Ashley Horton here with you today, and I am sharing a fun layout and card that I created with our January 2014 Hip Kit & Add-On Kits. 

I love to use geometric shapes on my layouts, so I thought it would be fun to add some large triangles behind my photo on this layout design.  I used my CAMEO to cut the triangle shapes from the Crate Paper and American Crafts papers included in the January Kit.  The triangles are cut to 2.75×3 inches.  Once I had the triangles in place, I added my photo, embellishments and title.  I also wanted to add just a touch of texture, so I stitched around the Teal triangles.

I decided to go for a more simple design on this card, and used the White cardstock from the kit, as my base.  I used my CAMEO to create a positive and negative effect with the heart shapes, and also used it to cut the word Hello for part of my sentiment.  The Studio Calico Wood Veneer alphas in the January Kit are perfect for cards, because they are so light weight and small.  They worked perfectly to complete the sentiment on my card.
