Cuddles Time

Scrapbook Layout created for Citrus Twist Kits  - CUDDLES TIME -

Hi there!

It is a busy day in my blog!!

I am also up in the CTK blog for their new feature: Product Spotlight,  and this time the focus is the crochet thread that was included in the Cedar Grove Main Scrapbook kit.

As soon as Trina, mentioned that there will be crochet thread included in the kit, I had the idea of adding some crocheted elements to the page.  I am an avid crocheter, and this was the best way to add texture to the page.  My choice was to use the thread to opaque the pink color of the tag, and instead bring some of a more masculine tone to it by crocheting its edge.  I simply poked holes along the edge of the tag, and added a few lines of crochet using a small hook.  Then accented the look by tying the small charm that inspired this cut file.

I chose to keep the palette of this project fairly masculine so that i could document a picture of my husband with the little one.  So i picked most b sides from the papers included in this month's Cedar Grove Kits, and mixed them up with some light blue vellum.

I am not an alpha girl (though i own lots of them), but this ones are just a dream to work with, and had to make their way to the title of this page.  IF you are loving all this papers and add ons, then check the CITRUS TWIST KITS Cedar Grove Kits, this month's kits are to die for!!!

Here is the final layout.  I love the colors, and the textures in the page (i love that i could include some of my other crafty passions to the page). Remember to stop by the CTK blog to see what some of the DT was inspired to create using the crochet thread.

Have a great day!
