Doodling has been around since people started writing and drawing. …so why not use it in scrapbooking?!

To add a fun stitched look to your layout, try doodling! Simply draw lines around the edges of the paper to get the look of a simple single stitch. Also, try using other colors to achieve different looks. I doodled on a layout using the July kit.

Simple stuff, right?! Give it a try on your next project. 🙂

“How do you add extra pop to your projects?”

To be quite honest, I’m all about dimension. To add dimension, use tons of foam adhesive to die cuts, letters, stickers, etc. You name it, I’ve used foam on it. 😉

For instance, here are some examples I created using this month’s sold-out kit:

In the above layout, by adding foam adhesive to the back of my cut out flowers, it adds some pizazz to my overall page.

Also, try adding foam to the back of letters. It definitely makes your title pop!

Besides making your projects look neat, using foam adhesive to add dimension also saves you tons of money. It’s a great way to make it look like your own handmade embellishments.

…so next time you feel like there’s something missing on your project, try adding dimension using foam adhesives.

For this one, I thought that an easy sketch would help you get some layouts started. Here’s a sketch created exclusively for My Paper Tree House:

…and here’s the layout I created using this sketch:

Don’t you just LOVE that cute little owl?! It was exclusive to June’s kit! When I first saw it, I thought… “What a hooooooot!” Hehe!

Okay, back to what I’m really hear for — the challenge! Who’s all going to play along?! Create a layout using that sketch, and you are up to win some a grab bag of Jillibean Soup goodness!

You have until Sunday night to play along! 🙂

Hope everyone has been enjoying all of the fun projects created by our DT so far! Personally, I have been blown away by the talent being shared up in these treetops!

…so what does everyone think of the first kit?! I think it’s totally rockin’. 😉 It’s cute, fresh, and fun. …and it’s versatile too! You’re all going to LOVE it!

Here are just a few of the layouts, I have created with this awesome kit:

…so what do you think?! It’s definitely a cute kit, right!?

Stay tuned because there is more inspiration headed your way.
