July Kits

Hey all!  Another muggy day headed our way here in Southwestern Ontario.  We had a little bit of rain yesterday, but could really stand a good dunking any time now.  As always, you will find me hunkered down somewhere cool ... I'm definately not an "enjoythehotweather" gal.
I posted the July kits to the website yesterday and will be posting a sweet little mini album kit once I've received the last bits.
I realize that I'm the one who puts the kits together and that this should be a given, but I LOVE the kits this month!  I will be using every last bit of the papers and embellishments, adding bits left from other months and will have a few new items to use on future projects in the way of spray and glitter.
The first kit, "Workin' for the Weekend" (Loverboy, anyone?) is definately representative of my favorite colours right now ... teals,browns, krafts, creams, yellows.  Items from previous kits blend seamlessly with this kit to give you endless embellishment choices.
Papers from Studio Calico "Heyday", October Afternoon "9 to 5", Jillibean Soup "Macho Nacho", Crate Paper "Storyteller" ...
Beautiful specialty papers ... more Heidi Swapp Color Magic, a Fancy Pants Flocked Transparency and one of the Prima Stitched Mulberry papers (seen below) ...
An October Afternoon alphabet and a Jenni Bowlin alphabet stencil paper.  This sticker book from Amy Tangerine's Sketchbook line is FULL of images that can be used on so many projects.  Rounding out the kit is some May Arts twine, Studio Calico Mister Huey and some Maya Road beads ...
... and some little Melissa Frances kraft envelopes ...
The second kit "Hit the Beach" is filled with vibrant colour ...
Echo Park "Paradise Beach", Kaisercraft "Great Southernland" and some Bazzill Antique Dictionary make up the pattered papers.  Another Fancy Pants Flocked Transparency, Heidi Swapp Color Magic and a sheet of vellum just for fun ...
Prima flowers, Elle's Studio tags, American Crafts WOW glitter and Ranger Glossy Accents ...
WRMK Washi Tape and another DIY Thicker set.  Now that I've figured the DIY Thickers out, they are quickly becoming my favorite alphas ...
There is a bit in the Gallery already, but much more to come.  I've got a bunch of beach photos that will absolutely be done using these kits :)
