Bazzill Basics Cardstock - Bazzill White, Yukon Gold (included in kit), Chiffon, Tutu Pink, Stream and Quick Sand (in Extras pack).

Your Smile Makes My Heart Bounce - My daughter Emily having great fun on a bouncy castle.

The sheet of Bazzill White was chosen for this layout. I worked out where the patterned paper would go, then set about stencilling Distress Inks, through a bubble stencil onto the card.  

With the Perfect Pink Pattern paper, I cut up into the stripes - I counted three stripes for each cut, but cut them randomly to different lengths. I inked the edges, and stuck this to the top of the layout. 

My photo was double mounted using Chiffon & Stream Bazzill from the kit. This was placed onto the layout to the right side. The next stage was to select buttons in colours to match the papers and Bazzill. I stitched one button to the bottom of each stripe, using yellow DMC stranded cotton. 
 

I created my title and the date using the Cricut and the same two sheets of Bazzill cards stock. These were glued into place, and outlined with a fine black pen.

Finally, I scattered the Pinkfresh Studio - Gems - clear with gold dust from the kit, over the layout to add a touch of sparkle.


Pearly Queen - My granddaughter was taken with these pearls my daughter was given. Here she is wearing them and looking very pleased with herself!

For the background I chose the Lemon Yellow Pattern paper, I toned  down the pattern across the centre by dry brushing with some cream chalky finish paint. This was left to dry, while I made two large tags from the floral side of Best of the Best Bunches paper. I cut these using the Tim Holtz - Sizzix Thinlits Tag Collection die set. I inked the edges and placed them sideways on, halfway down the layout, with the holes facing each other near the centre. I joined the tags by tying them together with two strands of Baker's Twine. This was tied in a big bow. 

The two photos were trimmed and placed to the left of the layout overlapping the tag and each other. I made two journalling spots, using Tutu Pink & Stream Bazzill and a set of Sizzix Thinlit dies- Layering Frames. There were placed to the lower part of the right tag.

My title was cut with more dies - this time I used the Spellbinders Say Cheese Pooh's Alphabet and Numbers set. I cut the letters twice, once with some pearlescent card and the second set with the Stream Bazzill. These were layered up to create a shadow, and arranged onto the layout. Some letters were glued in place, others were applied with 3D foam pads. 

For the date I used Tim Holtz - Sizzix Thinlits - Alphanumerics Label set. These were cut from Chiffon Bazzill and applied to the oval journalling spot. I added my journalling to the square journalling spot. 

To embellish the tags I used several items from the kit - Embellishments - Prima - Among the Wild Flowers - Flowers and Tickets, Cocoa Vanilla - Bloom & Grow - Puffy Heart and Paper Favourites - peony die cuts. From my stash I added more paper flowers. I also added some pearls to the page in small clusters. 

That's all from the June kit. I'll be back with a new kit for July soon.
Thanks for looking.
