Everyday with Hip Kit Club

This layout was created for Hip Kit club using the fabulous October kit. Of course now that I've went to NYC with my oldest I will have lots of pics of our trip to scrap. I thought this was the perfect one to use first, it was taken in Central Park, it just makes me happy!


 I can never get enough of the CP chipboard frames, I love using them as mini canvas to create clusters of embellishments. Lots and lots of layers going on here. 


I really admire scrappers that can beautifully mix various alphas to create a lo, I just can't seem to make it work, so I do the next best thing, I use a focus word in my title and cut it using my Cameo. The "everyday" word was cut with white cardstock and I used the Tim Holtz gold stain to colour it, love how it turned out. 


Last but not least I created a simple card using the leftovers from this layout. Don't you just love the mix of teal pp and kraft cradstock?!
