LET’S USE CUT FILES – ANKE KRAMER – SEPTEMBER 2023 HIP KITS

Hi everyone, Anke here sharing a new layout inspiration featuring the gorgeous September Hip Kits.

 

 

For this layout I used two of our exclusive September cut files, the “Apple Wreath” cut file and the “Floral Medley” cut file, which I cut from white cardstock. I also cut one of the flowers  in three different sizes and colors from the “Essential Solids – Volt Yellow, Ballet Pink and Independence Blue” papers, which are included in the  September Cardstock Kit.

 

 

Then I backed the cut files , starting with the leaves, which I backed with pieces of green cardstock from my stash. I glued the pieces of the blossoms together and added Nuvo Drops to the center of each flower. So I got beautiful layered flowers, which I could use to decorate my wreath.I put the flowers aside so that the Nuvo Drops could dry and continued backing the wreath. Therefore I used the same cardstock as for the layered flowers.

 

 

I cut a background from white cardstock using the “December 2022 Woven Background Metal Die” And I cut a circle from the “Essential Solids – Swimfest Blue” cardstock, which is also included in the September Cardstock Kit. I placed the blue circle the woven background and the wreath on my layout and added the other leaves and branches.

 

 

Then I chose my photo. I didn’t want to use the complete photo. I just cut out my dogs, sitting on the bench together and added a chipboard frame and other chipboard die cuts, which are included in the September Main Kit. I also cut out a tag from one of the “Cut Apart Tags, Tabs & Labels” sheets, which are included in the September Pocket Life Kit and glued it behind the chipboard frame. Then I  added two of the tassels, which are included in the September Embellishment Kit.

 

 

I picked out two butterflies from the “New Day – Mini Puffy Stickers” pack, which is included in the September Embellishment Kit, pierced holes and stitched the butterfly trails.

 

 

I placed one of my layered flowers on each flower of the wreath to add dimension.

 

 

For my title I chose one of the cardstock word stickers, which you can also find in the September Embellishment Kit.

 

 

I continued embellishing the layout with more chipboard and puffy stickers and some of the cardstock die cuts from the September Main Kit. I also added one of the wood buttons from the “New Day – Embellishment Pack”, which is also included in the September Main Kit and some floral die cuts from the September Embellishment Kit.

 

 

I finished with some Nuvo Drops from my stash.

 

 

This is my finished layout. I hope you like it and feel inspired to use some of our cut files on your next project.
