Aaahh February - the month of love.
I could tell there was going to be a lot of soppy, lovey, mushy, romantic layouts coming out of the Kreatorville February kit straight away. For a start, all I had to do was look at the title and embellishment choices.....
I had a heck of a time trying to decide between the cupid, the love birds and the dove! And the title choices were just as hard. I could easily see myself making a layout with every single one of these :-)
And the papers were just as gorgeous too.
I knew the first thing I would do would be to use my handmade Title and Embellishment. So I quickly got to work and whipped out this:
These were pictures of Munchy meeting Moodle for the first time. Yes, they shook hands!! It's a little hard to see, but can you tell I blinged up my brown cardstock by spraying it with Irridescent Gold Glimmermist? It seemed appropriate! And how much did I love that Sassafras sunbeam paper.... the answer is.... a LOT! In fact, I loved it so much I couldn't waste any of it behind my photos, so I cut out that sqaure, and used it on another layout!
I can't show you the whole layout yet though because it's for an upcoming Guest DT spot (it's not too far away - come back in about a week or so and it should be up!)
And then I used my lovely dove on this layout. The journaling is a quote from The Man when he said "I see the Drool Angel has blessed our child again". Hhhhmmmm...... I guess it's just one of those things - both our daughters were dribblers! So even though this wasn't a 'romantic' layout, the dove still seemed appropriate with the whole angel vibe of the page.
And can I tell you something else that I love about the Kreatorville kits? See those red glitter mini-alphas from Making Memories that I've used on the two layouts above? Never in a million years would I have bought them for myself.... but you know what? I ended up loving them! What I think is great about these kits is that 3/4 of the contents I instantly feel a very close affinity for and know straight away what I'm going to do with it, and the other 1/4 which initially makes me go "ummmmm......" eventually makes me go "ahh hah!" I love that it broadens my horizons, makes me reach beyond my own limitations, extends my creativity.
:-)
And lastly today, this funny layout that is a bit of a mixture of the December kit as well as the February kit. But I love that I was able to recycle the packaging from the Prima bird (in December's kit) and the Jenni Bowlin buttons (from this kit) and use them as stand-alone embellishments! Bonus :-)
Ok.
Time for some exciting news for you all.
I sent Keandra a little email asking about whether the past kits were available, and whether they might be available at a special price (can't hurt to ask!) so guess what she did?
She's offering the November, December, January and February kits for 50% off. Now she hasn't given an exact price but I'm pretty sure that's going to be US$18.75 each. And if you're worried about postage (especially if you don't live in the States) then imagine this..... she can fit all 4 of these kits in one package if you want!!! WHAT A DEAL!
All you need to do is head over to the Kreatorville blog to remind yourself of all the goodies in each kit (or just back-track through my posts over the last couple of days) and then once you've decided on which kits you want, drop Keandra an email on: keandra@kreatorvillekraft.com
and she'll hook you up. Don't forget to mention my name when you order :-)
Leave your comments today to go in the draw for the fabulous prize.
And stay tuned for tomorrows kit.
My favorite from this group of LOs is the one about your baby at 14 weeks. I love the journaling and the blue flowers and beautiful bow and ribbon!
ReplyDeleteYour talent never ceases to amaze me!! These are all so beautiful! And I love that you cut that pretty paper out from under the pics! It always seems like such a waste to have so much covered up & also adds so much bulk! I thought I was the only one that did that! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI think Keandra's deal is fantastic! Nice negotiating! :)
Fantastic LO's again Natalie and love the little sneak - can't wait to see!!!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteYour making it really difficult to chose a kit! You make them all look soooo yummy! Looking forward to the full reveal on that nestled I just love how you bannered the word!
ReplyDeleteOmigosh, these are all so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI'd go with Kelly. I really really loved the 14 weeks layout. Sweet pretty and with a touch of class! :) Can't wait to see the "Nestled" LO, what I can see here looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your posts and what you have to share, but this time, these have struck a real cord with me. I love drool angel one for the fact that it is CAS but still YOU! I love that you've incorporated the daddy aspect into it, and the colors. Love the red of the paper and the red of the sparkly stickers. Love how they aren't so over the top.
