Have you taken notice of the
Kaleidoscope paper collection from Close To My Heart?
Such bright,
fun colors to work with!!
My
monthly group of ladies, enjoy creating scrapbook pages….so I needed to create
some of my own pages, since there was not a Workshop kit that CTMH created for
this paper collection. J
(But you'll want to take note of the ADORABLE Kaleidoscope cardmaking kit they DO have available!!)
Here are the layouts I
created…
Layout 1 was
created from a layout design that CTMH gave us at this summer’s 2015
Convention.
I wanted to
use only colors from the Kaleidoscope paper collection – so I needed to trade
out some cardstock colors compared to the original CTMH layout, to make this
happen.
While I do
like the “original” layout & colors by CTMH, I was really excited how this
layout turned out by only using the colors included in the Kaleidoscope paper
collection.
As I was
creating these set of layouts, I wanted to use the coordinating Kaleidoscope
Complements on all three layouts, so I incorporated these fun goodies in each
layout as well.
Let’s take a
close-up look at some of Layout 1 details.
We did some
stamping on this 1st layout, and I “copied” directly from the CTMH layout.
Check out the “flowers” we created with this stamp set, we used the leaf stamp image from the FRIEND TREE stamp set!! I LOVE to use stamp images in ways we don’t think about – and that’s how we created this flower!!
Below, the bicycle needed some glitter hearts and the dotted strip of paper is a “zip-strip” that’s an “extra goodie” included with CTMH paper collections!!
Here is
layout 2….we used Pear cardstock as our base pages.
Let’s see a
few close ups of this page…
The large
diamond is a sticker that comes in the Complements collection. I mounted that
on a scrap piece of canary cardstock & then cut a piece of white shimmer
trim to give it some sparkle.
Also, note
that the clear stickers were used just like they are. (check out layout 3 for another way to use the clear stickers)
I used a
mixture of the 3D shapes, stickers & added white shimmer trim to give it
some pop!
It’s fun to
dove-tail the shimmer trim OR just cut it off on an angle!! This is ONE product
that I use all the time, you can use it in so many ways!!
Layout 3 was
created using Pattern 3, from our Make It From Your Heart #2 how-to- book.
As I
mentioned above – this time….take note of the “clear stickers” on this layout. These "clear" flower
stickers are no longer clear, but I mounted them on white daisy cardstock &
then cut them out to place them as accents on the layout!!
Here is a
close-up of the title of this page…
Again, I added the "fun day" sticker to a piece of scrap gypsy cardstock. and added a piece of shimmer trim behind the title.
The tie dye
zig zags are a sticker, but – since I don’t like to waste anything J…I cut another set of zig zags out of the negative space
& used that on the right side of this layout too!!
By clustering
many elements together, you get a really neat scrapbook page!!
