010118 January CKC Kit Reveal



I love January. I love clearing away all the glory of the Christmas season. 
I look forward to a quiet month tucked away in my happy scrappy place.

Please welcome our January Guest Designer, one of our regulars, Julie
You'll have a chance this month to get to know her even better.

On to our inspiration kit chosen by the lovely Lisa:

Cocoa Daisy November 2017 Fair Isle Main Kit
I thought this was a very interesting mix. 
Although obviously seasonal there is still a kind of artsy tropical vibe to it. 
Let's check out the Magic Blue Box!


I began (as usual) with the papers...

Organic shapes, plaid, subtle print, green organic,
snowflake, rows of cars, more snowflakes, stripe...

I actually had some excellent matches, but I have my December 
Daily to do yet & wanted something a tad more out of the box.

Webster’s Pages/Nest “Tickled”, Shimelle/Go Now Go “City”, Dear Lizzy 2012, Kaisercraft /Secret Bird Society “Mystery”, Kaisercraft /Fine & Sunny “Avenue”, snowflake washi stand-ins , unknown

Here's the full Fresh Start kit:



I've tossed in a couple of stamp sets & other goodies from Felicity Jane.


Here's the hop list - don't miss a stop!
Head straight to Lori HERE.


Hope your new year is merry & bright!
Thanks for stopping by!

  3. "A quiet month tucked away in my happy scrappy place" sounds like an absolutely perfect goal for January, and I think you'll have a great time there using this kit! I love the way you interpreted the inspiration with your December Daily in mind and that Kaisercraft bird/floral paper is particularly lovely.
