So I've been getting the Story Kits and Story Stamps from Ali Edwards and I have to say - I love them! I'm trying to use them as much as possible this year. Joe and I went over to my parents house for dinner the other night and it was so great to catch up. There's been a lot going on and I felt like I hadn't seen them in forever.
I used stamps, stickers, the plastic word "gather", chipboard pieces, and a 4x6 card from the Gatherings Story Kit.
I used a paper from Amy Tangerine's "Stitched" collection. I just found a pack of it at A.C. Moore this weekend. Yay!
And if you haven't considered subscribing to the Story Kit or Story Stamp, let me just give you a little testimony - do it!! I am amazed every month at the thought that's been put into these products. You have access to a video (I think it's always been 30+ minutes), a gallery, a forum, and more. You also get lots of examples about how to use the month's theme. I wouldn't have thought of most of the ways you could interpret the themes.
I love reading each and every comment! Be sure to keep up with me on Instagram, Pinterest, and
Love Ali Edwards stuff. I find that her products stand the test of time, ie. not some late fad but something you can use for years and years. This page is wonderful. I really like the use of the circles and that little yellow house is adorable!
ReplyDeleteYes, her stuff is timeless for sure! That house is from Freckled Fawn. It's so cute!
DeleteFantastic layout, Emily, love how the kit inspired you! I keep debating on starting a sub to the Story Kit…
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but subscribe - I'm glad I did!
DeleteSuch a happy page! The papers went well with your photo and the story kit elements.
ReplyDeleteYes, it worked out nice!
DeleteBeautiful layout!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kimberly!
DeleteFabulous layout! I still need to pull out my January kit... your layout is definitely motivation!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Erin! I definitely need to make some more pages from her kits.
DeleteGreat layout! Ditto what you said about Ali and her kits. Love her!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cyndi!
DeleteI really like your layout -- both the theme and the content. I'm challenging myself to work through my stash this year so no subscriptions for me. I'm glad you enjoy yours and appreciate the testimonial.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Fawn! Good luck to you on working through your stash - I should do the same!
