    Craft On

    Hello crafty friends!!! Life has been a whirlwind of activity and I can hardly believe school is starting and Fall is right around the corner. I know its a bit late as this seasonal expressions catalog ends August 31st, but I want to share this fun kit with you. It is called Craft On and its full of crafty goodness! It amuses me that I am crafting pictures of me crafting using my Craft On workshop kit. That is a lot of craftiness! I think we could make a tongue twister out of that.

    I have so many different craft related hobbies it was difficult to decide what pictures to use this kit with. I felt the pressure building to find the perfect photos, then I reminded myself to just use the pretty papers and get creating. Sometimes we hang onto paper or embellishments thinking we need it all to come together perfectly. I promise you won’t regret using your products. In fact it is oddly satisfying to use up your crafty stash. Besides, then you can justify buying more! (Tee-Hee)

    Here is a look at the vibrant and fun patterned paper available in this collection. I love the cut apart sheet, coordinating stickers and embellishments featured in this kit. The crafting related shapes are perfect for scrapbooking any of your crafty hobbies. The color pallet is so varied you could really go in several different directions depending on your personal taste. You can play up the greens and blues or let the pink hues take center stage. Maybe create two layouts with completely different feel. I plan to scrapbook some fun summertime pool pictures using the blue and yellow papers in this kit.

    The blues and greens worked well with my gardening photos. I was able to create a single page layout featuring 5 photos by printing the accents pics in 2×3. I added pops of color with the rosey pink blooms trimmed from the cut apart sheet, along with yellow daisies and bits of sparkly sequins dotted about the layout. The black elements were popped from the chip board embellishments designed for this paper pack. I have always liked the contrast between black and pink shades.

    This “Choose Happy” sticker is perfect because finding the time to be creative does indeed bring me happiness and joy. This layout came together quickly and that makes me happy as well. Be sure to check out the You Tube process video below to see how this all came together.

    I am so glad you stopped by today. Leave me a comment to share your thoughts or just say hello. Happy crafting friends!
