~A Magical Kind of Love~



The March Kit features the Once Upon a Springtime collection from Graphic 45, along with papers from the Basic Grey Curio collection...
There was something about this kit...All the pretty florals, soft colours, sweet designs of fairies and spring things...Made me feel a kind of magic...Which inspired my title for this page.
It's a layout of my sweet MIL and my darling little niece. I took this pic last fall when we did a family portrait and I just adore how it turned out.
I wanted to scrap it and give it a really 'girlie' look...The papers, embellies and all the INCREDIBLY beautiful bits in this kit worked perfectly!



Here are some close-ups. I used white liquid pearls to cover the dark green letters... I always love a pop of white in everything I create...



Here's a beautiful Prima flower...speckled with sweet glitter...so magical and beautiful...



The beautiful Graphic 45 papers lend themselves to an endless amount of possibilities...I loved cutting, pasting, stenciling and layering these gorgeous prints...



I added in some stamped images on white paper to add a bit of white throughout the page...Along with tons of fussy-cut flowers, fairies and butterflies too!


~Hi~



Here's my second creation with the kit...I loved the colour scheme of the first page, so I thought I would create a card with the same tones...



All the stunning bits on this card are from the kit...I only added a teeny bit of seam binding, a stamped image and some liquid pearls...



Here's another close-up of the beautiful Prima flower and pearl flourish, as well as the gorgeous details of the G45 paper...

~Hello~



Okay so you all know I love making cards...I know it's no surprise...And most of my cards look a lot a like...But, I really found myself stepping away from my comfort zone with this one...Okay, okay...I know I used my pearls and pretty punches...But I wanted to create something that was less girlie and more grungy, mystical and colorful...I might have not achieved exactly what I was after...But I still like the way it turned out!



Close-up of the sweet little fairy and Maya Road Chipboard butterfly from the kit...



I used another Prima flower (included in the kit) and added a stamped image from my stash...I used a My Mind's Eye stamp set for the banner and a sentiment from a Hero Arts stamp set.


~So Loved~



Last but not least, I used LG's gorgeous March sketch to create this layout...You can find the sketch at our Scrap That! community site. If you would like to win more fabulous prizes, be sure to check back for all the details to follow about our upcoming sketch contest in the month of March!



Close up of the beautiful layers of patterns and colours...



And a few little liquid pearls...

Hope you've enjoyed the reveal!

To continue on with the hop, head on over to visit the incredibly talented, wonderfully sweet (and funny!)

Happy Hopping!

Both your layouts and your cards are a total delight to look at. But I especially love the 'So loved' one.
