Live Life in Full Bloom | The Cut Shoppe

The March Cocoa Daisy kit included some beautiful pieces from Crate Paper which I adore.  One of my favorite pieces was the butterfly paper and I had this vision of a page filled with butterflies, so I began to fussy cut...  Well I got 2 done and thought this is not going to happen!  As much as I love to fussy cut, I just didn't have the time to accomplish it.  So a stop at JoAnns made me the proud new owner of a PixScan mat for my Silhouette.  Wow, instantly I had all the pretty butterflies cut out and other than tracing the images I had nothing else to do; I am sold!

With a page full of butterflies, this cut file was the perfect title for documenting these gorgeous pictures taken by friend Jenna!

Tuck in a little cloud here and there, plus my other favorite, doilies!

Dreams are for Chasing | Cocoa Daisy

Created with the March Cocoa Daisy kits.  

I have just about used up all the word paper included in the kit, it is totally my favorite piece!  

Friends | Cocoa Daisy

This layout was totally inspired by the new Shimelle paper included in the March Cocoa Daisy kit.  All those lovely words just begging to be cut out!  The frame paper from Crate Paper also got a touch of my knife <3 .="" p="">

Live Dream | Cocoa Daisy

Today I am sharing the brand new, March kits from Cocoa Daisy!  I have so wanted a chance to play with the fern/flower paper from Maggie Holmes, how gorgeous are those flowers and leafy pieces???  

I focused on some of the great cut files included with the purchase of this kit, and the printables also are great and such fun colors!

Best Day Ever - Hip Kit Club with Crate Paper

I created this layout for Hip Kit Club using the December kits with Crate Paper, Shine.

If you remember from my last layout I was having so much fun with the Shimmerz paints, well in this layout I used them to splatter, paint the stars, and the wood veneer (which I think I rather plain).  

Shine Bright - Hip Kit Club with Crate Paper and a Process video

I created this layout with the December Hip Kit Club kits full of the amazing Shine collection from Maggie Holmes.  But the really stand out part of these kits are the Shimmerz paints that are included in the Color add-on, wow, do I ever love these paints and will definitely need more of them!

Here's a process video to see how I created this layout!
