Clique Kits Pep Ralley Featuring Punxutawney!!

Good Morning Bloggers! I'm so excited to be a part of this month's blog share! I can't wait to hop along too! This kit is so full of goodies, I just love it! Sadly, I haven't had much play time with it though...until this weekend! I'm going to another crop and I will be bringing my Clique Kits! 

If you didn't start off at the beginning, head on over to the Clique Kits Blog and start from there!! 

The challenge:  February is the month of love, which of course means gifts of sweet treats all around! Don't forget that in addition to Valentine's Day on February 14th, there is also Galantine's Day on February 13th! This new holiday was founded by none other than Amy Pohler (Parks and Recreation's Leslie Knope) one of my all time favorite non-scrapbooking related celebrities! The February kit contains so many fun sweet treat elements like ice cream cones and my personal favorite...donuts! So, this month's challenge is to use something SWEET in a project! Bonus points if you too celebrate Galentine's Day with your BFF's! I actually had a picture taken of my sister, grandma, mom and I when we went out for lunch on Galentine's Day and I fully planned on scrapping it, but life has had different plans for me...

I did get this layout done earlier of my 6 year old Caleb when he was a baby! I can't believe how fast time flies! So, I think this counts for something sweet! lol He's too sweet for words, and there's a pineapple on the page! Those can be sweet treats can't they? :) I'm on a clean eating kick right now, so if I wanted something sweet, that's about as good as it gets! HA!

I had posted in the Clique a while ago about current trends that I wasn't crazy about, and Pineapples were on that list...actually, it was the only thing on the list! lol If there's ever something that I'm not loving in the scrapbooking world, it usually ends up growning on me...it's no different with the pineapples! lol I absolutely LOVE this little gold embossed fruit! 

How awesome is this black flower washi? If you don't usually follow my blog, you might not know of my slight severe washi addiction, and this one really did NEED to be in my collection!

I just love these die cuts that came in the kit too! They all come in white, so you can leave them white, or alter them to your liking! I used a water brush and dipped it into my Heidi Swapp Color Shine to peach this puppy up! I love how it turned out!

Here's the line up for the hop. If you haven't started at the beginning, you really should! And don't forget to leave some love for everyone too! One lucky commenter will be winning a prize!

Lucky in Love

Happy Saturday my crafty friends! I hope you're enjoying your weekend!! We've already been to hockey and back, I've gone for a run and now I've got to get working on laundry, so naturally I'm procrastinating and sharing a layout I made last night! That's right, I scrapped last night and I was so happy!! I have been dying to scrapbook lately, but it seems like I'm exhausted once I finally have any time! So last night I was full of energy and managed to get some play time in! 

I'm using up more of my Clique Kits Limited Edition We Go Together Kit and also some of the goodies that were added to the shop in February! 

I used a small cup that I dipped into black paint to make the circles on the white cardstock. I dried it with my heat gun because I'm super impatient! Once it was dry I used my watercolours to fill in a few of the circles to make this super fun background! 

Here's some more close ups:

Once I was all done stitching my layout, I mixed some black acrylic paint with water to make it more fluid and I dripped and splattered it onto my page. Here's a tip that I should really listen to myself: when you're splattering an already finished layout...COVER THE PHOTO!! lol I ended up splatting a big old blob of paint right on my face!! lol Good thing we live in a digital age and all I had to do was print another photo! 

The February Anything Goes Challenge is up now at Clique Kits! Be sure to head over there and link up your project! There's a very sweet prize up for grabs this month too!

Love in a Bowl

Hey Bloggers! I wanted to share a fun layout I made using Clique Kits Limited Edition We Go Together Kit! 

One day I decided to treat myself to some Honey Nut Cheerios, since they're my fav and I very rarely eat cereal! I was very happy to see this cute heart in the middle of one of the Cheerios! I knew this kit would be perfect for this layout!

I die cut the background with an Elle's Studio cut file and filled it in with strips of  alternating pink and red paper :)

I love all the heart elements that came in this kit! It was perfect for enforcing the heart in the Cheerio!

This fun arrow and heart stamp adds a really cute layer too!

unfortunately this kit is sold out, but there are a lot of really awesome goodies still available at the Clique Kits Store and you can use my coupon code SARAH10 for an extra 10% off your purchase! Even sale stuff!! How awesome is that?! ;)

I've been in a bit of a rut these days and I haven't scrapped in 2 weeks! I'm really hoping that I can get some crafty time in tonight! What do you do when you're feeling uninspired?

Have a great weekend!!

A Valentine's Mini Album!

Hello my crafty friends! I wanted to share a super cute mini album using the glassine bags that came in the Clique Kits (sold out!!)  We Go Together Kit!! This kit is jam packed full of awesome goodies! It made making this mini for my husband for Valentine’s Day quite easy!

How cute is this little tag with the kiss rub on and the adorable little fringes that came in the kit?! That’s one of the many reasons I love Clique Kits! They always add these really amazing little touches to their kits!

I just love all the adorable ephemera in the Elle’s Studio die cut pack and the wood veneer?! *sigh* LOVE!

We go together like…Milk and Cookies! How cute is that?! 

I love all the mushy sayings and phrases on the die cut pieces too!

Also, how cool is that cork?! LOVE IT!!

We’re kind of goofy, I know! lol Actually, when I went to make this mini, I vowed that Chris and I would take more selfies because I had to really hunt for the ones I found here!

This little typewriter is one of my fav stickers that came in the kit! I just love that it’s typing out a heart shaped I love you! So cute!

again…wood veneer love! I can’t get enough of these!

This was the last page. An actual professional photo! Woohoo!

I I love that the glassine bags are partially see through, and I thought it would be a cool way to show off the patterned papers that I wanted to use, so I cut some of the patterned paper into tags to use on the inside of my album, and I wrote bible verses about love on them :)  each page has a different one :)

What are your plans for Valentine's Day? My husband is working, so no plans. We don't usually make a big deal about Valentine's Day, we kind of think that you shouldn't need an exuse to be nice to the one you love ;) But it is fun to have an excuse to go out for dinner or something! lol 

Be sure to stop by the Clique Kits blog in the next couple days to see some more projects I've made with the Special Edition We Go Together Kit!!

Blessings!

Clique Kits Tailor Made Pep Rally!

Good Morning Bloggers!! It's Pep Rally time!! I can't wait to go and check out what everyone has made with this kit! It has been my absolute FAV so far! I think I say that every time I see the new kits, but seriously, this really is my fav! lol You should have come here from the ever so talented Lacey's Blog. If you didn't, then you should definitely go start from the Clique Kits Blog and hop with us for a chance to win a prize!!

The challenge:  In the true spirit of Tailor Made, we want to see something sewn, stitched, embroidered, quilted, knitted, or crocheted on your project this month!  For extra credit, share some goals, hopes and dreams for the new year, or even your "word" of the year if you choose one.

I didn't do  the extra credit, but I definitely stiched all over these layouts! I just got a new sewing machine for Christmas so chances are, if I made it, it's got sewing on it! lol

By the time I made these two layouts, I was pretty much out of embellishments from the kit, so I used some of my extras that I had from the Homecoming kit. I still had tons left from that one because I just still haven't had a chance to use it! :(

I have had so much fun with this kit! It's so jam packed full of goodies, I managed to get 4 layouts, my PL title page and a double PL spread all with this one kit! Awesome!  Now, you should be off to the amazing Bonita Rose!! I'm off to check out all the inspiration!!

Blessings

2015 Project Life with Clique Kits and Anything Goes Challenge!

Hey Bloggers! 

I wanted to pop in quickly and share my title page for my 2015 Project Life Album. I am bound and determined this year to complete a full year in PL! I didn't use any pictures in my title page, but instead I used the Transparency Stickers from Amy Tangerine that came in the Tailor Made Clique Kits kit to add words of wisdom for the year. Things like: Stay Curious, Never Stop Loving, Be Mindfull, and See the Good. It's a great way to set the tone for the year!

This layout, along with some of the other fabulous Varsity Team's layouts are up on the Clique Kits Blog right now to introduce January's Anything Goes Challenge!! Head over there to check it out and link up your projects for a chance to win a $25.00 Gift Certificate to Creative Embellishments! The rest of the details are on the blog!!

Thanks for stopping by!!
