True Patriot Love - An Awesome Collab!

Recently I have been playing with a gorgeous kit called True Patriot Love. This is a gigantic collaboration that was contributed to by the four Canadian designers at Scraps N Pieces:  Marie H Designs, Mommy Made This, Queen Wild Scraps, and True North Scraps in honor of Canada Day July 1st.

Wait?  Are you saying you aren't Canadian, so why should you be interested?  Because the designers used colors appropriate for other nationalities to show their pride as well. They even included some stars to match the American flag. I love all the fun prints in this kit as well as the great ellies and embellishment.  I think you will too. You can find it in the store at Scraps-n-Pieces HERE

I made several layouts with this collection and am sharing a couple of them here for  your inspiration.



 You can also see some other layouts I did with this kit in the True North Gallery at SNP HERE  

I also made you a freebie.  Download it HERE  Enjoy!

SNP Blog train - Sun Kissed

Where does the time go...it seems like it was just last week that we were leaving on the last blog train and here the time has rolled around again already.  This month the Scraps n Pieces Blog Train theme has a soft sunny palette called Sun Kissed.

Here is a preview of all the participants.

And here is my portion. I made you a little kit. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I did making it for you.

You can download it HERE.

I even made a layout with my portion to inspire you.

Bits n Pieces Templates and a little blending experiment.

I have been playing again!  I had to try out these great new templates from the July Bits n Pieces collection by A Fish Design.  They are really fun and easy to work with as well.  You can find them in the Scraps n Pieces Store HERE.

 

I made a couple layouts.  This first one uses the templates with the SNP July Use It All kit from Crescent Moon Designs. I tried a blending technique from the tutorial that Wendy Tunison has on her blog.  I love how it turned out with the papers in this kit.

And on this one I used  the Parts And Pieces kit from A Fish Design.  I love how pretty this page is in it's simplicity. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them.
