Evelyn's October Kit Projects

Hi lovely peeps, Evelyn here today. I want to share with you my projects for October. This time I only used the Main Kit - Among the Birds, which includes absolutely adorable papers and embellishments, and the gorgeous Flower Add-On, again with most adorable flowers. It was so great to work with the kits again!

Here is my first layout, I made after the October Sketch Challenge (I mirrored the sketch). For this layout I made a process video, I hope you enjoy watching!

from my stash: Matte Medium, black and white Gesso, black tea, metallic rub on, stencil and modelling paste, Chipboard, Thread, mists, inks, stamps, dies, leaves, old lace, old book page
 Here some close ups:




And here is the process video:


My next layout is made with an old photo I found at a flea market. Well, I don't know who the pretty lady is, but I like her picture.

from my stash: Gesso, embossing powders, mists, drawing ink, modelling paste and stencils, cutting dies
 Here are some close ups:


Look at these pretty flowers! Aren't they adorable?!

I embossed the chipboard with black embossing powder, but it didn't cover everything, it cracked, and I love how it turned out!

Here you can see the right edge, again one of the tiny flowers and one die-cut rose, on top some Gesso and sprinkled with some pink and silver glitter.

The chandelier I embossed with black embossing powder and sprinkled some gold glitter embossing powder on top, when it was still hot. The chipboard frame I heat embossed pink and black.

My third layout I made, fitting to the season, autumnal. Here I have omitted almost all embellishments.

from my stash: cardstock, modelling paste, stencil, acrylic paints from former C´est Magnifique kits, Mica flakes, sand paste, mists and threads
 Some close ups:




My last project is an altered empty chocolates box. I gave it a coat with one of the papers from the Main Kit, distressed the edges with Distress Ink in Walnut Stain and embellished the cover with two tags and twine. The large roses and the pearl swirl sticker are from the Main Kit.


I enjoyed working with this kit very much! Thank you for dropping by here today! If you like, you can get the kits in the C'est Magnifique Store.

Have a nice day!

Nadine's October Kit Projects

Hello, everyone! Nadine here today sharing my layouts I created using the C'est Magnifique October Kits. These kits are absolutely gorgeous! The Prima Garden Fable papers give this kit a romantic feel. In addition to using the October Main Kit, I also used the October Embellishment Add-On Kit, October Flower Add-On Kit, and the October Mixed Media Kit.

The add-on kits are a fabulous addition to the main kit. I created five layouts total with these kits using lots of products on each one, and I still have a ton of products left to create several more layouts if I wish.

For my first layout, I used the October C'est Magnifique Sketch and a picture of my beautiful mother.


This layout includes products from the October Main KitOctober Embellishment Add-On Kit, and the October Mixed Media Kit.
From my stash: Thread, Black Cardstock, and Black Color Mist



On my second layout, I had lots of fun using the tags in the kits. This was a picture of me when I was little learning to swim. There is lots of layering on this layout. 

From my stash: Thread, Pink & Black Cardstock, and Color Mists.




I think this next layout is my favorite of them all. I love the purples and it matched perfectly with my son's prom dates dress. On the chandelier chipboard piece, I used some embossing powders and for the doilies I used the packaging for the Prima flowers. 

From my stash: Purple & White Cardstock, Embossing Powders, Cheese Cloth, Gesso and Color Mists





Who says you can't use flowers and pink on layouts with guys on them? I love how this layout turned out of my dad and me.


From my stash: Clear Gesso, Cream Cardstock, and Color Mists



For my last layout, I created this super cute page of our rotten Rottweiler when she was a puppy. Green is my favorite color so of course I love this page, and it also helps that the picture is super cute too.


From my stash: Dark Brown Cardstock, Dry Wall Tape, Brown Distress Ink, Gesso, and Color Mists




Thank you for looking, and I hope you were inspired. To see all of the C'est Magnifique Kits click HERE.

Happy crafting!

Kathleen's October Kit Projects

Greetings everyone, Kathleen here sharing with you my first projects as a Design Team member with C'est Magnifique! I simply adore this months kit "Among the Birds." The colors are vibrant and alive just perfect to scrap these pictures from my trip to visit my son and his family in Washington, DC. We arrived just in time to see the famous cherry trees in bloom! It was amazing to see. Of course there is also nothing better than having quality time with my little grandson.

For this layout I used the Main Kit and Flower Add-On.
From my stash: watercolors
Here are a few close ups.


This kit is super awesome!  I used every bit of it.  I popped the dots from the tags and used them as accent pieces in the above layout.




For this layout I cut the center piece of houses from the main paper and fussy cut the houses to use in a later layout you saw for the sketch challenge.  I used the Main Kit and the Flower Add-On for this layout. Can I say again how crazy I am over this kit!
Stash item: paint mists, stencil and modeling paste, drywall tape, doily
 

I used a stencil and modeling paste down the center of the layout then used strips of drywall tape (you can find this in the hardware store super cheap and it will last forever!) for added texture.


My third layout uses the Main Kit only.
 Stash items: Paint mists, dictionary paper, purple netting
I have a few butterfly stamps and I decided to use one on the papers to create my own embellishments that coordinate perfectly with these papers. Aren't they fantastic?!

 
I carefully peeled apart this gorgeous purple rose and refolded it into two more separate roses to create the bouquet. The background was created from stencil and modeling paste, a few paints to add color and finally a stamp for design.


Above, I fussy cut a tag, edged it in brown, and used an arrow sticker for detail plus a sticker underneath. I use lots of torn paper and one from an old dictionary for my frame.
 
For my final layout I used the Main Kit plus the Flower Add-On. I saw this incredible courtyard in front of a countryside house in Southern France. So incredibly beautiful.

To show how awesome this kit is I even used the packaging from the flowers for layering around the picture plus the corrugated cardboard from the box it all comes in.  How much better can it get!
 

I love the different colors the alpha stickers come in. They perfectly match all the papers in this kit.  Look closely at the large flower the petals have old timey picture on them. Gorgeous! 
 
 
 Just look at this precious fairy that comes in the kit.

Thank you for stopping by and taking a peek. I can't wait to see what you create from this kit. Happy crafting!  Please check out the Store for this and past kits.
