THANK YOU again! I was really honored to work with this beautiful kit!!
Everything in the layout and cards are from the kit except a heart gem.

Tip: When the letters are white, outline them with a black pen. When you have a very busy paper, use it to create a frame!

Exciting news!

After a few weeks of research, a couple of days of asking nosy questions on Facebook to you my lovely customers, friends and NZ scrappers in general – I am excited to announce that Crazy Monday kits will soon be starting monthly Project Life kits! More details about cost and timing will come as soon as I know.

I CAN tell you that I will start in a very small scale, so if you want to you are welcome to register you interest with me now on crazymondaykits@gmail.com.

I understand that people want to know cost and other details before committing to anything at all, but a little email to me letting me know you are interested, or want to know more as soon as I can tell you will not cost you anything, and you might get ahead in line.

I am extremely exited about this, and hope you are too!

 

Last share from Vicky

You’ll soon be able to see sneaks of of June kit, but before then a last share from Vicky Varvadouka.

I feel so lucky to have had Vicky showcasing the May kit – thank you so much for all your inspiration Vicky!

 

My-ride

 

 
I have ripped the papers again to create stripes/columns. I have painted the title letters with distress ink and stickles. I stamped and heat embossed the small tag using distress embossing powder “broken China”. The small yellow stripes that are used as a subtitle were cut out from a paper in the kit!

Sizzix dies

Remember

Today I’m sharing one of my LO’s from the May kit “Live, Laugh, Love Colour”. I used the word “Remember” from one of the Dear Lizzy papers as my title. Another little tip is what I did with the Webster’s Pages “candy dots”- I cut one of them in half and used the little sequins separately on the page. Quite like the effect! I’ve also used a silhouette cut out, and a resin heart from a previous kit on the page.

Exciting inspiration from Vicky!

“Today” (sketch by Angela Star)
 
I have used 2 different papers as my base. I used a stencil and texture paste to make the circles. I have traced them around with a black colourpencil to define them and I did the same thing to the title too with a pen! I sprayed a lot of mist in one spot, using the kit’s yellow mist, and then upheld the paper to create the spill/blot.

The word “together” is cut out on my cameo, it works perfectly with the Jillibean Soup words!

I outlined the letters in my title, and used the mist from the add on to colour the no 2. Love the result!

More inspiration from Vicky Varvadouka

As all the kits get sent today, Vicky is giving you  more inspiration for you to save up. Your kit will be with you SOON, so that you can play as well. Enjoy!

” Hello you” (sketch by Angela Star)
I have ripped the paper apart to create 3 stripes/columns. To make the little white circles, I dabbed a mist cap into white acrylic paint and “stamped” onto the paper.

Hello-you
