midnight rooster

I was lucky enough to be asked by Tobi of the Midnight Rooster Kit Club to be November's guest designer. Of course I said YES!!! She puts together such lovely kits, with fun fabric and fancy pins, and an amazing mix of patterned paper, and November was no exception. Meet A Random Story:

Here is what I created with the kit:

As soon as I saw the glittery My Mind's Eye paper, it made me think of A's Halloween costume:)

See how pretty one of the pins included in the kit is? I added some twine from my stash to complete the page;)

For this page, I used the envelope the pins were sent in to house the manila tag. I printed things about Miss A at 6:)

I used this tutorial to do the chevron pattern (which I will definitely be doing again, love the outcome!!!)

I wanted to showcase lots of the pretty patterns from the kit, so I mimicked the stripes from Aislynn's jacket in the photos.

I came up with a card using the sweet little wood houses from the kit:

For my final project, I wanted to make a teeny album of the silly things Aislynn has said over the past year. I went through my facebook statuses and little notes in my purse to find the things I have jotted down/documented.

I still have quite a bit from the kit, so I hope to squeeze out another layout and card:)

Thanks so much, Tobi, for having me this month!!!
