Hey there! Jen Schow here, to share a layout I created using the recipe for this Friday’s challenge in the member forum.

 

 

Here are the “ingredients” in the recipe:

 

 

I used the April 2020 kits to create this layout about a paint class I taught. I wanted to include a bunch of florals because that was the subject of our painting.

 

 

My photos included some purple, so I decided to add some purple into the design. There wasn’t much in the April kits, so I added some with mixed media from past color kits (as well as some liquid watercolors from this month’s kit.) I changed the color of the pink puffy alphas with a purple alcohol marker and stitched in purple thread – check that off the list!

 

 

I got in some chipboard and fussy cutting (check and check!) in my floral cluster at the bottom right of the stitched circle.

 

 

I included three photos – one of me teaching, one of the students painting, and one of the final project. At this point, I only have tags to finish the recipe for creating this layout…

 

 

I added one die cut and one fussy cut card from the April PL Kit under my photo to house my journaling and complete the challenge!

 

Here’s another look at the finished layout:

 

 

I hope you’ll give this a try. It’s a great way to jump-start your creativity! And don’t forget to share your projects in the member forum over on Facebook for a chance to win a Hip Kit Gift Certificate!
