Here's what I created with this stunning Summer themed kit....

"Happy"

Wow! Such a striking Summer vibes page! 
I couldn't resist creating with all the colors - they look so incredible together!

Let's take a closer look at this messy, fun page....


So much to love about The June Color Kitz! 

I started my layout by painting up that gorgeous sun design with Sunset Strip Vibez, Orange Sherbert Shimmerz & Sunkissed Inklingz onto some smooth watercolor paper. Once dry, I trimmed apart all the sections, & arranged them onto my white cardstock base. I distressed each segment, & then messily machine stitched into place. 


I love how effective this sun burst looks! 
Those colors really are somethin'!

Next, I painted up my ocean with Pool Me Closer Shimmerz, applied the new waves texture stencil (included in the June Color Kitz) and painted in some Boogie Boardin' Blue Creameez. I also added in some royal blue stamping ink with the stencil too! This really added definition & interest to my waves.


I layered my darling boy's sweet photo onto a few sheets of tissue wrap, & some ephemera pieces before tucking in & adorning his framed photo with the fabulous Summer Vibez Dotz. Super cool!


I used a few labels from Paige Evan's Bloom collection to 'tell my story' and add a bit of journaling to my layout. I used the warmer tones with the sun rays, and the cool blues through the ocean. I also adhered the blue ones in a wavy fashion to mimic the Boogie Boardin' Blue stenciling. Simple, but so effective! 




For finishing touches, I used the Minty Meadow sequins to complete my Summer fun page! The teal sequins matched beautifully with the ocean  & all the warmer tone sequins coordinated with the sunshine! Love it! 

Please watch my process video of how this layout came together HERE
