Hello friends!!
Today brings us Day 5 of my February Video-a-Thon!! We are digging into this stash kit I found in my ottoman a few days ago. This kit is massive! It has 12x12" papers in it as well as a million pocket cards of various sizes! I have a lot of options with this kit, so we will see what I am able to make with it. When I was unboxing it I wasn't totally inspired by it, but I never really know until I start working with it. Today's layout is a pocket layout with photos from our 10 year wedding anniversary, a few different photos from that day. Here's how it turned out...
I love all of the colors of this page! It's a lovely layout since it's about our 10 year anniversary, but it also captures things that aren't just so lovely... like getting our tattoos, haha! I mixed black and white photos with full color photos so I really had to pay attention to color balance. I use a lot of white elements and bright colored elements to keep it bright and light.
This entire kit is from my stash so some of these items are older and not available anymore, but below you can find the items I used that are still available. As always, almost all of the tools I used are still available...
