More from my kit

The decorating is nearly done! So this past weekend I actually got some time to go and play in my craft room - otherwise known as the conservatory! I decided to complete two layouts using the rest of my Wear Crafts kit. There were instructions for two more layouts, but I decided to go my own way and to add a bit more to the bits that were left. In that way, not only did I completely use up the kit I had ordered, but also managed to clear some papers and embellies from my stash!

This is the first layout. I did pull out the photo first and then create the page this time. I am slowly working my way through 2012's photos and this one was taken when we went to stay with my in-laws in Cornwall just before Penny's 21st birthday. It is a sad situation that I don't actually have many photos of Ben and Penny with their paternal grandparents - there is a reason behind this, but let's just say that certain family members down there create a fuss when the camera comes out so it saves arguments if the camera stays in the bag. However, this time we went out to a restaurant and the complainer was not with us so out came the camera! It was a shame that Ben wasn't with us, but I still managed to get some nice photos and this is one of them!

I did some more fussy cutting to get the butterflies and the flowers were from a Basic Grey Plumeria sticker sheet. The purple papers were in my stash and the washi tape came from Paperchase.

This is a close up of the journalling for you, so you don't have to strain your eyes trying to read it!

And a close up of some of the embellishments.

My last layout from the kit didn't have too much added to it - only some washi tape, gems and the lettering. Again I did some fussy cutting - butterflies, birds and flowers. This photo was taken when we had the family over to celebrate Penny's 21st birthday.

I am now looking forward to receiving my next kit from Wear Crafts!
