March Layouts with Gossamer Blue

Just a couple of layouts to share today using my March Gossamer Blue kit. The first layout is a lift from one of the Gossamer Blue subscribers, Elmatt27. I just loved her layout, and for the Gossamer Blue Member Scraplift Challenge I wanted to use the bright colors and graphic feel that she had in her project. I used one of my Hipstamatic pics that was pretty blurry. It made for a perfect photo for this project though.

 

The second layout used the Elle's Studio Today paper on which I created a blackboard feel with the white gel pen title and some chalk ink. I then layered some bright colors with an Elle's Studio Summer Lovin' journaling box, some tags, and yellow washi.

Scraplifting with Gossamer Blue and Elle's Studio

I have blogged before about both Gossamer Blue and Elle's Studio. I L-O-V-E both companies. Gossamer Blue's kits are always so amazing and beautiful. And Elle's Studio has wonderful little tags and extras that are perfect for Project Life and Project12. (And they are LOCAL!! to me anyway!)

The two companies were having a fantastic scraplift challenge. Here is what I came up with. I used mainly pieces from my March Gossamer Blue kit, with a few additional patterned paper from the August GB kit, and some Summer Lovin' Elle's Studio pieces that I had in my stash. I also used a few of my OA Sprinklers and some Stickles glitter (I really only like glitter in liquid form!).

I combined some of the other My Mind's Eye buttons that I had, as well as a few more of their enamel dots. Lastly, I added some Cath Kidston washi tape. For all of the scalloped parts, I used my Kiwi Lane Designs Templates in Scallops.

Here is Magda Mizera's FANTASTIC layout. I just love her work. You can check out her blog HERE. She has some MAD photoshop skills. One day...

I did a pretty blatant scraplift. And I challenged myself to use yellow, which isn't my normal go-to color. I figured since it was a complimentary color to Miss R's onesie, it would make an interesting mix. Pin It

Yes, I actually scrapped in Salt Lake City...

Here are a few of the many cards that I made using my new October (Fall themed) Counterfeit kit. I really need to get the photos for it up, but they weren't that great... So I've not been in a huge rush to post them. 

Anyway, there are two girly cards to start. The first is perfect for a birthday, and the second just a great hello card. I even added Stickles to the multi-colored stamped candles.

 

The rest are just an assortment. I love all the woodgrain, pinks and blues!

This is a small, square card. Perfect for a mini gift enclosure. I do however have to make an envelope for it.

While I wasn't looking, my friend Venetia added the "sexy" underneath the "Hello". I thought it was funny, so it stays.

 Just a LOVE card. 'Nuff said.

This is for a cutey 7 year old's birthday in December. Her favorite color is orange. So I added an orange banner!

This is another oddly-sized card. I thought I was cutting the right size of paper. Nope. Oh well. It will fit into a standard envelope quite easily.

Hope you enjoy! Tomorrow is a few more Authentique projects!! Pin It
