Lake Life is a Winner!

  Sadly, the last Close to My Heart paper pack is done and ready for class on Saturday, July 20th.  Gather your vacation photos as this paper pack is perfect for any scenes with water. Lake Life #1 layout is all about a trip last fall to Mount Dora.  My son participated in a bike race, and they did some 'sightseeing' on the second day.  My grandson Luke's strange photos are from the 'vblog' post he was making.  Not sure if he ever posted it, though. Lake Life layout #2 features my niece and her family on an annual trip to Lake Chautauqua.   Even though it was an overcast day, it sure looked like Emmy had fun! Any day is a good day for eating pizza! Lake Life #3  is the last layout of the paper pack and are a few more pictures of my son's trip to Mount Dora.  They looked like they had a exciting weekend!

June's Selection for Paper Pumpkin is SO Sweet

This month's Paper Pumpkin is Life is Sweet  and feature the new In Colors for 2024 -2026.  Welcome the Colors of Summer Splash, Shy Shamrock, Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and petunia Pop. I had the perfect pictures for my layout and even though there are not any pictures of cherries, lemons or peaches, it created a layout that has quickly become one of my favorites. I did create three of the cards as designed in the kit, but I also make three of my own designs. The top card is an accordion file card, which is very popular right now on the craft sites.  I did tweek it a bit to make it my own. The two at the bottom are Rachel Tessman's designs, and they fit perfectly with the theme of this month's set. Remember tomorrow is the last day this month to sign up for the August paper Pumpkin kit and it is all about Happy Birthday and CAKE!  I did see a sneak peek of one of the cards and you will want this kit for sure.
