Hello Fall - Hip Kit Club

I'm up on the Hip Kit Club blog today with a new layout to share featuring the September 2016 Main Hip Kit and Add-On kits!

 I’m so happy that it is fall! It is by far the best time of year! Love the colors , the changes of nature and the so many outdoor family program.

I am sure you have all fallen in love with the Maggie Holmes ‘Gather’ ephemera pack just as I have and of course I wanted to use them on all of the layout! This ephemera is the base of my last layout, I just spiced up with some layered leaves colored with the Prima Marketing Oil pastels from my August Color Kit.

For my layout, I used the pretty mint cardstock and a mint patterned paper from Maggie Holmes Gather collection as my background and layered some the ephemera and pieces of patterned paper around my photo.

For adding dimension I stitch around some of the ephemera.I picked out some Maggie Holmes Gather and Simple Stories gold tickers and ephemera from my September Kit and embellished my layout with them. They gave a beautiful shine for my page.

 These pretty leaves cut file are designed by Kim Watson and free downloadable if you are  subscriber. In this short video you can check how I created these mixed media leaves:

Thanks for stopping by, and happy crafting! BEA
