This month the Club Scrap kit is called
~ National Parks~
and I hope you came over here from
and enjoyed seeing her wonderful project for this hop.
Now you won't believe me saying this: but this kit
was not for me, no feeling with parks at all.
As you know paper has two sides and I do love
the colors of this kit These colors are perfect for:
coffee cards!
so I got out my coffee stencil and stamps from
Wat's Brewing to make this card.
The background is layers made with the stencil
and the burlapthat came with this kit is a
perfect embellishment.
Also the colors of this kit are great for my Italy
pictures. I took the ALSB instructions and
used layout 13&14
You find these free instructions HERE.
As you turn the pages all of them have a plain color.
That makes a boring page,so out come the stencils!
With the adobe stencil and some acrylic paint
( antique linnen) I decorated the paper.
And for the kraft colored paper I used the stencil
fromCape Cod , ink and a blender tool.
If you loose your way along the hop,
you can always go back to the main page on the
Club Scrap Blog, where you find all
the links tothe blogs that participate.
Now for the next blog, you can see what
has come up with for you.
Happy Hopping!
Have a creative day!

HEtty, thanks for showing alternate ways to use the CS kit when it doesn't quite "tickle your fancy" :)
LOVE what you did to amke it your own
I'm glad you were able to make a home for these beautiful colors in your projects, Hetty! :)
Great job with these pages and making them your own style Hetty! Loving the coffee card!
Great idea to stencil the backgrounds of the plain side of the papers. Way to think "outside the box"! Your cards and pages came out great. TFS!
Great idea! Love the Sienna page -- gorgeous!
Those backgrounds look great! I forget to try things like that. Thanks for encouraging us to think out of the box!
you both make me feel better and inspire me, Hetty. Like you,
I can't seem to connect with the theme of this month's kit.
I do love how you used the stencils to create the background for your Italy photos.
Love the cards!! I am more of a card maker than a scrapbooker... Just started scrapping a few months ago!! Great ideas!!!
Great cards Hetty! Love the look :)
Smart idea to use the other side of the paper! Love your Italy pages! Have a great day Hetty!
Love how you made this kit your own! I make my own background digitally, but always forget that I can do it to paper too.
Wonderful adaptations to the papers! They work perfectly with your photos.
Wow! I love the brewed awakenings stamps and stencil. They are a perfect companion to this kits colors and the burlap. Great idea and beautiful book. TFS
I also love how you changed the kit to fit your needs! The colors are always beautiful even when the theme doesn't speak to you. Great lesson!!
