This may be my new favorite layout in the history of ever. It started with papers from SC roller rink but nothing else but a few brads and enamel dots came from the kit.
I used a new Prima mask and several SC and HS mists to color the background. I then used stamps, flait, pearls, brads, glitz jewels, enamel dots, and beads from Queen&Co (seriously old stash item) to decorate some of the circles. The stamps are Mama Elephant, Cocoa Daisy and SC.

Class pic and SC Elmwood Park
Earlier this month, I went on a weekend retreat with 15 or 16 other scrapbookers. I only got 11 layouts done over the 2.5 days but I really like all of them. Everything on this LO was from the SC Elmwood Park kit again except the SC veneers and the background. I made it a couple weeks ago after watching some videos from Wilna Furstenberg's Art Class at 2peas. I backed some stars in the new Prima star stencil with washi tape before misting the background paper. I then used various stamps in the unmisted spots and traced around the perimeter of the stars with a pen

Original - and Authentique
This is an older layout and done from my stash. Uses Authentique paper and stickers, MME card, MR pins, WRMK grommets, and brads that I think were DejaViews???

Silly and Sweet - SC Elmwood Park
Pics are my kid dancing and playing with silly bands in our driveway complete with mismatched pajamas.
I used the SC Elmwood Park kit and add-ons (July 2012) which was my first. The color in the photo is off on the second one but thought I'd post both. The first was the layout when I originally completed it. The second is the result of my tinkering when I decided it just wasn't done. The die-cuts were bought in the SC shop and were leftover stock from their June 2012 kits. Everything else was from the kits

Dueling Duo and SC Planetarium
I think these photos mostly speak for themselves - 2 boys + 2 light sabres = dueling fun!
Stamps are from the North Star add-on set again. Stamping with gold HS color shine is problematic at best :P Veneers are Freckled Fawn from my stash as is the FP red alpha

Love You to the Stars and Back - SC Planetarium
My youngest is a ham for the camera so it loves him. This is just a cute shot of him goofing a few years ago.
I used the SC Planetarium (May) kit. The only add-on I bought was the North Star card kit add-on cause I adored the stamp set (and the papers). The "I love you" is from that set. The rest is my handwriting. Everything is from the kit except the mist and those little 3D circle stickers which are Heidi Grace (I think- definitely Colorbok)

Friends and SC Neverland
I went to Archivers a month or so ago and someone was getting an oh-so-early start on Christmas cards! This frame was the elftovers of santa's collar on her round cards. So, I backed the openings with soem of my fav papers from the Neverland kit and add-ons (of which I have all because it was my favorite kit set ever)All of the embellies are from the kits. The letters are stamped with the Navy Pier kit alpha set. I used HS color shine in gold lame and teal and used JB inks to color the veneer banners.

You Can Never Have Too Much Happy - SC Spencer
More Spencer kit in action! Papers are EP and Glitz as well as scraps of an SC exclusive. I used the PL stamp set and BG clips, frames and stickers. I cut the banner in the lower right and popped it up off the background.
My youngest always relishes Daddy's undivided attention - esp since he always has competition :P

Twisting Hair and SC Spencer kit
Here is another layout made with the SC Spencer kit. I added SC mist and MME washi plus the polaroid frames are cut from a MME paper. The picture is of my 2 kids playing with and twisting their hair which seems to be a genetic trait in my mom's family

Mini Mohawk - SC Spencer kit
I've been making a concerted effort to use my Studio Calico kits lately- especially since they have been kind of piling up. I really liked this kit and found it very usable - all the papers on this page except the orange were SC exclusives . The only non-kit items were the Mr Huey spray, HS mask, SC orange letters, and bling. The picture is my kid mugging for the camera after I sued about half a bottle of gel to get his hair to stick up in a mohawk :P

Studio Calico Neverland and Dino Models
My sons received dinosaur "fossils" in clay that they got to dig out archeaologist style. Afetr we put them together, they thought it would be great fun to pose them in all sorts of silly manners. I think they made me take about 40 pics before I called it quits *LOL*
I used the Hook and Lost Boy add-ons from SC's March kits for this LO.
SC flair, Mr Hueys and cards; EP paper and cards; MME stickers; AC Thickers

Studio Calico Neverland and Good friends
I absolutely love the SC March kits but have not used them much yet. Trying to remedy that lately :P
Anyway, I have a group of 3 girlfriends from college I have been friends with for 15+ years and plan to grow old still goofing off with them. We don't get together much cause we're not all local anymore but this is 2 of them from a girls' night out a couple months ago.
Crate paper and sticker; BG vellum tape, letters and envelope; MME enamel dots and word stickers, AC Thickers and rub-ons (Amy Tan); SC papers and cards as well as Tim Holtz markers (colored in the rub-ons and a little of the cloud)

Scraptastic Kit Club - July kit layout
I got my first kit from Scraptastic last month. August turned out to not be colors I loved (so I skipped - love that I have that option) BUT, I thought July kits were gorgeous and I am loving the look of September's too!
Anyway, this LO includes FP and EP PP , EP stickers, with OA washi Q&Co candy, and SC veneers as well as Ormolu for ST flair and the ST PL cards
Pics are from when my then-3-y.o manged to put a gash in his skull and they wrapped a bandage around his head to hold on the numbing gel before stapling his head :P
