Lucy Workshop Preview, Layout #2!

The fun I am having with the "Lucy" Kit from Close to my Heart continues! Here is the 2nd layout we will create at class.

Lucy Layout #2: Pictures= 1 H 5x7, 3 V 4x6, 1 H 3x4

The pink and green color scheme was perfect for scrapbooking my daughter's 1st Birthday! She wore a green and pink dress!

  

We will be using the colorful and glittery rub ons as quick accents on these pages! I used flowers in mine, but you could also use butterflies. The trick to rub ons is to be careful not to press anywhere that is not the piece you want to transfer. The set comes with a little wooden stick that you can use to press in tiny circle swirls against the transfer sheet of the item you are rubbing on. Once it is transfered it feels almost like a part of the paper! It is pretty neat!

We will also use two styles of zip strips on this page! We will use the giggle definition strip as a border under our rub-on accent space. Along the vertical side of the left page we will use the yellow lace zip strip. We will contour cut the scallop edge with our micro-tip scissors.

Lucy Workshop, Layout #1

The Lucy workshop kit from Close to my Heart is so darling! I modified the main layout just a bit to come up with the first layout we will create at the workshop on May 19th.

Lucy: Layout #1: Pictures = 2 V 4x6, 4 square 2x2, 1 square 4x4

I love the colors and textures in this workshop on the go kit! The shades of Blush (Pink), Sweet Leaf (Green), Creme Brulee (Yellow), and Grey Wool are so pretty together. The textures are girlie and feminine with argyle, lace, flowers, and princess.

 

The Lucy kit comes with a beautiful floral stamp set that has some very useful sentiments in it. The flower stamps are pieces so that you can layer them together with different ink colors. There is an outline stamp, petal stamp, and cent for each shape of flower. There is also a whimsical little butterfly. The sentiments are "a dream come true", "watch me grow", and my favorite... "a person is a person no matter how small- dr. suess"!

I used the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge from CTMH to cut out the flower shapes before I stamped them. That saved a lot of time that I could have been hand trimming.
