FMAK #1/2016 - Kit Contents - Beautiful

Welcome back fellow crafters.  Those of you who stop by regularly will no doubt be aware of my love of putting homemade scrapbooking kits together.  It is a great way to use up your stash as well as encouraging you to stay motivated by limiting your product.  It can be quite easy to get overwhelmed if you have a huge stash and don't know where to begin.

I am still working with FMAK #6/2015 titled Puddles and FMAK #7/2015 titled Treat, but I'm ready to put together another kit.  The first one for 2016.  This kit will coincide with Calvinball, but I'll do a separate post for that.

My first 2016 kit is titled Beautiful.  I came up with that name because the primary two collection kits that I am using, My Mind's Eye (MME) My Story and American Crafts (AC) Hello Love, are very beautiful to me.  I have also thrown in a few other products from my stash.  However, what I am not showing is any mixed media product that I may use, for example gesso, modelling paste, mists, watercolour paints, stencils, stamps etc.  I will include them as I go along.  In addition, I will just pull thickers from my stash depending on what colour I may want to use.

Detailed below are photos of my kit contents, as well as a link to my YouTube video for those of you who may be interested.

Note: if you would like to see the 12"x12" papers, 6"x6" papers and embellishments in more details, please check out my Google Photos album - FiLoMa's Make A Kit #1/2016 - Beautiful.

FMAK #7/2015 - Kit Contents - Treat

Hi fellow crafters. Following on from my previous post, FMAK #6/2015 - Puddles, I have put together the Scrap Stash Kit Club October 2015 kit.  Once again the colour inspiration for this kit was shared on the Facebook group.

I love the colour inspiration for this kit. However, to be honest, they are colours that I would usually use as accents and not colours that I would base a kit around. That said, I've really enjoyed pulling items from my stash to coordinate with the colour inspiration and know that it is a kit I will have fun working with.

Here is a photo overview of the kit contents.

Here is a link to the short video I have put together for those of you who like to see kit contents shown in videos, like me.

FMAK #6/2015 - Kit Contents - Puddles

Hi fellow crafters. Today I am sharing with you the Scrap Your Stash September 2015 kit.  The colour inspiration for this was shared on the Scrap Stash Kit Club Facebook group.  There is also the website Scrap Stash Kit Club that you can check out for more details on how the kit club works.

The September kit has been  named Puddles by Margareta.  The colour inspiration was shared on the Facebook group.

I really like the colour inspiration for Puddles. I find I have many items within my stash that coordinate with these colours and they are colours that I naturally gravitate towards when doing layouts.

Here is a photo showing an overview of the kit contents.

I've put together a quick video for those of you who like to see the contents in a video.

FMAK #5/2015 - Kit Contents - Triad

Hi fellow crafters. As mentioned in my previous blog, I'm taking a class at Big Picture Classes (BPC) that teaches you how to build/put together your own scrapbook kit.  I consider myself fairly experienced in putting kits together, but I am having fun learning new approaches. For this class I've put two kits together. The first one, FMAK #4/2015 titled Split, can be read about in my previous post and this post is to show case the second kit I've put together called Triad.

Here is a photo showing an overview of the kit contents.

For those of you who like to see kit contents in a video, here is a quick video.

I've also included mixed media. However, this photo does not capture all the mixed media that will be in the kit because much of it is currently with my "50 Sheets of Pattern Paper" kit.
