Whew! Can you believe that January is gone, and February is already here . . . and, it is 3 Kits 3 Ways Wednesday once again! Merrilee and I are so hoping that you will join Steph, Maureen & Kirsty from the Creative Team and have some fun with this weeks kits.
I have plucked these three kits from the Designer Digitals Store for today’s challenge. Two are sort of new & one is sort of old! I think you will like them all.
For the Love of Polka: Fall Paper Pack - Ali Edwards
Lucky Gardner Kit - Katie Pertiet
Stitched by Anna (cream) No. 03 - Anna Aspnes
And, here are the totally fabulous layouts from “the girls”:
Kirsty’s { Kirsty85 } page is such a delight. I love it because she used this adorable photograph of her son with his dog and because Kirsty used the three kits along with seven other DD products while still maintaining such lovely simplicity. Don’t you just love the softness of this photo?
Kirsty has used the following extras for her page: Fall + Halloween Hand Drawn Brushes, Letter Box Overlays, Rounded Word Strips, Stitching Holes Brushes-n-Stamps, Touch Up Paint Brushes-n-Stamps, Grassy Edgers Brushes-n-Stamps and Painted Edge Overlays No. 01.
I just want to smile over the sentiment that comes forth from Maureen’s {Mozer} precious layout. The photograph is one that will make Mo’s family happy for many years . . . it is a treasure. I do so love the clean lines and the perfect choice of Anna’s Word Art.
Here are the additional kits that Mo used for her page: Love Word Art No. 03, Worn Hearts and Queen of Hearts Solids.
Now, just look at this little guy about to pounce out of this happy page from Steph! I am so happy that the challenge kits were the prefect colors for this pup . . . and, I’m just in love with what Steph has come up with to combine them with her darling photograph of their new and mischievous puppy.
Steph added these three products from the DD store: Shaped Notebook Journalers, Absolutely Acrylic Hearts and Fasten Its!
I hope that you will enjoy working with these three Designer Digitals products just as much as Steph, Mo & Kirsty did. Remember that in creating a layout for the challenge, you may use the 3 kits plus any other DD products on your layout. Post your layout in the 3 Kits 3 Ways Gallery at Designer Digitals. I have a double page layout to post in the gallery too, and Merrilee & I will love to see your pages there too!
For our third challenge, we’ll be looking ahead to tomorrow’s Daily Dose calendar page (February 3) and the adorable layout by Kim Weiss. With so many unique digital alphabet brushes available you are sure to find one to compliment any layout. So whether fun, funky, grungy or elegant, we want to see you use a brush alpha on your next layout.

We’re now 4 weeks in to 10 Weeks 2 Treasure round 3! How are you doing? There’s still plenty of time to get started if you haven’t joined in yet! We’re working on a full, 20-page album so at the end of our Ten weeks we’ll have a completed photobook!
Working with the Hugs & Kisses Layered Template No. 4 this week.
It’s a great base to get your page started. And you can add to it, move things around and make it your own so easily! I used a light pink paper and the filmstrip frames as a clipping mask to lighten my pages and give them a softer look!
And I used the Scallop Strip Masks to clip some patterned papers to!
I’ll be looking forward to seeing your books coming along! Be sure to post in the Ten Weeks to Treasure Gallery so I don’t miss them!
