3 Beautiful layouts - August Sparkle and Shine & July Wayfarer kits

Hi everyone!

I recently received my 'Sparkle and Shine' Scraps Of Darkness kit and I couldn't wait to get creating.

When I saw the Prima Paper Rose Quartz - Stone Quartz the idea for this layout came to me

This awesome photo was taken by my niece last year

 To Begin with I fussy cut one of the worlds out of the paper and layered it over the Grateful heart paper and the Rose Dreams paper.

I added Papermania Wild Rose Jumbo Crochet Trim from the elements add on.

I created a cluster using flowers from the main kit and floral add on and these really cool feathers from the elements add on.  I also double matted the photo and used foam dots for dimension

Here is a close up of those really pretty flowers.  I also added some Prima Rose Quartz Puffy Stickers from the main kit - they are really cute!

I finished off with a title using the 'LOVE' from the puffy stickers and some letter stickers from my stash

I am so excited to share this layout.

I normally do not scrapbook in pink - just not my color BUT these gorgeous papers and elements may have changed my mind!

For this layout I used some the awesome Simple Stories Beautiful  paper from the Sparkle and Shine kit.

I started by layering the  fabulous papers and added a border sticker from the main kit then lightly distressed the edges.  

I then painted the some chipboard from my stash with Art C Ultra Chalk Paint in Victorian Pink from a previous Scraps Of Darkness kit.  I added some Ranger Rose Quartz embossing powder (from a previous kit) and heat set it.  In the color add on is this gorgeous Jacquard Lumiere True Gold Acrylic Paint that I brushed on with my finger to keep with the lightly gold theme.

For the chipboard frame from my stash I embossed it with one of my favorite embossing powders - Stampendous aged black embossing enamel from a previous Scraps Of Darkness kit.

Check out all those stunning flowers from the  main kit and floral add on!

Here is another another layout I created using the Wayfarer kit!

I love creating beach layouts - probably because thats one of my favorite places to be! 

When I saw this piece of paper - Pacific Coast - from Blue Fern Studios in the kit - my mouth dropped!  It is gorgeous!  I really wanted to create a layout that did it justice!

I chose an older photo of Cody that matched so beautifully with the elements

I did some mixed media work with s stencil, sand medium and Lindys Stamp Gang mist and Brusho turquoise powder.  I sprayed some cheese cloth with the mists too, added some prills from previous kits and some Prima Art pebbles also from a previous kit and shells from my stash!

The Prima Resin Frame is beautiful!   To add to its beauty I misted it, added the brusho powder color, and prills!  The title piece I found in the Prima Traveler's Journal Ephemera & Stickers from the main kit...I wrinkled it and added some ink and the same brusho color.
