You & Me Special Kit

These are two double page  layouts using the special kit from CTMH called You & Me. It is a beautiful Sepia tone on one set of pages and Chocolate and Olive  colors on the other set. The papers are card stock weight and double sided with different designs on each side.

Here is the "Time to Celebrate" layout

Here are the 2nd layouts using the Chocolate and Olive and Goldrush colors. A really nice stamp set comes in the kit shown here. Notice the stamp that is stitching lines!!! Now all of you that rather not sew on your pages but like the sewn look and want them perfectly spaced and even you can get this done using this wonderful stamp. Now although I love to sew on my pages and will do so on many more to come I had to give this a try and see what I thought of it. I was very impressed with the look. It isn't dimensional of course like thread would be but it really does look like stitches.

Do you see the stamp that has the stitching lines used on these two pages?

Here is the complete stamp set. Lot's of very versatile stamps. Check out that flourish!! You can also use that for the look of water waves in a summer boating project for example. Cute little pennant that are so popular right now and that Top Note shape. I can't wait to play some more with this set.

Another interesting item that came in this kit  were chipboard pieces with a resist design on them. In other words you can color them using either inks, chalks, markers or watercolors.  When doing so the resist pattern repels the ink etc. and the rest of the piece takes on the color. Your design then shows up clearly when you're done.  They are a interesting part of the layouts adding texture and design.

I don't have these items shown here but the wide striped grosgrain ribbon and the Opaque Mocha Gems also came as a part of this kit.

Sorry for the lack of photos but I am wanting to get some from my daughter and so I am posting without photos but will update when I get them on there.

Thanks for looking.
