February Papermaze Kit - Part 3

Lynn here today, back with an extra post with the February kit. I made a total of six layouts this time with the brightly colourful kit. 


 Here is the kit:

For full details of the kit please see the first blog post.


Bright Lights - A photo of my girls when they met up at Kings Cross St. Pancras last month.

I gutted the 'Kissing Booth' paper to make a frame of 2.5cm deep. The white cardstock was trimmed to 26.5cm x 26.5cm. I used a Tim Holtz Layering Stencil THS003 Rays and Distress Ripe Persimmon Distress Ink, Over the top half of the card, I stencilled through with a blending tool, making the ink darker near nearer the centre of the rays. I diluted some more of the Ripe Persimmon and flicked this over the stencilling. Then I also used Black Soot, Mustard Seed Distress Inks and did a little more flicking. Once this was dry, I randomly stamped some hearts with the Black Soot Ink and the stamps included in the kit. 


One of the doilies from the kit was stuck to the bottom left of the rays. I store a strip of 'You're a Dream' paper, and with the black side up, I stuck this across the centre of the cardstock.




Using some scraps of Black and White cardstock, I double mounted my photo, and stuck this to the right side of the page.  The cardstock was stick to the centre of the frame.  I fussy cut a few tickets from the 'Kissing Booth' paper and stacked them to the left of the photo. Some of the tickets were glued to the base and others were raised with 3D foam pads. My title was made with two sets of letter stickers - Rockabye Black glitter foam Thickers and LDRS One Fine Day small puffy alpha stickers.


Finally, I scattered the Bo Bunny Candy Dots over the stencilling.

London - My Nephew and his family in London on their way to the theatre see Frozen.

I trimmed the 'Dream Chaser' paper to 21cm and placed this over a scrap piece of 12" x 12" cardstock. I arranged this with Aqua Bazzill trimmed to 8cm under the paper and 1 cm at the top of the paper. I added two strips of ready die cut Bazzill Basics Trims from my stash. 


With a Vicki Boutin - Colour Study - Bubbles stencil and Evergreen Bough Distress Ink, I inked dots over the area where my photos will sit later.


My photos were mounted onto the scraps of 'Dream Chaser' paper, using the flip side. I made a rosette with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits set, and scraps of the 'Ticket Booth' paper. I added a cardstock shape from a Doodlebug pack of Odds and Ends Chit Chat.


I made my title with a die cut banner, which I cut in white card and inked with Distress Ink. Then I added lettering with some Doodlebug Teensy Type Alpha Stickers in Lily White. The word 'London' was created with Thickers Cecily Glitter Chipboard Alpha Stickers.


More of the Teeny Type stickers were used for the date, and I also added a few more fussy cut tickets.

That's all for February, I'll be back soon with a new kit for March.
Thanks for looking.
