CM Sketch and a goodbye

I leave you with my last project for C'est Magnifique kits.  I have enjoyed being on the Design Team but am planning on starting full-time work soon and with 3 kids added to the mix, well... there just aren't enough hours in a day anymore.

Here is a layout I created using the October "Sweet Treats" kit. I used items from the main kit and the flower add-on for this layout. I even used a few pieces of Prima packaging from the flowers as layers around my image too!


This is the fantastic sketch for this month.

C'est Magnifique October kit projects

Sadly this will be my final full reveal using C'est Magnifique kits.  The "Sweet Treats" October kit features some gorgeous Maja Designs papers - the coffee in the arbour collection.

Up first is layout of my dad and the start of his family (now has 2 more siblings) when he immigrated to Canada from Portugal. Everything on this layout is from the main kit and flower add-on except for a few doilies from my stash.  I pulled out some old creative memories tools to create the scallop circle design.

This is a display layout I created. Everything on this layout is from the main kit and flower add-on except for the doily and some seam binding from my stash.  The seam binding was tinted using the ink the kit and I also stamped on the doily with that very pretty pink ink.

A unisex birthday card to add to my stash when an unexpected event occurs. Everything on this card is from the main kit and flower add-on.

A girly gift box (kirigami folding) to add to my stash when an unexpected event occurs. Everything on this card is from the main kit and flower add-on except the seam binding... it was tinted using the pink ink in the kit.

A peek at the main kit this month...

The flower add-on I used...

I will be back with one final share in a few days, using the kit sketch so stay tuned!
