Here I used the new Instant Photo I die and cut it three times for the focal point of my layout. You can use these to hold photos, journaling or even just pretty embellishments...I used one of each here!
On watercolor paper, I painted a gray background. I really wanted the little tabs and the color to be the focal point, so I chose a neutral background. I used the new Wet Paint II stamp set to stamp each Instant Photo 1 die cut card on the bottom with "smile, celebrate and friends", with a photo of my daughter and friends from NY. We had a going away party for her before we moved. We had such a sweet group of girls who were all in the same Kindergarten, first and second grade classes together and all cheered in flag football in the summer together too, so they were inseparable!
See those little paper clips? Those are the new Clip Tips stamps and Memory Clips dies! LOVE these!! What a fun way to dress up a journaling card or clip onto a photo. There are almost 50 little sayings in this stamp set. So much fun! Here are just a few. 
You can also layer the Clip Tips like I did here with these 3 shapes...
I have a lot of different fonts going on here, but I thought since the color scheme was cohesive, it would tie all of the fun word play together. The stamped butterflies and "enjoy" were made with the Monthly Moments: May stamp set. I first dipped the stamp in Melon Berry and then the top of the butterfly in Pure Poppy before stamping.

Next, I used another of the journaling cards from the Monthly Moments: May kit and the stamps on this page. I used the word "May" as the beginning of my journaling. Since Mother's Day was just here, I was inspired to do a page of my girls and I. The journaling says, "May you always know love and safety and the security of our family. I love you both so much and love being your mom. Today is Mother's Day 2014, and I couldn't imagine my life any other way than with you! Love, Mom"
As you can see, I used the Circle Scribbles dies again and created a border on top. I watercolored underneath them to add a tiny bit of color.

Beautiful girls! (And mommy too!) Love the clips and how you layered them. Those circle scribbles look like bouquets of fun! Love all your beautiful sample today!
Oh, these are all so fabulous, Danielle! I especially love how you used those Scribbled Circle dies!
It is beautiful. Loved the use of the elements. Liked the scribbled circle dies.
Such pretty layouts Danielle! Love how you used the scribbled circles dies (you're right, they DO look like flowers) along with those new butterfly dies (can't wait to see what you create with them on group post day).
Can you share a picture or tell us the brand of watercolor paints that you are using? I would love to hunt for them at M's (if that is where you picked them up).
Linda
WOW!!! Theses layouts are such beautiful works of art. Thanks for sharing with us. Love the journaling cards also.
Danielle, I love the way you watercolour, and it isn't even my favourite technique! Don't tell the others, but you are the best at it. These layouts are achingly beautiful. They take my breath away.
Wow! Such creative and absolutely GORGEOUS pages! I love the circle scribbles dies! They look like giant flowers! Such wonderful memories and pictures!

Love the colours Danielle!
Danielle, this is all so AWESOME (and I don't even scrapbook anymore)! But everything you've shown here makes me SMILE! Love the new scribble circle die cuts and how you've incorporated them into your layouts. I'd love to see some cards made from the Monthly Moments products, I think PTI would sell double the amount of these if they showed how they could be used for cards :)
All so gorgeous!
Thank you! Linda, I'm using the watercolors by Reeves from Michael's. It's a set of 18 colors of paints in tubes. I used a 40% off coupon and got it for around $6 I think! Such pretty colors in this set, different than the usual boring red, yellow, blue and green. :) I'll put a pic of the package in the forum too.
Danielle
What gorgeous layouts! You incorporate the dies so seamlessly, I am loving the circle scribbles and clips!
Love love love everything, like really love, hope I get to those clips before they sell out and how you have used those scribble dies. I am in awe.
Fabulousness!! I was looking at your first layout and thinking to myself how great the scribble dies would be as flowers because that's what they look like...then I kept reading! ;) You're such a wonderful designer - I always love your Monthly Moments posts :)
I love the sentiment with the picture of the smile that was on the first project shown. ALL of the projects are so well done incorporating several May sets, along with the layouts and colors. Everything is well done.
Such beautiful projects! I wasn't so sure about the Clips and the circle scribble dies but you have me rethinking them quite a bit!
I love how you used the circle scribbles and the instant photo die with the memory clips and clip tips. You really showed the versatility of these elements.
Danielle, your layouts are beautiful as is your family! Your watercoloring adds just the perfect touch. Love the Clips and the Circle Scribbles for embellishing. Super job once again!
I always race to see how you use the Monthly Moment kits. I just adore your layouts and everything about how you scrapbook. The watercolor on all the pages is so fun.
Wow! Absolutely stunning :0
Such beautiful layouts Danielle, all gorgeous! luv them all! Now I really want to get started again on PL!
