Jubilant June Freebie

Posted on by

Yesterday, I showed you a new kit by Queen Wild Scraps.

Today, I have a layout to share using it. Journaling reads: “Our American Express Costco credit card gives it’s rewards as a check to Costco. This year, we decided to buy this Montalban 3 Bike Trailer with Jogger Kit, along with some groceries and even a little cash. It was almost like getting it for free. Janette and Jessica thought it was great fun to go for a ride hooked up to my bicycle. It’s definitely a work-out pulling them and the trailer, a combined weight of approximately 92 pounds.”

Jubilant June

Posted on by

Jubilant June is releasing today!!! It is the latest in Queen Wild Scraps’ monthly series. The colors are fabulous! They definitely make me think summer. All the fun outdoor elements are perfect to scrap all the outdoor fun you’re having this month. And don’t forget about the Dads. There’s a Father’s Day tag and a grill, two things that frequently go hand in hand. Although in my house, I do the grilling. And sadly, I learned something recently about grilling chicken leg quarters (or other bone-in, skin-on chicken) that I wish I had known earlier. Make sure you put tin foil under them or use a foil pan as the fat has a tendency to drip and cause flares. My whole grill was in flames and James had to use the fire extinguisher.

Time Sweet Time

Posted on by

It’s Grab A Byte time over at Scrapbookbytes. The color scheme this month is fabulous. Word Art World has five pieces available for $1 each. The elements have a lot of fun vintage pieces. The first papers has pattern papers and the second papers some more solid type papers as well as papers that pull in the neutral blacks and whites. The word art is fun and is all about taking the time to smell the roses, so to speak.waw_timesweettime_el

There is also a set of Chalk Signs, but I didn’t use it.

I have a layout to share that uses all the fun vintage elements, like the chandelier, the chair, and the pitcher. The photos are from when James and I stayed at the Garden View Bed and Breakfast in Medina, NY.

First on the Clip Show is 5 Shades of Gray, Add On and Li’l Black Dress Alpha. There are 41 glittery, shiny and classic elements inside this kit. The 14 patterned papers, 5 glitter papers and 5 solid papers are a perfect complement to the elements and they will make your LOs exude class. As a bonus with purchase, the LBD (Li’l Black Dress) alpha is included for free, a $2.99 value. You can also pickup the elegant mini 5 Shades of Gray Add-On.

Next up is Whisper, Whisper Reverse Papers Add on, Card stock and Alpha. Soft and delicate. Vintage. Those are words Dawna used to describe this kit. If you like the romantic look, have some photos of the kids dressed up in their Easter finest, or know a sweet newborn baby, you need this kit. Outdoor wedding season is coming up. This kit would be perfect for something like that!

The next kit is Fresh As A Daisy. Don’t the beautiful greens of this kit remind you of the first little sprouts poking through the dirt, the trees leafing out, grass coming back to life, and just an overall freshness. This kit has 42 elements including plenty of daisies and there are even an adorable little girl and boy gnome to watch over your LOs. With gorgeous papers are so fresh and outdoorsy. You will have trouble deciding which ones you want to use first.

Also included is a cute alpha with just a hint of glitter that will remind you of the sunlight glinting off the water. It has a full upper and lower case alpha, the numbers 0-9 and some punctuation.
