You can find the August Hip Kits
on the Hip Kit Club website, and the cut files you can find under
the Cut Files Tab. At the time of writing
this description the August Cut Files hadn't been loaded onto the website, but
they are coming soon so watch out for those.
I cut the hexagon background from the dark navy cardstock from the August Cardstock Kit. I backfilled it using Pocket Life cards from the Pocket Life Kit and papers from the Main Kit. I wanted to use the Wisteria cardstock from the Cardstock kit as my background and added a little mixed media to it before sticking down my backed cut file. I used two inks from the August Color Kit. I've used Soft Lilac and Hydrangea Petals. I pressed the ink pads onto a piece of plastic packaging and added some water, I then pressed the colour onto my background to get a water colour effect. I then added splatters of white acrylic paint. I added my cut file and added lots of dots of the Midnight Blue Nuvo Crystal Drops that was in the August Kit, around the edge of the cut file.
I trimmed down my Wisteria background and added it to the navy and white striped paper from the Main kit, so that a small amount showed each side.
I added my photo and a title from the exclusive Awesome Life die cuts 'Good Vibes'. I added lots of chipboard words and some puffy ephemera. I then added some label stickers using words that were relevant to my photo. I finished off with some black machine stitching down the sides, my journaling and some enamel dots.
I love how this layout turned
out...so perfect for the many boys in my life! You can view the process video below.
Thanks so much for joining me today
Happy scrapping
