Bella Blvd Studio Blog: Kiss Me Collection

February is the month of love, which means it's the perfect time to break out our Kiss Me collection for some love themed projects! Today we are sharing some layouts and cards from our Design Team, all featuring this colorful and fun collection.

“Love You Baby Girl”, by Becki Adams.

This is the perfect collection for “girly” projects I love all the shades of pink complemented by the shades of blue. I have so many photos of my adorable niece I couldn’t resist putting some of the Kiss Me collection to good use. I love how the large journaling card made the perfect base for my large title.

Supplies:
Kiss Me: Flutter, Love Notes, Cute Cuts, True Love, Alpha+Bits Stickers; High Five Alpha Stickers: Piggy Punch; Button Market: Hot Pink Flowers; Designer Tapes: Punch Chevron, Piggy Pink Stripe; Sienna Chipboard Alphabets: Punch; Crochet Flowers: Juniper

“Lil Girl”, by Jaclyn Rench.

I'm in love with the navy and pink color combo that's so prominent in the Kiss Me collection! I knew with its feminine touches and great color scheme it would pair great with some pictures of my baby girl in her pink tee and blue jeans. The floral border strip helped me to ground my title, and allowed for another excuse to tie in lots and lots of additional Bella floral elements.

Supplies:
Kiss Me: Bouquet Kiss, Flutter, Borders & Cute Cuts, Alpha+Bits Stickers; Baby Girl: Chipboard Icons; Blue High Five Alphabets; Designer Tape: Punch Chevron; Button Market: Blues; Crochet Flowers: Juniper

“2 Friends”, by Malika Kelly.

The Kiss Me collection is great for any kind of love! These pictures of my daughter and a friend seemed to work perfectly. I stacked a couple 3x4 card shaped papers in different patterns behind my photos to act as mats. I then cut out a big 2 on a 3x4 card with my Cameo and used it as part of my title. The navy blue border was made with a circle punch and then some stitching on top. Two of Bella Blvd's fabulous new feathers were tucked behind my 2 card to represent the two friends.

Supplies:
Kiss Me: Love Notes, Flutter, Bouquet Kisses, True Love, Borders & Cute Cuts, Alpha+Bits Stickers, Just Write Journaling Stickers; Engaged At Last: Bachelorette Party; Sand & Surf: Alpha+Bits Stickers; Freestyle Sophisticates: Freestyle Cotton Candy; Crochet Flowers: Poppy; Feathers: Cotton Candy, Oyster

“I love you” card, by Carina Lindholm.

Sometimes I like to make cards by just using patterned papers. You can make gorgeous cards by just cutting out shapes and details from papers. On this card I cut out all the clouds from the Borders/Cute cuts sheet. I also cut out a few pennant shapes to ad to my card. To make the scallop border around my card I used decorative scissors.

Supplies:
Kiss me: Flutter, Borders, Cute cuts; Sophisticates: Sprinkles & Lace Surf n Turf

“Cupcake” card, by Laurie Schmidlin.

To me, the fun pastels combined with brighter hues is so classic Bella! This card combines all of that, plus many of my favorite Bella embellishments - Ciao Chip chipboard pieces, Flags, Buttons, and Sentiment Stickers. For a little extra fun, I added some chunky glitter around the edge of the cupcake!

Supplies:
Sophisticates: Miniatures Card Sentiment; Ciao Chip Elements: Stars & Hearts; Birthday Girl: Sugar Rush, Just Write Journaling Stickers, Cute Cuts: Flags: Birthday Girl 1; Button Market: Aqua Flowers

“I Only Have Eyes For You” card, by Shellye McDaniel.

Starting with a lacy embossed card, I began layering the front with a regal blue paper topped with a journaling strip sticker. I cut the adorable glasses from the Cute Cuts paper and attached it with foam dots. A couple of cut leaves and a pink button were added to one side of the glasses, as well as letter stickers spelling: LOVE. To the bottom a border of pink striped tape and scallop sticker were added, followed by some machine and hand-stitching. Small drops of pearls from my stash were added to a few of the flower centers. If you fancy, one of the cute mustaches or kissy lips could be added under the glasses too!

Supplies:
Kiss Me: Just Write Journaling Stickers, Borders & Cute Cuts, Alpha+Bits Stickers; Sophisticates: Sprinkles & Lace Surf 'N Turf; High Five Alpha Stickers: Piggy-Punch; Designer Tape: Piggy Stripe; Button Market: Hot Pink Flowers

“He & She” card, by Kathy Martin.

With Valentine’s Day coming up, it’s the perfect time to make some Kiss Me collection Valentine cards. For this card I added some mixed media items; a glassine bag, felt die cut heart, wood clothespin and craft string. I love the texture all the layers create.

Supplies:
Kiss Me: Flutter, True Love, Alpha+Bits Stickers, Just Write Journaling Stickers; High Five Alphabet Stickers: Piggy Punch; Button Market: Pink Flowers; Miniatures Stickers: Card Sentiments, Sunshine & Happiness

This is such a pretty line! The projects are gorgeous! Tell me about the doily in Lil Girl. It's beautiful. Was it bought? Made? Part of the collection? I love it!

Hi Denise! The doily was made using white cardstock and a punch from Martha Stewart. It creates a lot of texture layered under the flowers, doesn't it?
