Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create & Stamp

 

The timing of this kit could not have been more perfect - we got Katie a new car and her excitement needed documenting!

I just loved the Cosmo Cricket Stickers - and wanted to use as many as possible on this layout, what used to be called a 'Sticker Sneeze'! Dont be afraid to overload your layouts with stickers - adapting them by cutting them if needed!

The Cosmo Cricket Round-about paper just reminded me of distant planets so my using this as the background of my circle cut out I was able to create a space themed card.
The title and rocket are from the elements sheet.

I love this photo of Mia, it was taken at home on one of those impromptu portrait sessions, the look on her face is just adorable even though she is missing her front tooth! 

 

 

The American Crafts Puffy Flowers are just great, but the vibrant colours just did not ..... Read More

Hot Wheels

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create, Stamp, Hybrids & Bespoke Cards

 

These photos of Hannah taking her cousins for a spin in their new wheels has been on a ‘nearly finished but I don’t really like it’ LO for a long time but no amount of tweaking seemed to fix it. That was until I got my hands on June’s kit.

A combination of elements form the Cosmo Cricket Joy Ride Borders sheet together with the Hybrid Elements, Cosmo Cricket Joy Ride Cardstock Stickers and a couple of the Bespoke Design Cards plus a bit of customizing were perfect for these picture.

Sunset Travels

designed by Sheena Rowlands

 

 

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create, G2P & Hybrids

 

I love a nice sunset, but I love a sunset with palm trees more !! This was taken on a recent trip to Florida.

  I'm sure we all sometimes shy away from using unusual supplies but I still could not wait to try the Smooch Spritz, so I used the Cosmo Cricket alphabet as a mask & sprayed over them on to a rectangle of card. When dry I removed the letters and outlined the letters left behind. I must admit I'm really pleased with this effect.

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Greeting's Kit 

 

I have been fancying making a spinner card for ages and this little helicopter was perfect for doing just that! The helicopter is cut out and mounted onto two 1 penny coins on foam pads and set into a channel of PP , when tilted the helicopter spins from one side of the card to the other (you can google Spinner card for details ).

"Face This Way'

designed by Sam Ball

 

 

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create & Bespoke Design Cards

 

This layout was inspired by the neutrals and greens in this months kit, along with the photos of Nina and the bespoke card featuring a 'map'.

I used the same sized photo for all images and created a 'grid'. I hid the photo joins with strips of paper from the Crate Paper Brook Ripple.

Let's GoGo

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create & Hybrid

 

When GoGo travelled to CHA in Chicago 2008, we did laugh at quite how much luggage we had between us. One trolley was just not going to suffice!! We had our bags and cases piled up full of all the extra presents and scrapbooking goodies we bought, if you look very carefully you can just see Helen Miles's head peeping over the top of the mountain of luggage

Pilot

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create & Stamp

 

Harry was really excited to be invited to meet the pilot of our outbound plane from LGW and loved asking lots of questions about all the controls, buttons and instruments in the cockpit of this Boeing 747. The pilot and co pilot had lots of time for Harry and patiently answered all of his questions, even the ones about the ash cloud!

June's Stamp is ideal for creating frames to house smaller photos and teamed with the American Craft Purple Zing makes for vibrant and interesting focal points that frame photos a treat.

Male Greeting Card

designed by Sam Ball

 

 

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Greetings Kit

 

Having been inspired by a recent birthday card I received, which heavily featured cut-out areas, I decided to create a similar look using the all over vehicles paper, which gave me plenty of scope for cutting away areas to leave an almost lacy effect.

I marked out a small border on the paper and cut away, and then gutted the front of the card, leaving enough to stick ..... Read More

Driving School

Made Using 'Are We Nearly There Yet!' June Kit Create

 

This kit immediately made me think of this photo of my son on the Driving School ride at Alton Towers.
So many elements relating to cars, and the bright zingy colours, made them a perfect match.
