Try It Tuesday~scrapbooking fun!

 Hi guys!!  These are last months layouts that I hadn't posted on my blog yet.  These are using pattern papers by Elle's Studio called Cameron.  I did six layouts with this collection.   Added in JBS  also, the colors match so well..
Loved the yellow and blue tones in this one.  I ended up splattering some dark blue water color on the layout, going up one side.  Have you ever tried that?  Maybe it is time:):) 
Fun technique and I love the look!!!

This layout, I'm using the same paper pack by Elle's Studio and stamped my grandson's name and date of the layout, with the Cameron/acrylic stamp set.  I have been stamping more and more on my pages.  Love using the stamps to make embellishments and for lettering.  Try It!!! That is what
 is for, to encourage you to try new things and me too:):)

*****************************************

Couldn't leave with out sharing this  way cool powder jar, I got on a recent junkin' trip.  I loved it~it was hard to part with, but my Sis will take good care of it!!

Craft Crossing and Bo Bunny challenge for July!

Since we are on the subject of the Bo Bunny Challenges for the retail store, this is the one I did for July.  We have not heard about August yet, so I'm not sure what is going on.  You can find out all about this program HERE.

One of the requirements is, you have to use only what comes in the kit.  I added buttons on this one:):). Stickers and paper were all that came in the July kit (just wasn't enough).  I do this through my local craft store which is Craft Crossing in Gonzales, Texas. 

Don't you love that picture!!! Just happened up on this:):)
Went back in the house and got my camera.  One of those country moments:):)
Have a great weekend~
See ya soon~

And my news has been announced ~check it out HERE.
Can't wait to start creating with Clear Scraps!!!!
