Geek Lab: Traditions Layout

December 8, 2015 by ArtfulLeighCreative 7 Comments

Hello Clique Kits friends! Leigh here, with a layout using the “Clique Into December” Limited Edition Kit! The tools used on this layout are a simple square punch, and a star punch.

 

 

For this grid layout, you can use a 2 and 1/8th inch square punch to make quick work of creating the 9 squares. Then, printing your photos out at 2 inches, leaves a 1/16th inch border and makes a nice mat for your photos.

 

 

The whole basis for this layout started with a little idea that popped into my head; using the tinsel in this kit to layer behind the punched star. It created a little puffy looking embellishment, and inspired me to create the  rest of the squares! It was so much fun to pick out the little die cut pieces from the MANY full packs of Pinkfresh Studio embellishments in this kit!

 

 

I machine stitched around all the squares containing stars for continuity. You can have fun adding different punched stars either on top of, or below the squares, to give added interest and texture.

 

 

Added the die cut frame, included in the Pinkfresh Studio Card Stock Die Cut pack, behind the top left photo.
