Summer Blogging

I can't believe how hard it is to keep up with a blog in the summer! As soon as I get one done, it's like it's time for another one.

We are heading to New Hampshire for a wedding Friday so this I have to at least get one up today ;) ;) ;)

LBD July kit is up!

Here is a fun shot of the cool Vintage treasures you get in this kit!!!

You can check it out here and the blog here for inspiration from the designers.

Here are a few things I did with the kit:


I used a mystampBOX stamp in the journaling the (*love*) is s stamp!!! how cute is that??


I used an Anna Griffin punch to make the large circle and Spellbinder's dies for the smaller ones.

I loved this fun bingo card and other vintage treasures from the kit that I used on this layout.


I put the Sass sticker on a wax piece of paper and then ran it through the cuttlebug to emboss it and cut the scallop shape with a Spellbinder die. I also ran the metal embellie through the cuttlebug, too!





have a great week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
