Deja Vu

In October the Counterfeit Kit Challenge kit build inspiration piece for the month was the Shimelle Best of Both World kit from last month. I did create a kit from the BOBW project already! So I took a second look at a familiar inspiration piece. I took this project in a different direction and created a smaller kit with richer tones and a teen vibe.

Here is a comparison of the two kits.
Kit #1: A softer color palette with more whimsical icons.

And here is kit #2 I created from the same inspiration image this time around. This has a richer color palette with bold pops of black, a smattering of sparkle, and a teen vibe icons.

LOAD Guest Designer

Hello everyone. Thanks for stopping by. Today I have two things for you. I’ve created a layout process video that uses the day 20 prompt from the LOAD – LayOut A Day – challenge. To learn more about this challenge, visit Scraphappy.org/load.

As you’ll see in the video I created my own shaker elements for my layout. As I am self-learning some Adobe Illustrator skills I will be offering you files for free. And this shaker element is one of those! This is an svg cut file for electronic cutting machines. You can click here to directly download the zip file for that. You can also head over to my freebies section to download it from there and also check out a few other items I have available.

And so, enjoy the video and the cut file!

Re-Launch

Welcome (back?) to my blog. I am happy to say that after a couple of years hiatus I am back to blogging. Not only that but I’ve upped my game. I am now producing YouTube Videos! Please visit my channel over at Crafty Soup Video.

The new blog will feature my videos as well as a few freebies like sketches and SVG cut files.

I wanted to have everything spot on for this re-lauch, but life sometimes doesn’t work out that way. As I’ve moved service providers for the blog I’m having domain name issues. My tech guy (aka my husband) is helping to resolve those issues. Thanks for your understanding.

I’m go glad you are here. Now, on with the show!
