Sunday Sketch Challenge | Citrus Twist Kits

  

Hey friends!  I am here today with this week's Sunday Sketch challenge for Citrus Twist Kits!  I used the October Scrapbooking Add-on kit, the Life Crafted "Flourish" kit, and the This Is Life "Ready for This" stamp.

Here's a look at the sketch:

Here's my layout based on the sketch:

I loved the design of the sketch and followed it pretty closely, with only a few minor changes.  I chose to convert the sketch from a 12x12 layout to a Life Crafted album layout.  Instead of two smaller photos, I chose to use one larger portrait photo.  I followed the sketch and added some layers behind the photo using several ephemera pieces from the Add-on kit.  I also added a fussy cut floral, a few ephemera die-cuts, and some gold puffy leaf stickers around the photo.  The vintage lace trim from the Add-on kit was perfect to add to the ephemera tag.

I typed my journaling and added it in strips below the photo.  I also added some pink tiny word stickers to the edge of the photo, following the placement of the labels from the sketch.

On the right side of the layout, I trimmed a ledger patterned paper to fit as a full page in the album.  I created the title using a gold puffy word sticker and the Soft Mint Alphabet stickers, both from the Add-on kit.  I also used some pale pink alpha stickers from a previous Life Crafted kit.  I added some stamping to both pages of the spread using the "Ready for This" stamp and the LC kit stamp.  A trimmed ephemera tag was the perfect touch below the title. To finish off the layout, I added a bit of machine stitching using black thread to several areas around the spread.

I love how this Life Crafted layout turned out using this month's gorgeous kits!  I hope you will join in on this sketch challenge and share your layouts with us on the CTK Fan Facebook page or on Instagram using the hashtag #citrustwistkits.  I will see you again soon!

October Reveal Traveler's Notebook Layout | Elle's Studio

Hey friends!  I'm here today sharing a traveler's notebook layout using the NEW October Kit and Extras that released today at Elle's Studio!  The new kit is SO beautiful!  I used this month's release to create my first October gallery project- a layout in my Life Crafted album.

The colors and designs in the release are gorgeous- perfect for documenting Fall and Halloween memories! I used the Jewel Journaling Tags and the Autumn Wood Veneers, along with the NEW Jewel Polka Dot 6 x 8.5 Inch Paper Stack and the Autumn Days 6 x 8.5 Inch Paper Stack to create the left side of my spread. The Documented Stamp was the perfect addition to the tag.

I also used the new Medium Jane Alphabet Stamp Sets- Outline and Solid and black and light gray ink to stamp on the right side of the spread.  Elle's Studio stamps are always my favorite, and I am so excited about these new Jane Alphas!  

I love how my layout turned out using these amazing goodies! Be sure to stop by the Elle's Studio shop to check out the October 2020 Kit and Add-ons!

Hybrid Life Crafted Layout | Citrus Twist Kits

Hey friends!  I'm here today sharing a hybrid layout in my Life Crafted Album.  I used the Life Crafted Journeys Kit, This Is Life Daytripping Stamp, and lots of digital files from the shop.

Here's a look at the layout:

To begin the spread, I enlarged a map patterned paper from the Journeys Digital TN Pattern Papers to 5"x8.25" so that it would fit as a full page in the album.  I created another canvas (sized to 4.25"x8.25") and added several of the arrow stamps from the Daytripping Digital Stamp.  I was careful to leave space in the center for the geotag cut file that I planned to add later.  I printed the papers, trimmed them to size, and adhered them so that the arrow paper was on top.  Next, using Silhouette Studio, I sized a geotag from the Journeys Titles Cut File to fit in the area I had left on the page and cut it out using a blue patterned paper from the kit.  I added some hand-stitching to the cut file for added texture and interest.  I always love the results when I take the time to add stitching to a layout!

I stamped the word "travel" and the trees icon stamp from the Daytripping Stamp onto the map patterned paper and used a circle die to cut it out.  I added it to the center of the geotag to serve as the title.  To complete this page, I stamped some sentiments from the Daytripping Stamp and also added a camera icon stamp to the bottom of the page.

For the right side of the layout, I opened a digital paper from the Journeys TN Basics Digital Papers and typed my journaling onto the page.  I printed it out on white cardstock, added my photos, and used an ephemera piece and chipboard stickers from the kit to embellish it.  I also did a bit more stamping using the Daytripping Stamp and the LC Kit Stamp.  To complete the title, I used the aqua puffy alphabet stickers from the kit.  I also added a "19" to the top of the spread, because my husband and I were celebrating our 19th wedding anniversary on this trip!

Be sure to check out all of the amazing digital files that are available in the Citrus Twist Kits shop!  I will see you again soon!
