July Sketch for K&P

So, I'm going to be doing a monthly sketch for My Kits and Pieces (K&P).  They have two kits this month...

Oh Beautiful

0141

The "Oh Beautiful" kit has this fabulous star frame stamp of mine:

ActualStamp-StarFrame

Bask

0061

I did a big post here with three layouts using this fabulous kit! So far, I've done five layouts with this kit and I've got lots more stuff left.  It's really good value for $18!

And without any further ado, here is my sketch for this month:

And here is my layout:

These are ancient photos of a trip my husband and I took to Victoria with his family.  If you create something from the sketch, I hope you'll send me an e-mail or leave me a comment here, because I'd love to see it!

Here's another one using the Bask kit and a photo from that trip:

On both layouts, I cut the flowers from a piece of Fancy Pants paper and then used a lot of foam adhesive to create some fun dimension and layers.

Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you for sharing. I am excited the DT announcement is next week!

Cool stamp! Your layouts are beautiful!

Great layouts. Love the first set of papers.

You post so many great things to your blog space, thank you for sharing. The sketch is a fun one, can see how to use that in a thousand different ways. That star framed stamp is gorgeous, serious stamp envy moment.

Hey Julie~
That's a neat sketch. I'm going to try it out this weekend if I get some time. Cool stamp too =)

Photo A Day 2008

  • 06.15.08
    My goal is to take one photo a day, every day for 366 days (it's a leap year). The only rule is that I cannot edit the photos after taking them. No cropping, no playing with the levels. They are what they are. Click on any image to see a larger 4x6 view rather than the small square preview view and to read about what the image is.
