"Vintage Sunrise" is full of possibilities...

I am having so much fun creating design team layouts & projects with the July Kit from Scrapbook Circle! This kit has some of the fabulous Cosmo Cricket Early Bird pp's along with a little Sassafras thrown in too! & they coordinate so well!


A while back ago I found some Making Memories Flip Frame albums on clearance at Hobby Lobby....at the time, I thought they would make great mini albums for Grandpas & Grandmas. I pulled one out of my stash and decided it would also make a great little "all about me" album. So far, I only have the cover done...but was totally inspired by the very cool Cosmo Cricket Spinner Card "Spin the Bottle" that was included in the July kit!






How fun is this!?! & if you look closely, you will see that the green/white polka dot background is actually packaging from the Making Memories Puffy Alpha! LOVE it when I find something that I can RE-USE!!!






Supplies used from the July Kit:

PP-Cosmo Cricket Early Bird-Cherry Pie
PP-Cosmo Cricket Early Bird-Elements
PP-Sassafras Vintage Yummy-Pleasantly Puzzled
Sassafras Cardstock Stickers-Sweet Treats
Making Memories Puffy Alpha-brown (& packaging !!!)

Now, go & have fun with your Scrapbook Circle kit!!!! Thanks for stopping by...here's wishing you a SAFE & HAPPY JULY 4TH WEEKEND!!!

Cosmo Cricket - Be Still My Heart!

I am in love....

with the July kit! Oh my goodness, this is probably my most favorite kit so far. Everything about it is fantastic! The papers are WOW!!! I love to stitch on my layouts, cards, tags, and well, basically I can :D I have had so much fun with this kit and stitching. Stitching can add so much to a project. You can have a serious single stitch for cards! Jazz it up with a fun zig zag! Or one of my favorite little things to do is to take and do a straight stitch but to do it multiple times around the edges of a layout. The key is not to follow a line. Let it go out of bounds. Let it be a little messy. Let it curve. It gives it such a fantastic element to the layout, and will actually help add to the theme. This layout has some additional embellishments, but make sure and notice the stitching. I also took some sequins and ran an adhesive line, adhered the sequins to it and stitched over it. I hope that the you will try and stitch on one of your projects. Play around with the different stitches and thread colors. If you don't have a sewing machine, then hand stitch. You will love the results :)



I hope that everyone has a fantastic Fourth of July!! Happy Birthday America :D I will see you back next Thursday!

The kit that keeps on giving!

Yes, I am still working with the June kit, Amusement Park! It's such a fun and colourful kit, perfect for summer photos like the one used here. were you lucky enough to get your hands on this kit before it sold out?!

The papers (except the grid paper), the chipboard numbers and the green edge are from the kit. The rest is from my personal stash.


I wanted to show you a close-up of my layout. I added some Diamond Glaze to the "bubbles", I tought it worked great with a pic of my daughter in the pool!


Enjoy your day!
