Scrapstreet June issue

Ok as I can't get to anything on my PC still I thought I'd share projects from Junes Scrapstreet Ezine. I had a few projects in this one, some I submitted, some requested, some I was approached for, and one I wrote the article for.

This first layout was a cover finalist, didn't make the cover but I'm happy with it! And as it was a wedding issue I submitted a digital layout too, using some of the same pics.

Paper: Imagination Project, Chloes Closet, Cardstock: Bazzill, Alphabet: (bride) Making Memories velvet, Stamp: Autumn Leaves, Journaling stamps: Pen: Zig Millennium, Other: stitching.

Digital Kit: beautiful you papers and embellishment pack, sketch #11 Shelle Pukas designs (www.shellepukasdesigns.com), Alpha: shabby princess alpha (www.shabbyprincess.com).

I joined in the Weekend Crop fun in May and made a card from the Saturday night sketch. Used some old supplies which is always good. Anyway some of the crop weekend challenges you can submit (the lift challenge and sketch challenges for example) and I figured what the heck, and YAY it got picked up! You can see the sketch HERE

Paper: Christina Cole(Provocraft), Embellishement: Christina Cole(Provocraft), Ribbon Tape: Heidi Swapp, Rub-on: Die cuts with a View.

May brought some changes at Scrapstreet, with the new team members on their second month one of the existing team left and I offered to do her column, the card corner. Regular blog readers will know I LOVE cards! So I was delighted to fill in short notice! The theme was wedding and all things related to it. Loved the submissions, so hard to pick sometimes! Anyway I made this invite for the article, which you can find HERE.

Invites: one heart... one mind, Rub-ons: one heart... one mind, Ink: Around the Block.

The June issue saw the start of Pet Park, the new pet column by Spink. When she got the go ahead for the column she emailed me immediately requesting this layout. She'd seen it in the gallery, as I did it for the Scrapstreet Star contest and she loved it! Love it when that happens!

Supplies: Patterned paper: Crate, Cardstock: Die Cuts with a View, Chipboard alphabet: Heidi Swapp, Stamp: Boxer Scrapbooks.

June was the start of my Sponsor projects for Scrapstreet, and the sponsor was Imagination Project! Anyone that knows me knows I LOVE IP! Well I got to play with Circus Rose.

Supplies: Papers/Stickers: Imagination Project.

I have to say that initially this paper was difficult for me, wasn't sure what to do with it. I LOVED the paper but asymmetrical stuff just isn't my style, but after playing with it, I LOVE the layout!

Supplies: Papers/Stickers: Imagination Project, Alphabet: Heidi Swapp, Stamp: Autumn Leaves, Pen: Zig.

June saw the start of my Hybrid Column! I am so excited to be doing my own column! Anyway Junes column is all about computer journaling, such an easy way to add computer techniques to a paper layout. Looking forward to sharing LOTS more information in the future!

Supplies: Paper: Basic Grey, Cardstock: Bazzill, Rub-ons: SEI, Making Memories, alphabet stickers: American Crafts, Font: Arial.

As always we had a free digital kit and this issue was White Wedding by Dora and Spink. Fun kit, with little color, and lots of room for you to add your own flair! Loved all the swirls in this one!

Our assignment naturally was a Wedding layout! I have to say I loved the papers and elements in the kit, but the alpha really was divine! My layout was simple looking but involved lots of digital techniques

Supplies: Digital Kit: White Wedding by Dora Phillips and Michelle "Spink" Boeckermann for ScrapStreet.com, Pink paper: Shelle Pukas Beautiful You kit, Font: SP Wonderful Wendy, Calligraph 421 BT; stitching my own design.

And so we begin again with the July issue! Another bumper issue! I have my hybrid column up "think before you print!" And the digital section just gets better and better! I also have to shout out to my buddy Lucy Chesna, as the sketches we did back in May, well one of them was featured in the July issue along with some samples! So fun to see them being used!

As always there is a free kit and this month is totally patriotic with Fiesta Fourth! Love those bling circles! Such a fun kit! And FREE! Go snag it!
