Kiwi Lane & Imaginisce

I was really excited to find out that Imaginisce and Kiwi Lane Designs would be working together this month doing a product swap between Design Teams :)  I love Kiwi Lane and all their great templates!  I had the pleasure of working with the Tiny Holiday Accessory Pack and paired it with Imaginisce's Outdoor Adventure line to scrap one of my favorite photos of my husband and I when we went to Aspen, Colorado last October.  Aspen is really beautiful and my husband took some absolutely awesome photos!

From accessory pack I used the tree and leaf templates.  I cut out two trees and layered them together to look like one large tree.  The leaves were cut out of fall color paper.  To add the leaf veins, I folded the leaf and inked the fold.  It added some great detail and dimension!

The templates from Kiwi Lane are fun and easy to use.  Just trace the shape on to the paper and cut it out.  Then add it to your layout.  Visit Kiwilanedesigns.com to see all the fabulous templates they offer and see how they use them to create beautiful projects.

Have a fabulous day!

August Imaginisce Challenge

Hello everyone!  Hope everyone is having a really great summer and of course getting some scrappin' done!

With a new month, there is a new Sketch Challenge with Imaginisce.  Hope you can join in the fun!

Once again this month, there are no challenge rules, except of course that you must use Imaginisce products :)

And here is my interpretation of the sketch challenge:

I used Childhood Memories and Outdoor Adventure Collections.  So much color and fun!  Just captures the fun we were having at the park that day when my son was riding his big boy bike for the very first time!

Visit Imaginisceblog.com on how to enter the August Challenge contest.  Have fun with and good luck!

Hope you have a fabulous day!

Father's Day Is Coming

With Father's Day fast approaching do you have your gift already to go?  Made, wrapped, just waiting to be given on June 16?  No?  Well you can find some ideas here today, and by jumping over to the Imaginisce blog as well to see what the Design Team members have made for Father's Day!

I thought this year I would make my husband a bookmark for Father's Day.  He is always using slips of paper or miscellaneous items in lieu of a good ol' fashioned bookmark...so now he will have one!   The Outdoor Adventure Collection by Imaginisce is a great for project that needs that masculine feel and was perfect to put together this bookmark. 

Layering was the key technique in this project, and mostly of embellishments.  

I added dimension to the embellishments by adhering them with foam tape.  I added some Stickles to give it a bit of sparkle.

Supplies:  Outdoor Adventure Collection, Foam tape, Silver Stickles, Turquoise Stickles, Brown Ink, Sunset Sizzix Font, I Punch, Twine, Corner Rounder.

Being that it's a Father's Day project, there had to be sentiment on there letting that special guy know what a great Dad he is :)  

Hope you found a bit of inspiration today, and find a fun and fabulous way to honor the Dad in your family.

Have a fabulous day!

Outdoor Adventure

Once again, Imaginisce has come out with another amazing collection!  Outdoor adventure has a beautiful color and pattern combination that is perfect for those camping, hiking, and fun outdoor photos.  In my layout, I went with the "adventure" theme that was captured in these photos of my kids climbing trees and being adventurous.  

One of my favorites in the collection is the woodgrain patterned paper and just had to use it along with several other fun patterns.  I had fun combining and layering the different patterns and creating the title for the page with the cute alpha stickers and embellishments.  

If you are a camper and enjoy the outdoors, then Outdoor Adventure Collection is the one for you!  I can't wait to get some fun camping photos this summer so that I can play with this collection some more!

Have a fabulous day!
