Cards made using the February 2018 Fully Loaded Kit

Hi Bev here today with cards made using the Creative Escape Papercrafting February 2018 Fully Loaded Kit. It was a great mix and match of fabulous soft elegant and some dark smoky combos that are perfect together. Add the amazing fun accents, stamps and dies. I am sharing 5 very different but perfect cards .

View all the photos of the cards but for more details take time to view the VIDEO .

The colours, prints and accents are perfect together with the added pop of cardstock die cuts.

Matting for pop of colour behind and soft elegant prints is awesome.

Using a great print and die cutting with a cardstock base is simple but elegant with the butterfly and tied ribbon and a cool stamped sentiment.

Darker colours with a pop of colour in the main central element... and using some cardstock die cut images are a perfect touch. Soften it with the cream ribbon and bow.

Amazing Layouts can be made using the Card Kits too

HI it's Bev here today. So I have been playing with the  Creative Escape Papercrafting February Fully Loaded Kit.... made specifically for cards.... but thought I'd share some ways to use these kits to also make some layouts. 

The first page is my eldest Grand Daughters and myself spending a day together.

The next page is photos from the McKee Botanical Gardens in Vero Beach, Florida.

Both these page started with the small card papers but they were reworked onto a 12x12 layout base  and used lots of paper accents, the stamp set and the dies from the card kit. 

Both turned out amazing and I love them.
