The kit that keeps on giving

These last few days, I have been playing with the December kit. I loved the kit as soon as I laid my eyes on it, and I have to tell you, that feeling just grew stronger and stronger when I got to work with it! I challenged myself to work only with kit products, both because I love challenges AND to show you just how much you can do with it. And this kit made it easy for me to live up to the challenge! Apart from inks, paints and stitching materials, I used nothing but kit products on my kreations! Here's what I made:


For this first LO, I wanted a simple design because I really wanted the pics to stand out strong. I used one of the chipboards as a mask, and the green Shimmer Spritz was the perfect colour for the look I was going for ... not too strong, with a delicate background to make the project prettier without overwhelming the pictures. Initially ,the rubon was just as an embellishment. But once it was on the page, I found it to be the perfect title as well! I love the christmas trees with the pearls, but what really gave this page the finished look I was looking for, was Keandra's awesome reindeer ... this really adds a wow-factor!

For my next project, I wanted to kreate a mini album, again using nothing but the kit. Now this was a double challenge for me, as I'm not used to making mini's and I really was out of my comfort zone ... However, again, the pages just seemed to build themselves. Kean's choice in papers coordinate perfectly, the embellishements are just gorgeous and perfect for any kind of project, and what's more, it's just FUN to work with!



You won't believe it, but I STILL have supplies left from the kit to make another project! So I'm off to play some more!
