Here is the project that I created using this amazing and jam packed kit:

And the process video for it:

Here are some close up images of my project. I decided to stick to a vertical circular design for this page.

 Journaling is something I do on pretty much every layout, and normally by using my typewriter.

There were a lot of bright colours on this layout, I loved the paler pink paper to mat my photo. It added that softness that I was searching for. Especially with such a soft photo.  I absolutely loved the floral chipboard piece. It inspired the whole colour palette for this layout. 

I just love this photo of my little man and his caring big sister.
