April 2010 kit

Our April kit features Artisan elements from Pink Paislee, patterned paper from Kaiser, cardstock from Coordinations, and ribbon. Artisan elements can be painted, inked, colored with virtually any substance of your choice (or keep it plain of you wish!)

Cur 1/4” of one top and one side edge of the script paper. Adhere to the brown cardstock. Cut a mat approx. 8” x 10” from the cream color cardstock. Also create a mat from the stripe paper approx. 6” x 8” Adhere both to the layout as shown. Mat 3 of the 4 pictures with the blue and the fourth picture with the cream cardstock. Create a title fro the blue cardstock. I used one of the artisan elements frames, punching out the center and using it to write the 73 with a Copic marker. I also used the marker to outline the edge. I used a shimmering watercolor in both an brown and a gold sheen (I really think paints would have been much better here but I did this layout on the road.) I used the same color to color the frame itself. I used a small piece of one of the patterned papers to journal with a blue pen. Stick the frame around the journaling and adhere all to the layout. These would make a great decorative element ina craft that would be showcased around the house!
