BEST FRIENDS FOR LIFEI’m working with the brand new January Hip Kit to help document my daughter and her bestest friend in the world. She is so in love with this dog and I wanted the colors to be as bright and vibrant as that love! So one of the first things I did was back this cut file. I started by backing every single letter. I quickly realized that was getting to be a bit much. So I started over and just backed each separate word. I then eyeballed where I wanted it on my page and painted white stripes on the purple background. After putting my title down I used some black acrylic, watered down as well as a shimmery purple color I got from my Hip Kit to splatter all over the place. I stuck down my photos which included this photo flip from Close To My Heart to add all the pics I needed. I finished my page with some little clusters of fun that were also in my Hip Kit.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post! I hope it encourages you to get crafty and make something fun!

Shaker ElementHello all! I am currently working on a mini album of a snow play trip we took in January. I wanted to put all kinds of different elements into it so I thought it would be a perfect time to add a shaker box. So first off I decided to use a snowflake cut file from The Cut Shoppe for this element and the first thing I did was cut some of the inside elements out to make the visible area bigger. Then I glued a piece of scrap page cover to the snowflake. I glued a bigger piece and once it was dry I then cut it down to just my shaker area. I then cut my foam dots in half to box it in.
So my snowflake is ready for my dodads! First I placed my snowflake on top of where I wanted it and took a mental note of where the shaker part would be. Then I placed a little pile of sequins and confetti where it will go.
I then pulled all those little backings off my foam dots and placed my snowflake where is supposed to go and viola, I had a beautiful little shaker snowflake! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, please let me know in the comments if there is something you would like to learn for scrapbooking!
