paris holds the key to my heart layout | hip kit club

paris holds the key to my heart layout

Hey everyone! I’m back again with a layout using the December Hip Kit Club Kits! For this layout I really wanted to use multiple photos, as I have never tried incorporating more than one photo on a layout before. I always find it so difficult to place more than one of them, so in order to make it a bit easier, I compiled four of my photos into a photo strip. I used photos I took while in Paris last summer. I just booked a flight to Europe for the ending of this upcoming summer and the thought of returning to Paris got the song “Paris Holds the Key (To Your Heart” from the movie Anastasia in my head, so of course I had to scrap about it!

I used this beautiful blue star paper “Sparkle” designed exclusively for the kits by Kim Watson as my background and played around with a few branding strips to accent the bottom. The multi-color one is the #4 paper from the Pink Paislee Take Me Away collection and the striped one was from the Hip Kit Club exclusive paper named “City Sidewalks” from the November kits. I really wanted to include that stripe branding strip because black and white stripes always seem so Parisian to me. I layered that one crookedly on top of the other just to give the bottom a little bit of interest.

The difficult part for me was placing the photo strip. I ended up tearing a bit of that #4 paper from Pink Paislee and layering it behind the photo strip along with a ripped piece of vellum, just to add dimension and texture. I then took a few of the frames from the Take Me Away ephemera pack that’s in the Main kit and had them crookedly poking out from behind the photo strip. I tucked a black and white tab from my stash behind the photo strip as well, adding a piece from the Hip Kit Club cut apart sheet from the Project Life kit that reads “I love you!” on top of it. I stuck one of the Take Me Away paper clips also from the Project Life kit on the bottom of the photo strip and ending up placing that entire cluster off center, so that I could fit my really long title beside it.

For my title, I used the Crate Paper Heart Day Charming thickers from the Main kit to spell out “Paris Holds the Key to My.” Then I used the Take Me Away thickers from the Embellishment kit to spell out “Heart.” I love that pop of color and how it puts emphasis on the word Heart. For the final touch, I added a few of the Hip Kit Club acrylic stars in gold from the PL kit in the top left area above the frames, and two of the My Mind’s Eye Yes Please gold acrylic heart stickers from the Embellishment kit next to the word “Heart” on the bottom right. Even though this is super simple layout, it was a good way for me to incorporate all those photos on my page!

Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I had so much fun with this color scheme and style that I went ahead and made two matching #littleartnotes! This color combo is super rare for me (Titan Buff and Titan Mars Pale with Payne's Gray marks), but I'm really digging it! 

Happy Friday Loves! xx
When I originally set up these pages in my @getmes When I originally set up these pages in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal, I left a lot of space to write about what blooming means to me. It means growth, blossoming, and becoming. It means to flourish. It also represents nature and the restorative power of being in the wild. 

Bloom means a lot to me and yet while finishing up some of these half-finished pages, I was at a loss for words. This is when I found that word phrase stickers really help get the message across. xx
Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Seas Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. A lot of these pages were already in progress, so it's interesting to see them finished. I'm sure I had other intentions for what they were going to look like a couple of years ago when I first created this journal. Now, I'm content with matching colors, adding paint, and a few scribbles. This journal is all about the process of creating for me now, which I think is still a source of growth. xx
Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I rather like how this one turned out! I'm quite obsessed with using this Payne's Gray NeoColor crayon to make some scattered marks on my page. You might see a lot more of this in future spreads from this book. xx
I've been enjoying following along with the @getme I've been enjoying following along with the @getmessyartjournal #getmessymay prompts. I've basically been just watching them as they are posted. But the other night, I attempted the Happy prompt and it literally has gotten back into simply playing around with my supplies. I pulled out this very old Seasons of Bloom journal that is SO CLOSE to being finished. I figure I'd channel all of this creative energy I have right now to finishing it up!

I'm not responding to any particular prompt, just using the processes and techniques shared to finally complete this journal. xx
