Father's Day Layout

   Saturday I got to sit down and play with my The Wild Hare Kit that came in the mail Friday. Here is what I got in the June petite kit. They did a great job at picking my elements that fit my style. 
   
   I a sketch from Let's Get Sketchy, May 15th reveal. 

   Here is a scrapbook page I created for Father's Day. I love how this looks. Now, I just have to print my Sunday's photos and add it to the page. I will place photos of my dad with me and my brother (two horizontal prints and one vertical print) in the framed area.

I Am Guesting

   I have some exciting news to share. I am going to be guest designing for the month of September over at The Wild Hare Kit Club. 
   This kit club is very unique, their kits are hand-curated. All you have to do is fill out a style profile and they do the rest. 
   Before  Septemeber, I am going to share some projects that I created a petite kit I just order.

Summer Studio

   It is warmer here in Michigan and that means my paper crafting portion of my craft space gets moved to the basement. I am loving this year's setup. 

Here is a little tour. My space takes up a small corner of the basement. 

  I brought down one of the metal shelves that I have upstairs in my studio closet and the Ikea cart. 
 
   This spot is my stamping, die cutting and embossing area. 

  A nice bar height area to work at. 

   This spot table is a perfect spot to do the journaling for layouts.

HB2U Card

   At the moment, I am currently loving minimal cards so stamps can shine. I saw this type of card on Jennifer McGuire blog last night. It is the first time I have did this type of card with the stamp images gets broken up by a matted area. 
 Supplies: cardstock (The Paper Studio and My Color Cardstock), ink (Hero Arts and Momento), stamps (Studio Calico and CAS-ual Fridays), tool (MISTI)

   Here is a closer look at the design, I love that circles lined up. MISTI for the win. 

   Inside I did use another stamp from CAS-ual Fridays birthday set that I used for the HB2U on the front. 

Published

   I got published in the summer issue of Creative Scrapbooker., I am on page 132. I made this card early this year for the call and I am still in love with it. 

   Inside the card, I stamped a birthday sentiment from CAS-ual Fridays. I love stamping the sentiment on to my project once I got the MISTI.  

   The floral pattern paper was black and white and I watercolored the flowers in with watercolor crayons. I love how it gave this paper "Life".  I used the packaging paper to create the envelope seal.
