August

Hi friends. So sorry for my delay in updating this blog! I'm so sorry it hasn't been every week like I committed to!

My friend decided in August to start doing monthly theme colors for all projects, like a presenter at convention does. She picked the color scheme and I followed her. She picked: Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, I added accents of Tempting Turquoise and Basic gray. It was interesting how this combo was very feminine, but yet also funky and cool. I also made a scrapbook page and another card to display, but the scrapbook wasn't anything exciting, so I decided not to show it. So the card below is a total case from another one I fell in love with. Unfortunately I don't know who I got it from, so I can't give proper credit...so sorry.
products are all Stampin up. Stamp set: Extreme Elements, Extreme skateboard, Teeny Tiny Wishes. I used the star punch with a tempting turquoise brad for a little bunch of turq. Love this card.

We made these little bookmarks for August club. It seemed appropriate since school was starting and there would be lots of reading. I am so in love with this Aviary set!
Rich Razzleberry card stock, Rich Razzleberry and Pumpkin Pie 1/4 grosgrain ribbon, Old Olive DSP from the Brights DSP tablet, Old Olive Button from the Brights button assortment, curly label punch for the top.
