Happy Wednesday!

Today I am sharing a few more projects by our Guest Designer, Amelie Mordret created with our August 2013 Hip Kit & Add-On Kits.  This kit has an amazing collection of patterned papers from Echo Park, My Mind’s Eye, American Crafts, Fancy Pants, & Crate Paper.  I especially love the addition of the chevron printed vellum.  Layering vellum over a bold patterned paper tones it down a bit and keeps it from becoming the focus of your project. 

Amelie used the vellum on both her layout and her card, and I love the effect that it has on both projects.  The vellum creates the illusion of water on her layout – which works perfectly with her photos.  On her card, the vellum creates an airiness with just a hint of pattern.  I hope you are feeling inspired to get to work with your August Hip Kit.  I know I am!  Enjoy!  xo – Kimberly –
