This month, I have invited a contributor from our Scrapbook & Cards Today Magazine Reader’s gallery, Kim Watson, who was featured in our Fall 2015 issue. Check out the amazing prokect Kim used this month’s free cut file:

Kim Watson 1Supply list: Cardstock: Bazzill Basics; Patterned Paper: Pink Fresh Studios; Thickers, Chipboard, Felt: American Crafts; Glitter hearts: Freckled Fawn; Paint: Ranger; (All supplies from Hip Kit Club kit)

I LOVE how Kim used bold pops of colour and then added the gold hearts into the open area of the cut file design!

Here is the page I created with the same cut file:

Nicole 1Supplies: Patterned paper Stickers, Chipboard : Crate Paper; Enamel Dots: My Mind’s Eye; Clip: Jen Hadfield for Pebbles Inc.

I chose to fill the open hearts from the cut file with paper and some handstitching. Nice and simple. :)
