WeScrap has just released their new Kit of the Month called “Pretty on the Inside”
This kit is so perfect for spring! My favorite part of this kit is the Bazzill In Stitch’z Template! It is a group of paper piercing templates for you to use for hand stitching on your pages.
It is a super easy way to add flourishes to your pages.

Here is what I created with my kit:

What an amazing month!! I just found out that I won this beautiful Hero Arts stamp from the Silhouette blog!! Perfect timing with Valentines on the way. I will be sure to post some fun layouts and cards with this little guy!
What is even cooler is that it matches a Silhouette download!
I have a few ideas of how I can use both the stamp and the die cut on a page!! I will be stalking my mailbox now!
Simply Scrapping Crafts is looking for more DT members and if you are crafty and love challenges this is the place to show off your work! Hope to see you there.

Simply Scrapping is holding a DT Call! Be sure to check out their site!
One of the requirements for applying for the DT is to make a layout of the following sketch:

Here is my take on the sketch:

I love how my Silhouette can cut such small letters! It is so much nicer than finding letter stickers to match each layout. To get these tiny bits and pieces sticky I use Thermoweb Sticky Dot Adhesheet! I place them on the sheet, cover it with the protective sheet, run my brayer over it, then lift them up and they are sticky!

I love hidden journaling because I don’t like my handwriting! This little tag will be full of information about my little one’s first tooth (or teeth). Then I just tuck it back behind the photo!

Jack’s First Tooth: My Mind’s Eye: Patterned Paper, Rub-On and Tag, CTMH: Buttons, Twine, Ribbon and Cardstock, Silhouette SD
Be sure to check out WeScrap’s DT’s reveal of the January kit! This kit was so much fun to play with and I still have quite a bit leftover! I will post my new layouts over the next week.
