August Club Q Bonus Project Ideas are here!

Hello again!  I'm back with Quick Quotes Club Q Bonus Project Ideas for August!

I had a great time peeking thru my box and immediately jumped in!  So I'll get right to the good stuff!

HANG IN THERE JOURNAL

 
One of my favorite things to do is combine stamping with my papercrafting.  When I saw the trees in this months kit, these little guys jumped right out at me!  I covered a composition book, used one of my trees, ribbon and butterfly, then added my little guys and then covered them with liquid glass to make them glossy!


I used more trees and houses in my layout HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS 

I love layouts like this, with a general title, because I can use favorite photos from different times and situations all on one layout!  

This next layout is like that too!  It is called HOME TWEET HOME
 
I LOVE this patterned paper from the Club Q kit!  The colors are so beautiful and it was pre-cut into butterflies and other goodies.  I think I used every scrap of it!  I even used the thin strips that were outside the squares to make the flower! 

I also used stickles glitter!  Who doesn't love butterflies, birds and glitter!?!  It is so fresh and summer-y (is that a word?)   In the next couple of days I will be posting directions on how to make this flower!

Journals are so fun to make!  I am trying to get more organized, by making lists, so now I have tons of lists!  I love this one, it was easy to make, using one of the chipboard book pages and several pages of paper inside.  I inked the cover using sponges in green and blue, then added a little brown too.  It has a very hippy, earthy look.  Plus I added just a bit of Smooch ink to give it a little sparkle!  The title quote is so terrific, but it wouldn't fit perfectly, so I had to cut it and I put liquid glass on the punchline to make it POP!  A little ribbon and wa-la!  It would make a great gift!


The minute I saw this title in my kit, I knew just what I wanted to do with it!  I added pink and finished the quote!

THIS IS MY STORY AND I'M STICKIN' TO IT



I just love how this turned out!  The white flower on the title block gave me the idea to add white embossed flowers randomly about the layout.  I especially love the way the rest of the title came out!


Once again I had a great time with my Club Q kit!   I hope you liked my creations and they gave  you a few ideas, a little instantMojo!

Thanks for joining me!
