The Kinda KraftyMother nature layout is gorgeous! The pictures show how much fun the little girl is having! Love how she fussy cut the butterflies and the flowers with the buttons tied with twine (?) is gorgeous! Love the colors!
The Carnival King layout is soooooooooooo fun! LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVE that big monkey ride! Her use of the camera and the arrows is whimsical and fun and I love the C is for Carnival! Would love to win Carnival King so I can scrap my grandsons' trip to the carnival this summer! Thanks for the chance to win this collection! The patterened paper takes me back to MY childhood and reminds me how excited I was to be there! The noises, the rides, the cotton candy and caramel apples oh my!

LOVE LOVE LOVE Vicki Boutin!!! Her layouts are always so detailed and built up layer by layer. I especially like the FLY layout, the colour are beautiful and it gives me ideas of how to incorporate my Kraft coloured tags and bits from my stash ;) Love your paper Ruby Rock-It Bella! Fundamentals!!!

Great having you here with us today and sharing your super cute layouts Vicki - love your style!!!
Already a fan of both Carnival collections, so apart from loving the colours and patterns, I really like how you have added the pearls and bling. As for the 2nd layout, love the mix of collections (that is one of the most awesome thing about RRBF, is how well they work together) and the design flows with the fun photos. It is great how each time I look at it, I start at the bird, across to the 1st photo, across to the Krafty flowers through the 2nd photo then the butterflies and bling!!! I really struggle with white space and this page has made the perfect balance that makes me think that maybe I can do it :)

What a COOL collection!!! I love Vicki's embellishment clusters!!! She's awesome!

I LOVE that camera! So clever. All the different patterned and coloured papers work really well together in the carnival layout and normally something I wouldn't have thought to put together myself. The second layout is so beautiful and I love those handmade flowers too.

I just love the way Vicki uses the colors and embellishments to make her photos POP - and your eye is drawn to them! So fun! What a great kit! Sadly, no stores in my home state of Nebraska carry Ruby Rock-It, so I would LOVE a chance to win! Thanks!

Thanks for the chance to win! I always love Vicki's creations.

With Vicki, I always love her layers and how she composes a layout - her graphic designer eye really knows how to make a page pop! With these in particular, I love how she combined the Kinda Krafty and Mother Nature lines. The kraft accents really ground the prettiness of the mother nature. Gorgeous! All three lines :)

On the 1st LO, I like how Vicki used the "C is for Carnival" as a banner. On the 2nd, I like how the components are linked together, guiding your eye thru the LO.
