"Just Because. I Love You." ~ March MMM Kit from C'est Magnifique!

Hi everyone!

I sure hope you had a great weekend and are all ready for a new week. Me? Not so ready- but here we are, right?? ;)

  Today I'm sharing my final project using the March Magnifique Mixed Media Kit from C'est Magnifique!

"Just Because. I Love You."

I decided to go with a simple yet elegant card to showcase the subtle side of the possibilities with the mixed media kit. 

I spritzed the Lindy's Stamp Gang mist and then just a bit of water before dabbing with a wipe to draw up a little bit of the color. I tilted the card just before dabbing to allow the drips to fall a little bit more as seen here.

I've also used the same mist on one of the white flowers to pull the whole look together.

My flower cluster included plenty of layers between the bows and flowers and the chipboard piece which I cut in half before sticking behind the top and bottom of my cluster.

I hope you've enjoyed my MMM projects this month!

And be on the lookout for our next kit to be revealed SOON :)!

Take care,

"Always Sweet"

 I concentrated more on the KaiserCraft papers on this one for my sweet little girly!! :) For me, having both a girl and 2 boys means I'm scrapping both femininely and masculinely- so I love that this kit is so versatile in that way!

Thanks for checking out my blog today! Make sure you head on over to the C'est Magnifique store HERE and shop the July section for this kit, its add-ons, and individual items too. Don't miss out- they go FAST!

We'll see you again VERY soon...for a very special announcement ;)

A First Peek at the July Kit from C'est Magnifique~!

Hello, my friends :). I've been busy creating projects for CHA, so I've been a bit quiet- and I apologize :). Just so much to do and not enough time, as always. But thank-you for taking the time out of your own busy lives to come and visit me :)!

Today I have for you a first look at the July Kit from C'est Magnifique. So let's begin!

"16 Years"

This is a very special photo of my dad and me. June 3rd marked 16 years since he passed away, and that day in particular is especially difficult for me. One moment I will be fine and the next...well, I'm not so fine. So I took the time that day to write a little note to him and created this layout.

In July, you will find paper from two manufacturers in our kit and it is a combination that works so well together.  First, we have the bold black and cream "My Dear Watson" collection from a Polish company,  UHK Gallery.  We have added the soft elegance of several sheets from the "On This Day" collection from the Australian manufacturer, KaiserCraft.  If you are interested in purchasing the Paper Add-on, it can be found HERE in our store.

Our kits are filled with amazing embellishments, but if you are the type of scrapper who likes a little (or a lot) of extras, then our add-ons are perfect for you.  We reveal our add-ons early since they sell out quickly.  You can always get on our list to receive either, or both, of the add-ons each month by e-mailing leslie{at}cestmagnifiquekits.com.  Here are the add-ons for our July Kit.
