Birds of a Feather September Kit

I had a lot of fun playing with the September kit from Birds of a Feather Kit Club.  You can check it out here!





First up is a simple card - I really love this color combo!!

One of my favorite things about the glitter paste that comes with the September kit is not only that it adds the lovely sparkly glitter without needing additional adhesive but that it also is a bonding agent for the embellishments that I am using the glitter paste on.  Love items that can do double duty! :)

This layout is a "Happy Memory"  these photos are from the adventure park Selvatica in Cancun.  We had an amazing time!  I used the glitter paste from the kit to make a border edge on the upper right side, however, I was distracted and left my stencil on too long and the paste dried (oops :) ) So I filled in some of the parts where the paper tore with more glitter paste and finished my layout.

This layout is a photo of our dog, Oswald, on a walk with me the other night - he loved being out in all of the new sites and smells :)  It's had to tell in the scan, but I used the glitter paste on the wood piece - I painted some on both sides of the wood piece so it would act as an adhesive on the bottom side.

This layout is a photo of my son being goofy by wearing three hats - the gold phrase "stay gold" was perfect here for him to always keep his innocence.   I trimmed the layout in gold and used the gold glitter paste on a wood piece to continue the hints of gold.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
