SUNDAY SKETCH WITH KERSTIN
Hi everyone!
Kerstin here, sharing pages in my Citrus Twist Life-Crafted Album using today's sketch! I fell into older family photos while photo printing and thought they would be perfect for this sketch!
Here is the sketch that I used to create my layout:
I have divided the sketch into 2 pages and put one photo on each page. Let's start!Herer you can see a closer look at the strips. I decorated the stripes with the BACK TO BASICS Arrows, Hearts & Clouds Chipboard Stickers, BACK TO BASICS Puffy Word, Phrase & Number Snippets and a few Enamel Dots. I placed my family photo on the bottom left.
On the right side I decorated the strips with various Bits and Pieces including Life Crafted FLEA MARKET FINDINGS Chipboard Frames, BACK TO BASICS Word, Phrase & Number Snippets.
I stamped my title with the Citrus Twist 6" x 8" TRUE LIFE Stamp V1 and cut it out. Below that, my handwritten journaling complemented by the Tiny Word Alphabet Stickers form the Citrus Twist Life Crafted CRAVE Mini-Kit.
Here you can see a closer look at the title!
For me, a sketch usually takes on a life of its own! I choose a detail from the sketch and start with it! I'm looking forward to see how your creation will look like! Tag @citrustwistkits in your project so we can see it!
I hope I could inspire you and am very excited about your projects!
See you soon!
Kerstin xx

Life Crafted Inspiration with Ingunn
I've made several pages about her love of reading, but the "need more days like this" sentiment made me angle this differently - the days she has downtime like this to recharge after school are definitely the best days. I think this is because she's an introvert, like me!
I didn't realize I was an introvert until I was around 30, and before that, I thought I was just weird for getting so exhausted after being social. I want my kid to know that it's definitely not weird, and to have a toolbox of things that will make her life easier and more pleasant - like the fact that her instinct to disappear into a book after being around loud kids for hours is the perfect way to recharge! I added the "go with your gut" chipboard too, and then three little puffy starbursts from the Travelogue kit for good measure. I also put some patterned paper from the Flea Market Findings collection to keep my page from looking too naked.
I hope you've all had a great week and that you'll have the chance to recharge in the way that soothes your soul!

Sunday Sketch with Shu-Wen
It's Shu-Wen here, sharing a spread in my Life Crafted Album that I made using today's sketch! This one is documenting celebrating Mother's Day and my sister's birthday last week (we decided to celebrate a bit early because I wasn't going to be in town this weekend).

One other difference between the sketch and my layout was that I made my photo mats into interactive flips and flaps to hold more photos (11 in total!). I love the challenge of turning a flat sketch into a functioning interactive page to include lots of hidden surprises like these additional photos!

Life Crafted Inspiration with Aimee
Hello friends, it's Aimee here sharing some Friday Life Crafted inspiration! I created a fun spread in my Life Crafted Album using the new Crave Mini Kit and pieces from the Maggie Holmes Round Up Add-On Kit. Let's take a look!
Keeping to the May theme of cravings, this layout is all about what I crave most lately — alone time! Sometimes simply going for a drive or to run an errand by myself can be a total mood booster and just what I need to refocus and recharge. Also, may I just say that sometimes sitting in the drive way for a long moment before going inside is self care? If you know, you know!
To start off this layout I grabbed a neutral piece of patterned paper from my stash of Citrus Twist goodies, I believe this one came from the Little Things Paper Stack, then I layered vellum over top and some kraft paper too for a more organic feel. I used florals from the Maggie Holmes Round Trip Icon Ephemera pack to accentuate my photo and added a simply statement — "you deserve this".
For my title that would sit on the page opposite I extended that same neutral paper and floral for cohesion. I selected these scripty words from the Crave Die Cut Ephemera pack and popped one of them up on foam dots for added interest— how perfect? I tucked in a small tag found in the Travelouge Kit that I could write my private journaling on and conceal behind the rest of the layers. I also love how the tag plays off of the kraft paper I used on the left.
I finished off with a healthy splattering of black acrylic paint just for fun! There you have it! What's your mood booster? I challenge you to create a page about it and make sure to tag Citrus Twist Kits on Instagram so we can all check it out! Happy crafting!
Affectionately,
