August Stitch and Colour Layout Kit

My friend Claire organises a scrap day at a hotel near where she lives every six weeks or so. A few of the ladies asked me to create a kit for them and so my 'Scrappy Kea Layout Kits' started! These kits have cutting guides and instructions as well as the papers, cardstock, images and embellishments needed to create the layouts - just add your own basics e.g. black ink, adhesive, trimmer and photos.

After Sharing the layouts, there was a bit of interest from other Makers for the instructions and cutting guides. I'm not sure I'm ready to share these far and wide just yet but it is something I am considering as a possibility!

Close To My Heart generally has lovely layout guides with each collection they create too - if you love double page layouts these are the way to go. My kits are single page layouts which is what I and most of the ladies I create with prefer.

New Grad

This month I used the 'Sunshine Vibes' bundle to create this layout for the Stampin' Up Artisan Design Team. Using die cuts to create stencils is a favourite way to create backgrounds for my scrapbook layouts. This bundle allowed me to do this and then to back some of the die cuts with in colour DSP. Puffy hearts and fussy cut flowers add dimension. If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator already and want the supplies I have used, please visit: https://laramoss.stampinup.net and head to the shop to look for: Sunshine Vibes Bundle Mini Alphabet Dies Florals in Bloom DSP

'Make a Memory Scrapbooking Kit

This was an easy way to get lots of memory keeping done at a crop yesterday! 7 layouts created and I put together another one from the kit today. There is still more left in the kit box to make 2 - 3 more layouts! I made a few additions - some stamping, splattering, stitching and threads to add some texture and background interest. Head to the shop to check out this kit!
