Today I'm sharing a layout using the September Pocket Life kit from Citrus Twist Kits, along with their sprinkles kit from August.
Disclaimer- please forgive the photo quality. It's been cloudy and overcast for days, and my editing attempts to brighten were marginally successful.
Here's the overall layout...
And the full left page...
I picked my favorite pattern from the 6x6 papers to use for the title card and kept it simple with a vertical row of chipboard hearts and some of the beautiful Maggie Holmes gold puffy alpha. The hearts are from an exclusive Citrus Twist chipboard pack available in their shop.
The Pocket Life kit came with 2 thin wood veneer words. I chose to use the "hello" on on this card, but colored it a dark navy blue with a spray mist. The heart is from the Reset Girl die-cut pack also included the kit, which I stitched in place.
With the adorable cat paper in this collection, I had to include a photo of our little Molly.
Here is the overall right side page...
I used one of the exclusive 4x6 cards from the kit as a base for the card above. I sliced the yellow banner to tuck my photo underneath and added a bit of stitching to make it look more dimensional. The enamel dots throughout the layout were included in the August sprinkles kit. I love those gray marble-y ones!
The photo above turned out to be my favorite from this layout. I layered a photo frame (from the Cute Girl ephemera pack included in the August Sprinkles kit), a chipboard sentiment (from the exclusive Citrus Twist set) and more of the gold Maggie Holmes alpha, all on top of a full 4x6 photo. Simple, and I love the results!
And those gold alpha... gorgeous! I used sooo many letters throughout the layout and still have tons left!
This week also included an insert. I trimmed an October Afternoon page protector with 3"x3" pockets, and used it to document a hiking trip my daughter took with her friends. These printed photos came out a bit dark for some reason, but I likely won't bother reprinting. Sometimes I just need to accept and move forward!
Here's the front side of the insert...
I used a handful of hiking/outdoor pieces from Color Cast Designs on the insert. In the center, is their "Take a Hike" acrylic, layered over a heart from the Cute Girl ephemera pack.
The tab along the edge is from the Reset Girl die-cut cut pack, stamped with a sentiment from an old Citrus Twist stamp set. That bottom right card is one of the Citrus Twist 3x4 cards, trimmed down to 3x3, along with another Color Cast Designs acrylic.
Here is the back side of the insert...
Here's one last peek at how the insert looks in the album...
And that about wraps it up for this layout. Thanks for stopping by!
