Discover True Beauty

This week Helmar has paired up with Pink Paislee to bring you some fantastic projects 

and today is my day to share what I have created on the Helmar Blog.

My first layout is simply layered with wonderful papers from Pink Paislee's "Secret Crush"

Collection.  I used lots of Helmar Premium Craft Glue to adhere these layers. 

I used Quick Quotes Powder Puff Chalking Ink in Dusty Rose to add color to the scalloped ribbon from Pink Paislee and in Coal Miner to add color to "discover" in my title work. 

The banner and arrow are propped up with some Helmar Zapdots.  

In my last Helmar Live Ustream Class I used lots of this same Pink Paislee collection with Pan Pastels to create "My Love."  

Helmar Premium Craft Glue, 450 Quick Dry Adhesive and ZapDots were 

my Helmar glues of choice for this layout.

Lovin' on Scrappy Chics!

I have to say that Scrappy Chic's October Kit is one of my favorites!

Lovin' the balance of muted, pretty colors of Teresa Collins Vintage Finds

and the bright, bold colors of the Crate Paper Farmhouse Collection.

"A Daughter" has to be one of my recent favorites. 

I just love the grey on grey with just a touch of peach.

Doesn't hurt that my beautiful daughter, Lily, is the focus.  

Can you tell by "Sweetie Pie" that I am loving green & yellow?

The cute photos of my daughter and grandson, Kass & Chase, definitely

pulled out the green and yellow from the Farmhouse Collection papers. 

I have been taking lots of pictures on Instagram (I am ktbomb15 on Instagram if you want to follow me) lately and just figured out how to print them on my new HP Photosmart printer.  

"My Time With Mimi & Gramps" has Instagram pics of Chase spending time with us while Kass recovers from her accident.  It is so fun to do the day to day toddler activities with him! 

Yes, drinking a milkshake is a normal activity in our house. 

Using both the Vintage Finds and Farmhouse Collection papers in this month's Scrappy Chics Kit I created this simple, yet pretty frame.  I really loved all the fun hexagon Teresa Collins stickers that came with the kit and wanted to highlight "Make Good Things Happen."  

The frame is a 4 x12 panoramic. I used the Sizzix 2" hexagon die to cut the hexagons.  

I am hoping to make some more frames to compliment this one to hang in my craft room.  

Don't foget to check out what the other design team members have created at Scrappy Chics!

They will certainly inspire you to use this month's kit.
