Well, are you drooling over this new scrapbooking kit, Le Chic Vintage, yet?!?!

I cannot tell you how fabulous it is...so PERFECTLY my style!!!

I am even more excited that you are getting a sneak peek of it (even though it won't be available until September) because that means I can play with it and SHARE!!! I have been dying to play with this kit ever since I got it.

I did manage to get a couple of projects done with it. First, of course, has to be the layout...
This is one of those photos that was pure luck, but I knew that it was a winner as soon as I saw it in my camera window. Kat has amazing eyes...everyone comments on them that meets her, but her eyelashes are just as incredible and I love that this photo highlights them while also showing her Princess Personality. ;o)
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Company Le Chic Vintage
*Unity Stamp Co. Frame this Alpha ("Princess" and "Kat")
*Memory Box paper
*Prima bling
*Memories inkpad
*Fiskars border punch
*ribbon
*buttons
************
I finished up the layout fairly late last night, but I just had to put together a quick card to show off another one of these fabulous images (and I think that this one is my favorite one of the bunch.) The best way to put together a card quickly is to use a sketch and one of my favorite card sketch sites is Mojo Monday. This week they are celebrating their 100th sketch with a new sketch every day. I used Tuesday's sketch for my card, MOJOMARIA...
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. Le Chic Vintage
*Cosmo Cricket Earth Love collection
*various border punches (fiskars & martha stewart)
*SU celery ribbon
*brads
*corner rounder
*Memories brown inkpad

And you have reached the end of today's Blog Hop.
Leave a comment here and you might win one of my favorite kits ever...


The winner will be announced in the SCS Unity forum around 8:00 CST tonight.
