The Best Moments are Free: Card Edition!

Earlier this month, I share with you the June Special, The Best Moments are Free. In this post, I showed you the four “scrapbooking kits” that you can get free when you buy certain stamp sets this month. In this post, I’d like to rebrand these “scrapbooking kits” as “project kits” because you can make anything you want with them!

This wedding or anniversary card uses stamping, paper and embellishments from the Then & Now Kit. The sentiments were added from the June Stamp of the Month, It’s Your Day to Sparkle.

Here are the cards I made with the other three product kits plus the stamp of the month. I used a lot of the design techniques I learned from the layout projects.

Whether you are a scrapbooker, card-maker or both, these kits are a really good value. You’ll save even more when you buy them all! Add The Best Moments Are Free Bundleto your cart for just $52.95 and you’ll get all four stamp sets plus product bundles!

When you buy the bundle, your purchase is enough to qualify you to get the June Stamp of the Month for just $5! This brings your total to just $57.95 for over $125 in product!

I hope this gives you some ideas of other ways you can use the free “project kits”. Be sure to order yours before the month ends!

Happy Creating,

Rebecca

Happy Camper Layout using You Are Here Cricut Collection

The first time I flipped through the handbook for the new You Are Here Cricut cartridge, I was drawn vintage trailer camper. It was so cute that I couldn’t wait to cut it out. Add to that the “Happy Camper” title and we have a winner!

For this layout, I also used several other images from the cartridge. Thanks to the recent updates in Design Space, it is easy to see what images were used. I pulled up this list by clicking on the project in the My Projects list. If you’d like to use one of these images, the best way to add them to your project is to click Insert Image then type the image number (including the hashtag) into the search bar.

When I started this project, I knew I wanted the camper to be teal and white. So I started with our Lagoon and started playing around with other colors. The color scheme I ended up with was Lagoon, Peacock, Sorbet and Pewter.

Our new two toned cardstock gave me more options  while sticking to those colors. For example, I used the actual Lagoon color for the trailer, but used the lighter back side for the awning and trees. In this picture you can also see the difference between the Pewter on the trailer door and tires vs the lighter shade in the title.

Rather than make the layout completely with solid cardstock, I used the Peacock patterned paper from the Enchantment Fundamentalpaper pack. I love how this paper adds some fun detail without introducing new colors to my pages.

I hope you enjoy this layout and are inspired to find time to create too. You need that in your life!
