Each month the ScrapStreet Pit Crew is given the opportunity to work with designer paper and embellishment lines. This month we were given gorgeous papers and embellishments from Cosmo Cricket. Their lines of papers come with a warm feeling, and a bit of nostalgic flair. I found them very easy to work with, and even using one line you can end up with several different looks. Mixing and matching their lines was just an added bonus of a well-designed line. When you buy a set of papers, and it is clearly easy to create beautiful projects with it, you know that company and the designers are on top of what we want and like as artists.

Editor’s
note: Mireille has a wonderful way of
exploring new ways to make layouts pop out
and become true works of art. The ribbon is
truly unique and brings texture and warmth
to a fun layout.

notes:
The yummy textures of the Dutch girl
line just made this layout come together so
easily. The only touch that I added other
than journaling is sanding, to bring just a
bit more texture to the layout. There is so
much to like about Cosmo Cricket…and their
Dutch girl line is by far my favorite line!
The textures in the papers are so rich and
fun! The paper itself is the perfect
weight…and the white core is perfect for
tearing. The naked chipboard is so fun,
“dressed or un-dressed” it is adorable on
any creation. If you haven’t had a chance to
pick up this line, run out and get it…you
will love it!

Journaling: I captured you today just watching all of the simple things going on in the neighborhood! You had such a sweet smile on your face. It made me think of all the simple things that I am missing each day! I hope you always keep your childhood curiosity...and always remember to enjoy life's simple moments. 8/07

Notes: I was introduced to Cosmo Cricket
earlier this year and, ever since, I haven't
been able to get enough the products! I find
I can use Cosmo Cricket for so many
projects, themes and subjects - versatility
is one of its most attractive attributes. In
this case, the story to tell was written in
my kids' faces: I was able to use Cosmo
Cricket's colors, patterns, and sticker and
rub-on words to enhance the story, without
detracting from the photos themselves. It's
just so easy to work with!
