May's kits, My Favorite and the Sugar and Spice add-on really had a feminine feel to them. However, not having lots of girlyness to scrap this month, I had to look past what I saw first to see that this is one super versatile kit!
The first layout I made was an anthology of this years nail polish colors and designs. How much more girly can you get?! I love how the soft pinks and yellows textureized by that awesome ribbon really allowed me to create a very feminine page.
Even the font I used for my title adds to the femininity of this project.
Now, on the flip side, I wanted to create a 'Random Facts' page about my hubby. He's....uh, ......not so much about frills! (and can you believe this is the first time I've done the random facts thing?! Where have I been hiding anyway??)
The kit includes some wonderful pieces that complement masculinity very well. The stars paper, for one, in blue and black created a perfect place to begin my page
I selectively cut a few of the pieces of tape from the Maggie Holmes Washi paper . And those metal Basic Grey star studs were the perfect accent to my mainly project.
Even the Chipboard pieces which had a lot of feminine shapes and colors, found a place on my page via the small blue frame and the negative of the arrow image.
I colored the corrugated 'potty man' red by just a swipe of ink from my favorite red ink pad.
The lesson is that Scrapbook Circle kits always offer enough versatility to create whatever kind of layout you need them too. I hope you'll share with us some unexpected ways that you used supplies which initially had a specific feel to create a completely different look. The place to share is our Facebook page. Can't wait to see what you've created!
Very hard for me to do both masculine and feminine from one kit...kudos to you. BTW, I have become obsessed with nail polish.
