The C'est Magnifique July Kit

It's finally reveal day at C'est Magnifique Kits and I'm thrilled to be able to show you the July Kit I've been working with.  I love the combination of paper from UHK and Kaisercraft. Here's the full kit:




I recently got away for a few days by myself -- no husband, no dogs.  It was wonderful!  I slept in, read, and soaked in the hot tub.  I also took my July kit with me and created two layouts while I was there.  This is one of them.  Just looking at it reminds me of being there!  I used the beautiful black and cream paper from UHK for this one, along with a photo of my granddaughter, Eryn, and her boyfriend, Jake, before Homecoming last September.  The chipboard corners are from Blue Fern Studios.  I used one, as is, and separated the other one to add to my flower cluster.




Thanks for stopping by today!  Have a great week.

C'est Magnifique Kits July Sneak Peek

It has been quite a while since I've posted on my blog.  Things have been extremely hectic all spring as my husband traveled during most of it, and I've found that my volunteer work has become more than I can fit in my schedule.  But I have realized that I can't do it all, and have rearranged my schedule, which gives me more to scrap and concentrate on the things I enjoy.

If you haven't seen it on the C'est Magnifique Blog, the July Kit will feature paper 
from UHK and KaiserCraft.  I really love the combination of the 
cream and black from UHK, and the soft pinks and blues from KaiserCraft. 


Here's a layout I created using the July kit.  I've chosen this very sweet photo of my niece Macy and immediately thought I should title it "Walk this Way".  I have mixed both lines of paper by creating a frame with the graphic UHK paper.  The chipboard leaves are from Blue Fern Studios





I can't wait to show you more from this kit, but for now, this is it. 
I'll be back at the end of the month with more!
Thanks for stopping by.
