Hi there friends. I am loving the  versatility of the May kits.  There are the prettiest of papers and embellishments paired with gorgeous travel goodies.  I have scrapped a photo from a trip to New York last year and the kit is totally perfect with it’s bright colours and accessories.

I started with white cardstock and used Broken China Distress Oxide ink to blend the world map stencil. I then used Squeezed Lemonade and a sunburst stencil for a bit more interest. Outlining the stencilled background with a grey fineliner, gives the sunburst delicate definition.

The gorgeous rainbow washi tape in the main kit is a perfect placeholder for my photos and embellishments. I added a little black stencilled element and splahses of orange paint for a bit of drama.

The Vicki Boutin Let’s Wander die-cuts are brilliant for your travel elements. I adore the paper plane and titles inside.  I made my own paper plane which I layered onto the globe die cut.

I matted the photos onto various papers from the main kit and tag from the cut apart sheet. To create the journal spot at the bottom of the layout,  I dipped a lid from a jar into orange paint to create the coffee stain.  I then drew around the same lid in black pen and added ‘stitching’ doodles.

To finish off, I layered Amy Tangerine Thicker stickers from the Pocket Life kit. These are awesome – bright useful phrases and designs and some have glitter for added sparkle.  The perfect finishing touch.

I hope I have inspired you to use your May kit. I can’t wait to see what you create – don’t forget to them with us on on our Facebook group.

Thanks for stopping by.
