getting sneaky...

Just loading some sneak peeks to the next Jenni Bowlin kits! You can see more tomorrow in the Mercantile gallery! This month has lots of Crate Restoration - OMG I loved working with this line - also, as always, some exclusive Jenni Bowlin papers, journaling spots and stickers that won't be available anywhere else - only in this kit.

(Back of the Sweet little thing card - I wrapped the little doily around and adhered on the back as well.)
Here I cut a flower out of one of the the Crate papers and layered it with a ribbon and a Crate sticker! I popped the whole thing up with pop dots to show off the little heart. The textbook paper is from one of the older kits and floss/brad are from my stash.

I thought it would be fun to create a little string of hearts to tuck inside the card! You could even write little notes on each of the hearts! Or add pictures! :) I just punched a bunch of hearts and then ran them one by one through the sewing machine. These would be fun added to a layout as a banner also!

On the Pretty in Pink page, I cut the journaling die cut in half and placed it to draw your eye down the page. The little flowers were made just by punching a circle, then cutting it into a swirl, and wrapping it to form a flower. My good friend, Davinie, came up with the idea...isn't she creative?

Now, I promise you that the kit and add-on kits are not ALL girly!! I made 2 fall layouts that I will share with you tomorrow as well! Their are some GOR-geous papers in the kit perfect for fall too, along with fall bingo cards and such! ;)
