I have caught the stitching bug! I made a cut file for my cameo from a piece of ephemera from the Oh My Heart Collection by Paige Evans. I cut the title out of a sheet of white cardstock and then I painted another piece of cardstock to put behind the title. I used Shimmerz paints (love their colors) once I had the pieces together I thought it was the perfect project to stictch around! I used 4 different colors of DMC thread that match Oh My Heart. I love how the title and this layout turned out!
Love You Lots Layout
Ever since I watched the video of Paige’s half circle technique I have been wanting to try it! While I had my 6×6 Take Me Away Paper Pad out I thought it would be a good time! I LOVE how this layout turned out and I will for sure be playing with my punches more! I also used some papers from Fancy Free and the alpha Thickers from Fancy Free!
Loved Forever Layout
I have been hanging on to one pack each of the Take Me Away Ephemera and Die Cuts by Paige Evans for Pink Paislee. I recently bought the 6×6 Take Me Away Paper Pad and yesterday seemed like a good day to bust it all out! I made and cut a hearts silhouette file and backed it with papers from the pad. I also made a little library card pocket like the ones from Crate Paper, it turned out super cute! I love this collection and was thrilled to see all the possibilities with the cute die cut ephemera!! I found the littlest doilies in my stash and they fit perfectly behind the mini stitching hoops!
Oh Lovely
I got busy with my May 2017 Hip Kit to see what I could make. I had some Shimelle Little by Little stickers left over from the March kit and combined them with the Shimelle Little by Little papers in the May kit! I fussy cut some flowers from the paper and did a little bit of paint smooshing and dripping with Shimmerz Pop art Pink and Gold Heidi Swapp Colorshine. I used a couple of my favorite photos!
The Good Life Layout
This is my last layout using the March 2017 Hip Kit! I added the Oh My Heart Paper #06 to the leftover die cuts and bit of paper I had left from the kit. Fussy cutting the flowers from paper #06 was easy breezy! Paige Evans must surely have had fussy cutting in mind when she designed it!
Pretty Girls Layout
It is such a sunny happy Sunday today that I felt like I needed to go flower crazy on a layout! I printed out a heart from the digital version of Oh My Heart by Paige Taylor Evans for Pink Paislee, and then begged my daughter to stitch around the edge! I colored some old, old white paper flowers I bought from I am Roses years ago with Shimmerz Vibez in Heidi Ho Blue, Pop Art Pink and Rolling in the Hay.
To put it all together I used many of the flower die cuts from Oh My Heart and I used the Sunshine Thickers for the title that wraps around the heart! Such a fun layout to make!
The Simple Things Layout
The HKC FB Group had a moodboard challenge this week and this layout is the result of the challenge. It was super fun to make and I got out toothpicks and a skewer to make the hanging feather and leaf cluster! I used the exclusive die cuts from the May 2017 Hip Kit.
A close up!
Here is how my background looks before sticking all the bits down. I used Shimmerz sprays and a Lindy’s Moonglow spray. I have had this gypsy cord from Prima for awhile and it was the perfect colors for the layout!
Hey Sugar Layout
I tried something different with this layout and cut a bunch of the 2×2 squares from the Oh My Heart paper in half and stitched them all around the edge of the paper. Love how it frames the photo and embellishments in the center! All the pretty bits are from the March 2017 Hip Kit and I added some rose gold stickers from the Oh My Heart by Paige Evans & Pink Paislee sticker book!
The photo is one of my all time fav’s, I think it is the smile that gets me!
