Later Sk8R Layout #4

The "Later Sk8R" Workshop on the Go Kit from Close To My Heart is so much fun to work with I had to make a 4th 2 page layout with it!


This is a 2nd Camping themed scrapbook layout I have made with this kit. Camping did not originally come to mind when I saw the kit, but I am both surprised and loving how the pictures pointed out that they belonged with it.


The pattern that I used on these pages is from the "Make It From Your Heart" Vol 1 book, page 34. I changed it slightly by making the photo spaces larger (taller). I am very happy with how it came out.  The paper sections allow for texture, movement, and detail. The photo spaces are large enough to tell a story, but also motivate me to edit my photos and seek out the most important elements.


I love the sentiments on the zip strips and how fast and easy they are to add to a page! I lined them up with the edges of my patterned paper and then let them hang off the other side. I accented them with the blue and green epoxy bubbles.

Thanks for checking in to peak at what I have been working on!

Later Sk8R Layout #3

I have had so much fun working with the Later Sk8R workshop on the go kit from Close To My Heart!  Here is my third layout! This layout was dreamt up by two of my friends and myself. We were inspired by the Magic How To Book pattern called "On With The Show" (page 62).


We used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to cut a large gear shape to use as our circular accent. (Mine was set to 11" and I cut it into quarters).


I am in LOVE with the "Tiny Type Epoxy Alphabet" adhesive letters (only $5.95!). It is so easy to add a subtitle that gives a page added detail and a finished polished look!


I also like the way that the stars and gears from the accessory packet pop. They are a good thickness to add dimension, shadow, and depth- but not so thick that they will warp your pages and make your book bulge. I prefer low profile accents myself and these pass my test.

I can't wait to get a few photos from my Son's classroom teacher and add them to this layout! I will have to check back when I do that and provide an updated photo for you!

Hope you had fun checking in to see what I have been working on! Go forth and "Play Hard!"

Later Sk8R Scrap Layout #1

"Later Sk8R" Layout #1- Altered from "Mystify" pattern in Magic Book
I could not wait to get this new paper pack from Close To My Heart out on my craft space! "Later Sk8R" features plaid pattern and Lagoon teal color! I knew right away it would be perfect to scrapbook my son's first day of Preschool! For my first layout that I created with the Workshop On The Go Kit, I used the sketch called "Mystify" from the Magic Book. (I made some measurement changes to fit my photos in).


My son was so distracted by his excitement for preschool that he forgot to ham it up and actual stood still for this photo!


I used the diamond plate texture stamp from the kit to create a grey on grey backdrop for where my title is placed.


I used my NEW Artiste Cricut Cartridge to create my title letters in Outdoor Denim Cardstock. I added the spoxy letters for sub-titles under the headline.






This "Hello" stamp is from one of the 3 stamp sets that came with my Artiste Cartridge. I felt it was a good fit for a first day of school and meeting new people.

List of Supplies:

  • Later Sk8R Workshop On The Go Kit
  • Cricut Artiste Cartridge for text and hello stamp base
  • Grey Ink
  • Tiny Epoxy Alphabet
Hope you have had fun seeing what I made with my Later Sk8R kit. Stay tuned for more. This is one of 4 layouts we will create at the March 9th Scrap Class! Contact me for more information if you can join us!
