The Bits N Pieces color palette this month was so soft and pretty and the theme was Winter, perfect for January.

Hues: Silver Celebration

Posted on December 28, 2014 by Jennifer

Connie Prince’s newest Hues collection is called Silver Celebration. It is perfect for monochromatic layouts. You can pick it and the nine coordinating add-ons up at Scrapbookbytes, Gotta Pixel, Gingerscraps or Go Digital.

The kit kinda screamed “over the hill” to me, so I decided to scrap a page from my Mom’s 50th Surprise Party. The lighting wasn’t quite right in the larger photo, so I had to lighten it up and then it looked a little grainy, but turning it black and white fixed that. I like how the smaller photo is the only pop of color. I really love how happy my Mom looks in that picture.

Don’t forget to pick up the Christmas Add-on for this kit as well.

I really love this kit. In fact, I love it so much, I made three layouts this week using it. First up is a commemorative type page of one of my favorite teachers from high school. Journaling reads: Frau Hayes was my German teacher 10th through 12th grade. She was one of my absolute favorite teachers. I loved her class. She made learning a new language fun and interesting. The cultural aspects of German class were a lot of fun too. We prepared German food and then took turns being the waiter or the restaurant patron, while only speaking German. It was an opportunity to try food like steak tartar. I loved participating in German compeition, espcially Pass Auf, a team trivia type event. Our practices outside of school were held at Frau Hayes’ house. She had the most amazing cuckoo clock. At Christmas, we always would search for the pickle ornament on her tree. I kept in touch after graduation and even invited her to my bridal shower.
