Citrus Tree Studio September Reveal!

I was so honored to be chosen as a guest designer this month at Citrus Tree Studios!!  I just LOVE the kits there....they are packed with so many embellies!

This month's kit is called "Paisley Heights", and was just PERFECT for photos of Charlotte!

So of course I wanted to highlight the "paisleys" in this kit, so I fussy cut a whole bunch of them out for this page.  Then I cut out the same shapes again, and added the centers to each paisley with pop dots.



I did a lot of stitching on the outside of the circle, and I just love how the stitching and the paisleys make this page seem to move.





For this next page, I took a brayer and a green ink pad and I inked the negative side of an embossed piece of cardstock so that the embossed area would be white. 



I then used some of the glitter stickers for a frame around my photos and used the entire package of flowers!  :)





Lastly, I saw this idea in Scrapbooks etc. magazine to layer brown paper with different border punches, so that is what I did to make the "tree". 



The little blong birdie I added to some what patterned paper to make it stad out a bit more.




I am having so much fun over there this month!!  I will be posting my challenge on Sept. 10 with yet another layout that I did, so be sure to stop by and check it out!

Beautriful! Can you tell me what kind of Brayer you have..is it the really hard one, or the medium one???

Audrey Yeager said...

Kim I'm not sure that I really knew there was a difference, but I'd habe to say it is a medium one. Here's a link to the one I have: http://www.overstock.com/Crafts-Sewing/Inkssentials-Inky-Roller-Brayer/3275841/product.html
