Shape up for Summer..."Pure Bliss" Classic Kit

Hello!  It's  Meridy here, with a 2 page layout to share with you today.  As a design team, we are 'Shaping up for Summer' by creating layouts with a repeating shape in them this week.  I'm working with the "Pure Bliss" Classic Kit today.  I choose to work with circles. 

I started my layout using patterned paper with a circle motif across the bottom of the layout.  After I added my photos and patterned paper across the top of my layout, I pulled in a circular journaling block and popped it up on pop dots, creating a little dimension on my layout.  

As I searched through the embellishments in this kit, I found plenty of other circle elements to add.  I started with the faux sequins, then a few buttons.  Next, I grabbed 2 of the printed wood veneers, flipped them over to the blank side, masked them off with washi tape and painted a portion of them.  After the paint dried, I removed the washi mask and had a totally different looking embellishment! 

I added a few of the Queen and Company pink glitter dots, to give the layout a little sparkle.  Finally, I added small dollops of Stickles from the kit to tie all of the circle embellishments together.  This "rounds" out my layout, and I feel that it is complete!

Thank you for joining me today, check back all week to see how the rest of the Design Team is 'Shaping up for Summer'!!!!

"Pure Bliss" Classic Kit: All in the Numbers

Hello Bloggers! Lynn here with my second layout using this month's GORGEOUS "Pure Bliss" Classic Kit. I'm continuing with this week's challenge ... All in the Numbers. Simply, include a number on your layout - easy right?! Come on and join us!! 

I used papers from Dear Lizzy "Happy Place" for my page. I love the fresh, summery tones of these papers and I found an instax photo that matched perfectly!! Here's my page.

I layered some papers under the doily and under the photo. (The doily is from my stash - I kinda have an obsession with them!) Here's a close up of the layering with the photo. 

How cute is the pineapple paperclip?!?! I clustered some embellishments by the lower right corner of the photo. 

Oh yah, the challenge - I added the year toward the bottom of my layout.

Included in the classic kit is a bottle of stickles. The color is Mint Green and I used it to add some sparkle to a few flower centers.

I loved making this page and it came together so easily with Noel's kits.

Thanks for stopping by and we'd love to have you join us in this week's challenge! I'll return next week with another page using this awesome kit! Have a great week!!
