KLD - Blog Hop





Hello everyone.  I'm SOOO excited to be able to take part in this wonderful blog hop being hosted by Kiwi Lane Designs.   I absolutely love using these template when creating cards and layouts. The time savings alone is remarkable, but the paper savings is by far the best thing ever.  I no longer purchase "mess-up" paper.  
This blog started at Kiwi Lane Design's Blog
There are 12 stops along the way.  There will be one random winner from all the blog comments. You can check out the Kiwi Lane Blog on Thursday, September 12 to see who wins the great swag from Sn@p.

  
You should have just come from
 Staci's Blog Scrapbooking is Cheaper than Therapy.
 
For my project I created a two page 12 x 12 layout.  I started with some Designer Series paper from Stampin' Up called World Spectacular.  I was able to use the 12" long Sunny Brooklane Boarder set to create the fun top and bottom layers.  I really like how you can match up the edges and makes them look continuous across both pages.  


 I used the the Photo Mats and Photo Sets to create my picture spaces and then rounded the corners.   I used the Tiny Bracket set to create the top of the tag.  I stamped enjoy the ride on top of the tag.


I used a ticket punch to pop out a few tickets that are sticking out of the photo mat on the right. 



Thanks for stopping by today.  To check out some more great ideas using the Kiwi Lane Design products continue on.  Your next stop is

You should have hoped here from Cuttin' and Stampin' blog

  I started with a digi stamp from The Paper Shelter.  I wanted to create a cute summer card using the Lucy's Crab Shack paper pack. 


The banner is from the sticker sheet.  I backed it with card stock, fussy cut it out and put it on foam tape.  I used Copics to color the image and used glossy accents on the glasses and the water glass.  I used Kiwi Lane templates to cut out the waves.


The inside of the card is one of the Journal Cards cut down to fit on the blue beach paper mat.

After me, you need hop on over to Janet's Creative World Blog
