using lots of stickers and rub-ons

Hey there!

It's my turn to share another Balboa project today: 

I started out with this grey background from Pink Paislee- one of my favorite papers from the kit ♥ I added some mist to the background and then cut two journaling spots to use to ground my picture. 

I wanted to use these Hazel and Ruby conversation bubbles in a fun way so I created this collage near my photo. I added lots and lots of word stickers and Dear Lizzy rub-ons as well as some of the Chic Tags from the kit. 

I used my Uniball Signo white gel pen for my journaling to add to the chalkboard look. I also added some small doodles and little hearts on my page with the same pen. This pen is my favorite! You can get one from the Noel Mignon store here.

What are you creating with the Balboa kit?

Have a good day!

Silhouette Frame

Hello and Happy Tuesday!! Today I have a cute and simple home decor piece to share with you using the "Balboa" kit.

I have been putting pieces together, both homemade and store bought, for my oldest daughter's room. We are going to do a mini gallery wall, with a collage of fun, and inspiration pieces. I loved the bright colors and chalkboard elements in the "Balboa" kit, and knew that it would go along perfectly with her room decor.

I knew I wanted to use this sticker from the Hazel and Ruby set the minute I saw it, I thought it would be perfect to pair with a simple silhouette.

I layered it with some a label sticker from Chic Tags, and one of the speech bubbles from the Hazel and Ruby set. Made for a fun little bit of interest, and helped it to stand out more against the bold pink background.
It still needed a little something else, so layering one of the acetate flowers and wood buttons, I made a "bow" for the ponytail. Then using the glitter glue, included in our kit, I thickly applied it at an angle to the ponytail, this gave it texture, and sparkle!

All put together, this is going to make for a great addition to her collage...and she loves it, so that's always a plus! :)
