#NSDSC15 | Challenge 04 - Mix Those Kits with Lisa Truesdell, Keisha Campbell, and April Foster
We're challenging you to try to find a bunch of combinations for mixing products from your kits! Scrapbook paper in a pocket, Card stamps on a journal card, anything you can dream up!
Lisa Truesdell and April Foster: (Lisa) I was at the Studio Calico offices this week, so April and I decided to tackle our NSD challenge pages together. And just to throw in a fun twist, we turned it into a race. (April won. Hmph. Even though she was holding a baby while finishing her layout!)
Both of us opted to mix from kits that were already out on our desks - I had transferred everything from my desk at home to a box before heading out to Bowling Green. We both used products from the last few months of kits and dipped into each other's goodies to finish up our layouts. I couldn't help but use the stamp set from Paige Evans' Make It Big class. It's so much fun to work with!
Mixing kits is a great way to squeeze another layout or two out of your leftovers - and it's a great way to try new color schemes too!
Supplies: Studio Calico kits – Lisse Street Scrapbook, Carolina Moon Scrapbook, Ivy Tower Add-on, Magic Carpet Add-on; Ink - Color Theory Inky Black; Tiny Attacher; Precision Pen 03
Keisha Campbell: I used a few of SC card kits & stamps to make PL cards. I love mixing the stamps from various kit to make my cards-that floral stamp from the Lisse Street kit is so gorgeous( I was happy to have a chance to use it again). The Signed Sealed Delivered stamp set from this month's add-on card kit was a big favorite of mine and I had to use it. I am so excited at how these turned out-simple fresh clean designs!
Supplies: Carolina Moon Card kit, Carolina Moon Project Life kit, Signed Sealed Delivered Stamp set, Color Theory Labels Bundle

This LO has items from 13 kits spanning 3 years! From Roundabout to Lisse St. I am amazed how well most SC kit items go together.
