Hello everyone!
Today is a great day! I am back after a short time off which was much needed! Even while I've been away I have still been scrapbooking... first using the May 2018 kit from Ali Edwards. I absolutely love the stamps that come in the kits from Ali Edwards, so it was no surprise that stamp set is what first caught my attention!
The repeat stamping makes a huge impact in my opinion, I am very pleased with how the layout turned out. The CD is an unconventional thing to scrapbook, but the stamping helps ground the bold CD and make a pretty layout still.
Make sure you subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can follow along with me using this kit as well as reviewing lots of other kits. Also make sure you go to my Resource Guide to download the PDF document I've put together to help with your kit shopping!
