Inspiration with Alena

 Hi everyone!  Alena here today!
Today I would like to share with you my step-by-step layout tutorial , which is part of the my spread Project Life. I used December 2015 "Wonder" Pocket Life Kit and  December 2015 Sprinkles Kit.

I decided to make the main element of my layout -  fall leaf.

I cut all elements using the template. 

It is time to add the embellishments.

I added stamps and some spray paint.

I want to share and other reversals of this month.

Hope you are inspired to dig out your CTK kits and start to create today! Thanks for letting me share with you. 

Happy Crafting!

3 to Inspire with Diane

Diane here with another "3 to Inspire" challenge. You can find this challenge here every Saturday for those who need a little extra creative push to get scrapbooking, to keep scrapbooking or for those who just like a challenge! Your take on this challenge can be a layout or a PL spread and remember that you'll want to include all 3 prompts on your project.

Your prompts this week are:
    1.    Create a grid within your layout.
    2.    Use an embellishment you might otherwise hoard!
    3.    Use three of something.

Here’s my take on this challenge:



I created my grid within a page protector but you could achieve the same look with a traditional page. I ADORE the Maggie Holmes standout embellishments from the Sprinkles kit this month and knew if I didn't use this one right now, I probably never would because it would be too "good"! I only had two doilies but I split one in half to create three and the rest of the layout came together quickly with minimal fuss to document our weekend away.

Here is the process video of how this layout came together...



And here are a few close-ups...




Now it's your turn! Use the three prompts to create your own projects and share them with us here in the gallery and/or our Facebook Forum. You can also upload to Instagram, but remember to tag us @citrustwistkits. Looking forward to seeing what you can do!

Pocket Life Sketch Friday with Mira

Hello!
It's Mira with Pocket Life Sketch Friday!
Today I'd love to talk a bit about a little project conducted by my Friend Huma! Because the month of November is such a cold and grey season here in Poland Huma decided to make it a bit warmer! How? By taking care of relations between Adults and their Children! She gathered a group of people, who would follow a list of great prompts suggesting what to do with kiddos every day during this month. It was something like: What's Your name?, Let's bake something together, Let's hug, Let's dance!, Amazing bath, Something nice for a stranger, Silly faces gallery, Our fairy tale, Let's play with light, etc...
The group was also motivated to document their actions in pictures and share them on Facebook and Instagram! You can find the results under the #bliskopad2015 hashtag.
We obviously joined this party and here's the first week of our crazy adventure:

Here's the whole page about our fairy tale. Ola was a princess and a bear for a while :) But She didn't seem to like the crown... or a hat :P
And here are the days when we were playing with a thread to present our names, having a concert using pot and some kitchen supplies, trying to watch family albums, hugging and documenting some silly faces.
Next Year I will encourage Huma to translate the prompts so You, our International Friends could join this fun!

But wait? Isn't that post about Pocket Life Sketch? Yeah right! I'm slowly getting there!
Ok, so I prepared a few sketches for You.
Here they are:

And here are a few details presenting some of the goodies that You will find in Your December PL Kit and Sprinkles Kits:

Gorgeous white alpha stickers and tiny words chipboard stickers from Seven Paper together with absolutely wonderful pink stars (PL Kit).

Adorable Citrus Twist Kits stamps, wood chips and beautiful elements to cut out (PL Kit).

Great selection of 6x6 patterned papers from PL Kit.

And colorful puffy stickers from Sprikles Kit ideal for every kind of project!

I have to say! December Kits are awesome, so if You are still thinking about joining CTK subscription but hesitate - please don't. You're gonna love EVERY little thing about these kits!

Ok, now it's Your turn! I really can't wait to see where those sketches will take You!
For your chance to win, create a layout based on the sketches in this blog post, post your layout to our Gallery or our Facebook Fan Page by Friday, December 11th. Be sure to include PL 12/04 in the title!
Thanks for visiting Pocket Life Friday!

Have a fantastic weekend!

Kit Love with Karen

Hello friends!  Karen here with you today to share some December kit love. When I opened my box of goodies this month I felt particularly excited because I had a break from the Citrus Twist Kits Design team in November to complete a third year teaching prac, so therefore a box of pretty paper in the mail made my day. I've recorded my first unboxing video on YouTube, so be kind. I hope to do more.

Hope you enjoy it and the kit as much as I do.

Happy creating.
