Although we’re coming to the end of the month, we’re still enjoying the August Cocoa Daisy Kit. I only received mine early last week and wanted to share these layouts created with the yummy goodies.
Just breathe: Sometimes I need to remind myself to do this..
Happy Birthday layout: I love making smaller sized images (I use Adobe InDesign to plan the images before printing at home). And combining them with some larger images to tell the full story. It always results in a fun layout with a deeper glimpse into the images that help tell my story. 
Other stories that can use this technique include: vacation pics, day trips, summaries of a school year, and even your favourite pics for the month.
Fun Sliding: I fell in love with these stripes when I saw them.. so much fun. So bright and happy. So this is my Fun Sliding page combining a few patterned papers from the main kit. Not an ounce of the plain cardstock to be seen.. The orange panel is from the plain side of the American Crafts Patterned Paper. The Fun scalloped edges are also repeated throughout.
Have Bike Will Travel: Circles! The fun and colorful circles are fun elements to repeat on the page. I used a pinhead, dipped in Chocolate Paint (from one of the Add-Ons) to produce the dots you see on the pink panel and on the title panel. Also dotted around one of the photos to draw the eye to it.
August was so much fun to play with.. and another one of those kits that keep on giving!! Can’t play with it enough…
Hope to see your August creations in the Cocoa Daisy gallery too!
xoxo,
Sue.
