It's the 1st...

so I'm going to show you the AWESOME Back Porch Memories kits for the month!
The gorgeous solo features BG June Bug...fun papers for sure!


The medley features BG Lemonade, new Three Bugs, and OA Cherry Hill!


and just look at these stamps!!!!


My early layout for the month is one of Collin at a local festival which features his favorite ride...the race cars! Yeah, cuz you know they go really FAST...lol Funny that every one kept asking who the girl was in the photo and I have to keep saying...I don't know, just a passenger LOL I even embossed using this month's stamps...woo hoo! The pendants are cut with a GSD file from Quickutz. I've been trying to use the Silhouette more often...trying! My journaling is under the second pendant where I layered two pendants together to lift for the journaling.


Then I have a color combo challenge going on for the month of August at BPM using some of my favorite summer colors. Come check out all the challenges and play along to be entered for a great prize from Paula!



Here's my layout using BG Lime Rickey -- love that paper!! I stitched around the edges, but it's hard to see with the white thread. I cut the circle border and the frame using QK digital files.


And, lastly, I leave you with a layout I created of my little nephew, Gavin, using Pink Paislee papers and a bit of Crate Paper embellies.


I think that's it for now. We're off to the beach today if I ever get off this computer and finish gathering everything up. Wishing you all a happy scrappy day!!
