Here is the first layout that I did using this amazing kit:

This is a layout of my beautiful baby girl with her Aunt Grandma, Lola Fe. The photo was taken last April 3, 2010 during the Ruidera Clan Reunion. I just love this photo so much and it was perfect for the kit.

I enjoyed doing this layout and a lot of time adding color and dimension to my page. Here are the materials that I've used:

Cardstock: Bazzill
Patterned Papers: My Minds Eye Quite Contrary -Little Boy Blue
Alpha: Jillibean, October Aftermoon and Adorn It
Diecut: My Minds Eye Quite Contrary -Little Boy Blue
Sticker: My Minds Eye Quite Contrary -Little Boy Blue
Paint: Shimmerz Spritz (Sea Foam & Tuscan Sun)and Blingz (Winter Green)
Pin: Maya Road and twine
Flower: Prima
Others: Ranger Distress Inks, FiskarBorder Punch, Liquid Pearls





 I have used a lot of Shimmerz Paints on this layout and a lot of layering. I think I have added apart of each patterned paper from the kit on this one. Shimmerz Spritz was randomly sprayed on this page and on the photo.
