Hi everyone today marks my last post on the Hip Kit team. It has been such a great experience and I consider myself lucky to have been part of this team. It's time to free up some of my creative time for travel + life this summer. I'll still be here watching and cheering on... Continue Reading →
One of my favorite design layouts is the simple grid. Using pops of color and clean lines is a great way to frame out a photo and tell a story. It's also a pretty quick process that's pretty easy to achieve. I always start with the heart of the page - the photo. Then I... Continue Reading →
Hey Hip fans, happy Monday! It's been a long time since I based a layout on a patterned paper. I naturally gravitate to clean white designs with pops of color, so I decided to challenge myself this time around. I chose this pretty watercolored chevron for the base of the design. In the center, a... Continue Reading →
Using the Hip Kit project life kit is one of my favorite ways to capture every day life. These are the less than perfect photos (with great memories) that don't always make it into my regular scrapbooks. The February kit included this faceted heart wood veneer and was my favorite embellishment in the kit. I... Continue Reading →
Hey kit fans, I'm here today sharing a layout created using the January 2016 kit and add-on. I tried to keep the color here nice and streamlined picking out all of the black, pink and white pieces. To give the plain wood veneer title a little pop, I added to coats of black acrylic paint. Layering just below the photo... Continue Reading →
Hey everyone, Nancy here with some polka dot fun from the January Kit and Add-On. The bright and colorful paint drip paper from Studio Calico is one of my favorites in this month's kit. To offset the bold pattern, I cut it diagonally and layered it with a more muted pattern. This gave me the... Continue Reading →
Let's start this week of back to the routine, with a roundup of favorites! I love this Crate Paper frame paper from the December Kit. The first thing I pictured was little squares filled with pattern and color. The story here is about my son at age 9. His likes, favorites, personality, friends and pop... Continue Reading →
The countdown has begun! With just 4 days until Christmas, I sat down with the December kit and Embellishment Add On to create this holiday page. While the kit isn't holiday themed, it was easy enough to use the elements and a cut file to tell this Christmas photo story. This faceted alphabet reminded me... Continue Reading →
Christmas traditions are something I've been documenting for years. The November Hip Kit was perfect for capturing this story of my son's wish list. The words are the focus here so I emphasized that by making a text background. The faceted alpha in the November kit is beautiful and makes a nice clean base for the... Continue Reading →
Story | Photo overload and holidays seem to go hand in hand. It's nice though when you can capture that one image that represents the season. A simple statement of what that year was like in your home. For us, it was this photo of Elf on the Shelf, Minecraft and a golden monogram. This... Continue Reading →
It's my favorite time of the year when the excitement for December documented projects start and kits are revealed. I combined bits and pieces from the November Kit, Embellishment Add On and December Documented Kit. The colors and patterns are beautiful, bold and oh so not traditional. I love that! This design began with an idea... Continue Reading →
This week I spent some time with some of my favorite pieces from the October Main Kit and Embellishment Add-On. I love the navy floral pattern in this months kit and although I wasn't able to work it into my regular scrapbook projects, I was happy to cut it up and showcase it in a... Continue Reading →
The inspiration for this layout started with a pumpkin spice latte and a beautiful leaf cut file from Nicole Nowosad this month. Nothing says fall like a good woodgrain paper and some hand stitching. The stitching was created to look like the letters are dip dyed - plain cream on the top and beautiful fall color... Continue Reading →
Happy October Hip Kit fans! I love the beautiful, rich hues that Fall brings and the October kit captures them beautifully. I started this layout with the string arrow. I centered it so that it would give me a shelf for my photo and some embellishments. The lower part contains a large title. //embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js This... Continue Reading →
