Hello paperlovers,

Welcome to the HKC blog today! It’s Josefine here on mixed media Monday sharing with you a new scrapbook layout using the beautiful August 2021 hip kits. For this layout I used two HKC cut files. I grabbed a white piece of cardstock and cut out the circle cutfile calls ” So Happy” with my Cricut Maker” Behind the “So Happy” words I place a design paper from the August main kit. I stitched a circle through the words with white sewing thread and used my sewing machine for this.

I color some words “So Happy” with the pink color dye ink from the August 2021 color kit and I placed these back on my layout by using 3D tape. I stamp with the yellow color also from the August 2021 color kit several times on the white background in the center of the layout. For this technique I use the background stamp from the HKC July 2021 color kit. I cut a circle out of the yellow design paper and placed my round photo on top and placed it both in the center of the layout. I fussy cut 4 mandalas from the design paper and place them behind the photo.

I mix the yellow and pink dye ink together to make the color orange. I use the fun stencil of the oranges. I cut them out and stitch them with yellow sewing thread and place the oranges randomly as die-cuts.

I cut another cutfile “So Much Fun!” I cut the title with my Cricut Maker and color the title together with my blending tool and the pink dye ink. I used other Alpha’s from previous HKC kits and so my title is complete. The title for this layout is “She is so much fun!” I love how everything comes together so nicely. I mix white acrylic paint with water and with my watercolor brush I make splatters on my layout. It looks so festive. I love it.

I hope I was able to inspire you with this cheerful and colorful layout. I had a lot of fun making this mixed media layout and with the beautiful ink colors from the August 2021 color kit. Don’t forget to check out the Facebook group and HKC Youtube Channel for even more awesome inspiration with the beautiful HKC kits!
Hope to see you next time on the HKC blog.
