HKMC's Jan 2015 DT layout

Happy New Year everyone!
2014 has been a good year for us, healthy, happy and progress! My young daughter is getting stronger, my older son loves dinosaurs, we travels and we run! We joined the first Color Run in Hong Kong in Dec and we enjoy it a lot! With the new year quickly upon us, there is no more perfect time than right now to get a fresh starts. I will continue to do my favourite scrapbook and add running into my lifestyle!

So, my first scrapbooking page in the new year will be a combination of Colorrun and scrapbook!

  The Happy Color Runners


Papers are from Heidi Swapp's new collection September skies, i like the bright color, floral designs and geometric shapes, it gives a lot of possibility in layout designs. Since it is about "color", i stamped "love you more" (from same September Skies collection) in multi-colors directly on the paper, as well as circles and triangles, splash some acrylic paints randomly all over as the colorful layout background. i also use acrylic paint to color the wood accents to match the background and they add dimension into this design. 





Be Brave Be Bold Be You


This is the second layout i created using this kit, the lettering set in this kit comes from Me and My Big Ideas. it is a transparent sticker in gold, and the size is super big, which i love it! You can keep it as a whole like I do, or you can cut them apart to fit into your designs.

i draw some leaves around the green banner to match the nature element in the photo, and if you know me you will notice it's my signature!


In all, this month's kit is rich and colourful, the title set is a real surprise, embellishments are so cute and thanks for HK Memory Chest for organising  such a great kit to start a new year!  I hope you will all enjoy it and if you are new to scrapbooking, this will be a good chance to get a fresh start here with us!
