I finally opened up my kit on Wednesday to see what I could come up with. I decided to use Outdoor Denim cardstock as my page base and accents just to offset the bright Year>>Noted papers. I'm quite pleased! I'm saving the Kraft mini book for another project.

This is the last page for my 2014 album and I've chosen my Australian Citizenship as my highlight of the year.

Pardon the horrible quality. It's been rainy and this was taken inside. You get the idea!

I used this sketch from Scrapbook Generation as it had a nice easy to do feel and required minimal cutting! The papers in Year>>Noted are printed in 4x6 blocks which made this extremely easy to do. Plus, I liked the banner below the photo in the sketch and the kit has a banner in the stampset! Once I get my hands on a few more inks, I'll add the banner.

I did this page as my title page for 2015. It was relatively easy to complete, again with minimal cutting. :)

As you can probably guess, this is my theme for 2015 "This year's adventures in family, faith, and friends". I'm leaving photos off this page and keeping it just papers, stamps, and embellishments. Again, I used a sketch from Scrapbook Generation and it had a banner theme that just screamed "use with Year>>Noted"! I used the stamps in the kit to make my own arrow zipstrip.

I'm quite happy with how these pages came out, and even better I still have a ton of scraps and full sheets of paper and cardstock left over to make quick highlight pages through the year. All this from one kit that cost me $15 and included a My Creations™ Kraft Mini Book (which retails for $15)!

This super cute and versatile kit is only available for the month of January, and you've only got a week left before it runs out. Don't miss out!
