and Print and Cut 

Labels that match the kit each month.    

I focused on the Kit and the March ad-ons for this layout.   I used a photo from when we were up in Maine and we decorated eggs at my Dad and Linda's and bought my mom too.  

I was surprised that my Dad actually participated!  Look how pretty and bright these eggs turned out!

Below is the cut file that I used for the Bunny and the Cloud.  I cut the bunny out of vellum too, to soften the pattern of the paper.  Oh, the 6x6 paper was too small, so I butt them together, and cut.  It did split into two pieces,  but this easily came together and the vellum makes that connection line disappear!

I did paint my eggs with colors that I had on hand.  I sanded the edges to soften the color and distress the edges.

So, I do have an affiliate link with Elle's Studio.  This gives me a small portion of the proceeds that go through me.  So, when you click on anything from this post that takes you over to Elle's, and make a purchase, I get a small reward! YAY.

Happy St. Patricks Day - Paper Issues

I was out of town for this event.  They tried.  They did not succeed in trapping the leprechaun.  Each time I have participated, I didn't catch the slippery sucker either.  But, it is worth documenting especially with this super cute collection from Doodlebug.  Paper Issues sells it, of course!

St. Patrick's Day - Paper Issues

Morning friends.

Ready to start those St. Patrick's Days layouts with all the fun products in the Paper Issues shop?  

I got a head start using a sketch that Kelly Feldman designed for Keep it Sketchy in March.  

Sketches really help me get a jump start.  I am far behind on documenting St. Patty's day, so, receiving this product and a fresh sketch, everything came together really nicely.  

I used Doodlebug Lots o' Luck.  

This sketch would be fun for any topic.  Grab your stash and play along over on the PIFF FB page.
