Basic Grey & Pink Paislee
I was working with the Green at Heart Class Kit from Basic Grey. They always come up with wonderful layouts that you can create, however, I also like the challenge of using the kit to come up with a new look. Here, I took half the elements in the kit to create this page about Sisters.
I used a stencil to create the die cut background and inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The edge of the circle photo mat is the patterned paper, cut into strips and folded into pleats. The Take Notes circle tag was perfect for my title. Each Take Note tag has an optional overlay (such as the flower pattern below).
I used the Pink Paislee 365 Degree Deluxe Kit to create this fun Fair page below. The colors in this kit are so fun and bright. I created a 12" swirl as a background for my photos. After printing off the photos, I cropped them and added them to the swirl background, letting the edges of the photos overlap the ends. After fixing all the photos to my template, I trimmed the edges into the swirl pattern. I added a title, journaling a few embellishments and my quick and easy page was complete.

Basic Grey ~ Max & Whiskers
The rubon transfers in this kit are super adorable so I had to put two little paw prints on the journaling tag!
Some layering, some lace, a few rubons, a title and there you go, an adorable keepsake!

Finishing up my Pink Paislee Queen Bee
Like I said in the last post I just adore this KOTM and I am a little sad that all of my Pink Paislee ~ Queen Bee Delux kit is gone. :( I was able to make another layout using the Cricut Create a Critter and the Keystone Font Cartridge. The embelishments in this kit are amazing, especial the Prima Say it in Pearls and Roses!
I used the Cricut Create a Critter to cut the frame, bee and hive.
I love the Pink Paislee Expressions Chipboard Alpha Stickers and although as with any chipboard stickers there wasn't enough to say everything I wanted, I was able to match the font fairly well using the Cricut Keystone font.
I just love the way this layout turned out. Although the embellies are a bit feminine, the colors just felt masculine so it worked out perfect for my sweet little son!
I took all the left over bits and made this card.
I used the Cricut Preserves Cartridge for the pear. Isn't it just the cutest? The sentiment is from the Clear Dollar set Tangy Trio. I spritzed the Prima Leaf with Psst... Shimmer Spritz Gold to add just a bit of glitz and finished it off with a cream colored sateen bow!

Pink Paisley ~ Queen Bee
Luscious ~ that is the only way I can describe the Pink Paislee ~Queen Bee ~Deluxe Scrapbook Kit. The colors are muted and lovely and the embellishments are divine! As I was opening the Prima Debutante Stem I noticed how cool the packaging was and couldn't bear to just toss it.
Instead, I cleaned the sticker off of the back, cut a heart out the Honeycomb Paper and adhered it to the back with spray glue and cut the excess off.
Just look how pretty it looks with the Pink Paislee Expressions Chipboard Alpha Stickers on it. I love the distressed look of these beautiful letters.
I like to use my Xyron sticker maker on thin ribbon like the pretty dingle ball ribbon included in this kit. It makes it a snap to put down.
And just look how beautiful it all came together. I cant wait to use the rest of this beautiful paper and all the beautiful embellishments!
