Five layouts and a tag (look for the tag later this week) this month with the Little Black Dress February Kit: Life's A Game.
I got out my Quickutz diecutting tool....yes, I said Quickutz...remember those? It's the original blue one, not even a Squeeze. Anyway....I used the photo corner die for the chevron look on the "rays". Love the colors with the black and white photo.

Look for a tutorial and hopefully a cutting file regarding this next layout on the Little Black Dress blog later this month. I'm obsessed with that quilted star/flower shape I created. I'll show you my inspiration behind that embellishment in the tutorial too. I want to put them on everything!

Played along on the Studio Calico blog last week and completed this challenge. I had actually planned on doing this layout anyway this month, so it was simply perfect timing.

I created this 3-D star in the Silhouette Software this month too. Very simple to do--just put some score lines through a star shape.

I cut around the negative star shape from the above layout for the stars on the below layout. I always challenge myself to use a few scraps and the negative shapes when using my Silhouette or punches. It really allows you to stretch a kit and get the most out of it. Loving the font Blackout right now.
