Hey guys! It's midnight on the 28th and that means a new Studio Calico kit reveal!
I'm really loving this month. I had more fun than I've had scrapping in a LONG time and I attribute that to loving what April put together for June. :)
This month I got
So Cal (obviously!)
And here's what I came up with:
18 mos.
Made using:
I loved this Pink Paislee paper the moment I set eyes on it:
I knew I had to use it as the focus as a page.I hand cut four of the zig zags and layered them to make diamonds.
I filled in the diamonds with the SC pp from this month.
The photo block is layered on 2 sheets of vellum. I just love this page and it makes me so ridiculously happy! I'm really pleased with the way the journaling turned out,too.
But
Made using:
This photo of the girls is one of my all time favorites. I enlarged it and printed it and didn't want to cover much of it with embellishments.
I had the idea to make this little "clothesline" out of twine and secure the ends with washi tape. I cut hearts from the vellum, and hung labels,die cuts,buttons,and sequins from the clothesline.
I adore the MME "elated,smile,etc" tag and I'm so glad I figured out a way to use it.
The adhesive lace from Malibu is awesome and I had a blast using it. It is a BIG roll...lots of bang for your buck!
If You Were Here
Made using:
He is going to KILL me for using this photo of him in my sunglasses. HAHAHA. I don't care. I think he looks hot even if he was wearing lady glasses.
I cut the letters from the SC patterned paper and "painted them" using Mister Huey's in Dewey (mixed with some water).
I really like the twine/button/butterfly embellishment clusters.
Yes, I use butterflies on "man pages". Why not? :)
Thank You
Made using:
I think this might be my favorite layout this month.
Did I mention how much I loved that adhesive lace? :)
I'm not really into hexagons (or stamps-HA!) but I actually really liked this stamp set.
Not much to explain about this one!
It was so nice to really click with a kit again. I've missed that feeling of loving what I'm making.
Sometimes you guys ask what I loved most for the month. I have to say that (even though Venice Beach was the DT favorite) I enjoyed using Malibu the most.
It's the add-on that is most "me" this month, I suppose.
See you later, thanks for stopping by!
xoxo
