SSZ - June Kit Reveal

This month's ScrapShotz kit is mostly BoBunny's "Hello Sunshine" - a bright colourful summery line with a flower and bee theme. 

Here are the layouts (the 3 cards aren't shown) that I came up with.

This first one is DH, Mom and Dad on our ATV in 2003.


Our friend was in town to celebrate his 51st birthday with friends and family - 2007. This layout is based on a sketch from Big Picture Classes - It Takes Two.


Here I am at age 3.


The PG5 Mascot. It actually sings and dances!

Sea Lions - 2011

Based on Big Picture Classes - It Takes Two - Week 3 Sketch 1, this layout uses MAMBI patterned paper.  The alphas are Tim Holtz grungeboard, inked and glazed. 

Here we are swimming with the sea lions in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. So much fun!



Graceland 2005

Based on Big Picture Classes -  It Takes Two - Week 3 Sketch 3, photos of Graceland.

Background paper is BoBunny and all the Elvis embellishments (except ribbon border on the bottom) is EK Success. 



Princess - 2011

Based on Big Picture Classes -  It Takes Two - Week 3 Sketch 4, this is my great-niece last Christmas. She is dressed up in the princess costume she received for Christmas.

A combination of MAMBI and K&Company.  The large crown on the right page actually lights up!

Three layouts done at the Close to My Heart - Workshop on the Go this past Sunday.......well, two done at the workshop and the last one finished at home....

The first one is of the beaches in and around Albufeira, Portugal in 2007.




This layout is all about the Marine Science Center in Ponce Inlet, Florida this March.
