Mini Kit Madness
September 16, 2010I am so loving this month’s mini kit. I’m a brown, earthy girl … so this kit is right up my alley. It’s the prefect kit for transitioning into fall and cooler weather!
Check out the adorable (seriously adorable) layouts Kelly Hansen created with this kit. Love ‘em.

March Layouts: Mara
March 8, 2010March has been a crazy month. Our Main Kit is full of lots of yummy new goodies that were released at CHA … which means we’ve been waiting on all these goodies to arrive. Some of the papers didn’t arrive until last week, so our design team was late in getting their kits. However, these ladies don’t disappoint. As soon as they got their kits, they went to work and have created some awesome layouts with the March 2010 Main Kit.
Here’s a look at some of the layouts Mara created. Don’t you just love the little banners she used on the her pages?
Kits ship on Wednesday … so if you haven’t ordered yours yet, you still have time. Start shopping now!
February Projects
February 12, 2010Since the February Kits are somewhere between us and you … I thought I’d share some fun layouts created using the February 2010 Main Kit.
A big thanks to Grace Tolman for helping us out and creating some awesome layouts this month. I’ll be posting her mini-book (as well as more layouts) some time next week, so make sure you check back. If you haven’t been to Grace’s blog, check it out. She is super talented. And don’t be surprised when you see her layouts in tons of magazines (Creating Keepsakes and Scrapbooking Trends to name a few). This girl is all over and so worth checking out.
"Bowling Baby" by Grace Tolman
Bowling Baby
I love the combos of green and pink. It screams girl to me so that’s what I used to make this page about my daughter in her first bowling experience.
I had a few pictures to scrap but I still made room for the title, enough journaling spot and spot embellishments.
I used the Pink Paislee stickers as part of my title and hand wrote the rest. I also created a visual triangle between the white on the journaling block, the sticker embellishment and rub-on butterfly.

Curly Q
I love this picture of my daughter. It just so happened to fit the bill of the theme of my page which is all about her curly hair.
I used the lovely shaped paper from Fancy pants. I added some subtle hearts on the paper by using the heart lace cardstock as a mask and spraying glimmer mist on the paper. It’s subtle but I love the added effect of it.
I used the flowers from one of the pattern papers and used them as accents. I added the flower trims here too. One as a trim and another cut out to make separate accents. The ticket stub was added here too.
Summer Fun
June 9, 2009
- A Backyard Roasting Party by Grace
Do you have a lot of summer pictures to scrap. With summer in full swing, I’m sure you are collecting tons of pics featuring beach time, backyard BBQs and lazy summer naps. The colors in the June Crazy Daisy main kit scream summer.
Grace’s layout “Backyard Roasting Party” is one of those layouts I’m talking about – a family summer moment caught on film. How did she tell her summer story? Here’s a little background on what went into creating the layout:
“This layout’s theme was all about fun since it showcases pictures of an everyday ‘fun’ family moment. I used a lot of reds here to play up the ‘fire’ in the picture and story. I loved the chipboard shape and was the perfect ‘flame’ accent for the layout. I also created a visual triangle between the flames, red pattern paper which had my title and journaling and the canvas ‘play’ accent. “
What’s your favorite summer moment? What are you looking forward to scrapping the most now that summer is upon us? Leave us a comment and tell us what summer story you want to capture and save for all time.
A card creation
June 8, 2009
Too busy to scrapbook, then why not make a card or two? I personally love getting snail mail. Every time I go to my mailbox, I’m hoping for some real mail, instead of just bills. If I were to get a handmade card in the mail I’d really feel special.
Trace's card
Need a little help getting started with your card making? Well, Trace created a card using some scraps from this month’s kit. Here’s what she had to say about the the card she made:
“I made a card from the kit using my paper scraps and some of the leftover embellishments. The title of this card is ’everyday love.’ I applied the stitched letter rub-ons onto the paper that includes the days of the week. I stapled the flower onto a chipboard flower and then attached it to the card.”
Make a card with some of the supplies from you kit and send us a picture so when can see what you did. Email us info@crazydaisykits.com.
Check out this mini-book

A look at the cover of Grace's mini-book
Our design team member Grace worked her magic on this month’s mini-book. Check out what she’s done. Interested in knowing how Grace came up with the idea for the mini-book and a little of what went into creating it? Then read on.
“The theme of the book was inspired by the ‘notes’ sheets in the kit. I cut out each of the titles of these sheets and used them as tabs for my ‘planner’ book.
I didn’t decorate the front that much since it had the pretty bird and floral pattern on it already. I did add a few pebbles to the top to create some balance.
I decorated the first page with pattern paper, border trims and flower. I used the leftover canvas sheet to write a little title.
To decorate the rest of the pages, I punched out circles from the pattern paper, cut them in half and adhere them on the edges. This gave the white pages some life and yet left room for whatever I have to write on there.
For the back, I created a monogrammed block by covering one of the chipboard blocks with pattern paper and adding my initial in the middle.”

One AWESOME mini-book
May 13, 2009Guest designer extraordinaire, Miss Kim, has made the best mini-book ever using this month’s (May 2009) main kit. It’s also quite timely as it’s a tribute to her mother.
Check it out. And stay tuned for more samples/ideas from Kim as the month goes on. To see more photos from this particular project, visit our gallery or Kim’s personal blog.
The March Add-on kit
March 29, 2009ROCKS!!! That’s right, the March 2009 Add-on kit rocks. I so love it and I love some of the pages I have made with it.
Case in point: Last night I finished up the cutest … I mean cutest … two page spread with the March Add-on kit. A few weeks back we spent a day at the zoo with my moms’ club and I wanted to scrap the photos of my daughter feeding the giraffes. The colors were perfect for the photos, as were all the embellishments. My husband tells me these are his favorite pages (at least of those I’ve done in the last month)! How’s that for good feedback?
Do you know what the best part of being one half of Crazy Daisy is? Scrapping. Since we launched this site and the club, I’ve spent so much more time actually scrappin’ and creating. I’m so excited to have new pages to display and each night I look forward to pulling out my supplies and getting to work. I hope that Crazy Daisy can and will inspire you all to do the same!
Have a wonderful Sunday evening,
Kimberly
