1 Kit, 4 Ways: Summer Pleasures
I’m super excited to be bringing you this week’s fun collaboration, by Audrey Neal and Juliana Kneipp, called Summer Pleasures:
Makes me want to throw on a swimsuit (almost!) and take the kids down to the pool (definitely!) for some fun in the sun! Let’s take a look at this week’s layouts, put together by our creative Decorators:
Layout by Liz Jutila
Liz says: “Every scrapper should have this problem: there were so many, cute, wonderful, adorable embellishments in this kit that I wanted to use them all! I will definitely be using this kit for another layout. And another. This kit has fun and whimsical elements, and it’s also got oceany, and even elegant, all in one kit! For “what’s a water table?” I really enjoyed combining Audrey’s doodly border and crookedy-striped pp with Ju’s hand-cut sun and cloud. The frames gave my photos a spunky home for a good multi-photo lo. And the little bee helped run the story across the page. One of my favorite collaborations this year!”
Layout by Mary Rogers
Mary says: “I love the summer colors and elements with this collaboration. I was able to blend papers from both designers to create the affect I was looking for. I adjusted the opacity for my background. I then added my photos, paper strips, stitching and elements. I used Ju’s sand element texture and just added color for the background under the main photo and added her water border. To create the title I cut the word Summer from Audrey’s word art and added a sticker layer. For the circles I started out using the beach ball element and cut out the middle section. Thanks Audrey and Juliana for such a fun kit.”
Layout by Jennifer Hignite
Jennifer says: “Oh this collab was so much fun to work with!! I fell in love with the colors as soon as I saw them and loved them even more with every paper & element I opened! For this layout I used Juliana’s frame elements to showcase a bunch of summer photos. Mixed together with Audreys word art and papers the whole thing came together easily and I could not be happier with the results!!”
Layout by Mandi Buchanan
Mandi says: “I love this picture of my daughter – so much so that I’ve been afraid to scrap it for over a year now! When I saw these kits I knew right away that it would work perfect for this “taboo” pic, as well as all the summer photos I have. I used papers from both Audrey and Juliana. Then I added Audrey’s journaling card, flower, and some sequins. For a finishing touch I used Juliana’s water border and splash. I love how it turned out!”
