Hello Hip Kits fans! It’s Zinia here to share with you a really fun layout I create using the January 2017 Hip Kits.

The general idea for this layout can be created using just the main kit. In my layout I cheated a bit and used some embellishments from the embellishment and the project life kit but if you are subscribed only to the main kit, you can definitely make it work and use some different embellishments.

To begin, grab your favorite pattern papers from the kits and punch 1″ circles. You can use different sizes of circles if you want and adjust the design accordingly but I really loved how the 1″ circles are not too big nor too small for this page. This is a really great design to make use of any little leftover scraps you had from previous layouts.

Arrange the circles in three columns and stick them on a piece of white cardstock. That will guide our main design.

To start embellishing get a sheet of vellum from your Cardstock add-on kit and  transfer some of the butterfly rub-ons on it. Use your scissors to fussy but the butterflies and create some adorable DIY vellum embellishments.

To stick the butterflies on the page, fold them and place a little bit of adhesive in the middle. This way they will add a really whimsical feel and some extra dimension to the page.

I continued embellishing using some word strips from the Project Life kit and a few floral ephemera pieces from the Main Kit until I was happy with the result.

For my title I used a mix of different stickers and alphas across the kits. To balance the gold thickers I used, I added some gold splatters using my Heidi Swapp Color Shine spray.

I really hope you liked this page and you got inspired to create a similar design with your January kits. Make sure to stop by the HKC Facebook page and the HKC Member Forum for even more inspiration.

Until next time, happy scrapping🙂
