Hi! Irit here with my first layout on the blog using the August kits! For today’s layout I decided to play with the color kit. The stencils Kim Watson designed are just fabulous and I used two of them here. The color kit also has some Dylusions paint in it, and I used the pink one here. The paint is incredibly bright and a little goes a very very long way. I wanted a faded look, so I only added paint to my blending tool at the beginning, and then worked with what was on the blending tool until it ran out. After the paint was dry I used the cloud stencil with Dylusions lemon zest mist from a previous kit. Less talking, more showing! Here’s the finished layout-

Once the background was done I added lots of embellishments in coordinating colors from the main kit and the embellishment kit. The Dear Lizzy chipboard pieces are just perfect for my birthday theme!

Thanks for visiting and I’ll be back next Thursday with a new layout! Have a great day!
