March 2025 - Mini Kit and Project Reveal

Welcome back to the blog. Today is the day we share mini kits with you. If you are short on time, or if you have a specific project in mind, a mini kit can have you covered. Two of the team, Vikki and Laurie, are here to show off how they go mini.

As a reminder here is the inspiration We are working with this month.

A Beach Tale

MF Laurie

When I first saw this month's inspiration kit, I knew it would be perfect to scrap photos from a trip to Hawaii in 1988. Yes! I said 1988! I know you all have older photos you haven't scrapped, maybe not as old as mine, but we all have them. I loved the tropical feel/ Here are the papers I chose.

These are the embellishments.

Here is my first layout. I made by flowers with stamps and Distressed Oxide inks.

Layout number two is a double page spread.

I went super mini with the kit this month.  I didn't have beach photos to scrapbook, so I pulled my kit from the colors in the inspiration kit. My kit consisted of four full sheets of paper, four pieces of scrap patterned paper, a few alphabet options, minimal embellishments and I couldn't forget enamel dots.

For my first layout, I made a page documenting my recent birthday.  By shrinking the photos, I was able to fit sixteen on the page.  A few simple embellishments and enamel dots finish off the page.

I was able to make a second layout with my mini kit this month.  I used the paper scraps for the backgrounds behind the photos and the scallop border.  I really loved the colors of the kit this month and it was perfect to document a breakfast date with my bestie.

Now, let's see what we have lined up for the rest of this month:
