April Kit Share - By Raquel

Hi everyone,

Some of you may have seen on our Facebook Page that next month we are teaming up with the lovely Give a Girl A... to bring you an exclusively designed stamp set in the May kit. 

I was so thrilled and honoured when the lovely Kellie Winnell from Give A Girl A... asked me to be a Guest Designer with her stamps. I used the 'You are the Best' set which is available to purchase in her store.

Of course, to create my layout I used the April APOCD Kit (there is 1 left in the store here)

In my layout I used the banner/bunting stamps, the star, the arrows, 'my happy place' and the 'you are the best stamp'.

Layout title: Always so content

Hello… well I hope that everyone has had so much fun scrapping away with the March kit. 

I would like to share my fourth page using the March kit, I had been saving this one piece of pattern paper by crate paper/maggie holmes. Oh it is so dreamy. I was not 100% sure how I was going to use it, but I am happy that we get to see lots of it. It totally worked for my base. I am in love with the arrow trend. I also love using numbers in a random fashion. I simply just think them as an embellishment. 

Any way I hope you have enjoyed what I have created with the kit.

Thanks for having me … Leeann Pearce

Just sneaking another one in....

Hi everyone.

Just sneaking by to post my last layout using this month's kit!


Another layout of Miss Maya!
I have used the "studio calico" vellum frames behind my photo and cut the title from the patterned paper! Too easy!! Lots of texture paste and stamping and various strips of the stunning papers in the kit!

Here is a gorgeous flair.....so sweet!!! And the gorgeous little flower stem mixed with some sequins and "studio calico" stickers. LOVE these sequins!!! I used a star punch too to cut some smaller stars from the aqua glitter trim.

Can't wait for next month's kit now! See you then, Eb x

Hello… 

APOCD kit lovers I hope you are creating up a storm with the March kit. So after my second page I had mega tiny scraps on my desk and thought that I would whip up a page using them. Of course I had to add some extra white cardstock in as I had already used that. This page was just go with the flow, freestyle loving. So now that I have shared this with you why not do this after your next page and see what you come up with.
