June Projects with Kelly Purkey Shop


There’s a new release at Kelly Purkey Shop today and I wanted to share the two projects I made with this month’s release. The stamps and kits are all about summer fun and I was happy to work with them since we’ve been experiencing “June Gloom” here in southern California.

For my first project, I used the main TN kit called Summer Bucket List to document a week last year checking off the items on my bucket list. We spend a lot of time at the beach and at the pool – both as a family and solo for me, since I am avid swimmer. Many of the photos from the week were taken at both locations and I think I made at least 6 trips to the pool and beach that week. 🙂

When I first saw the TN papers, I was drawn to the large “Here Comes Summer” page. I cut down that page to use in a 4″ x 6″ pocket (layered over some white cardstock) and adhered a small photo of my daughter in the pool.
Since I was documenting my summer bucket list, I had to use the stamps from the kit to make a journaling card, with the completion dates. I used white embossing powder to make “summer bucket list” stand out on the dark blue paper. 
I loved the circle patterns on the papers and stamped some of the sentiments over the circles and cut them out using a circle punch to use as embellishments on other photos.
Lastly, I cut out phrases from the fill-in-the-blank TN page to further embellish my photos. A few puffy asterisks from my stash completed the spread!
For my second project, I documented a recent week this year where I thought summer was starting to show up. Spoiler: Summer was just teasing me because it was sunny that week and then it was back to clouds the following week!
For this spread, I mixed cards from the main project kit, Fun Times, with the LLP kit, Summer Adventuring. We visited the beach twice that week and had fun collecting shells so the gorgeous Seashells stamp set by Life Love Paper was perfect to use. I loved playing with the different shells on my title page!

We also acquired a bike for my daughter which was exciting so the 3″ x 4″ card and matching sentiments from the Summer Adventuring kit was perfect for documenting that.

I used one of the journaling cards from the Fun Times kit to type some notes about things that happened during the week. The Sun’s Out stamp from Life Love Paper was great for adding an embellishment to the otherwise plain card. I popped it up with some foam tape.
A few more stamps and labels and my week was done! Thanks for checking out my projects and let me know if you have any questions!

  3. You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but I
    to find this topic to be really something which I think I’d by no means understand.

    for me. I am looking forward for your next put up, I will attempt to get the
    hold of it!

    resolve this issue. If you have any recommendations, please
    share. Appreciate it!

    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
    I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.
    I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are
    generally lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any
    recommendations or tips? Thank you!

    Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
    I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!

    Thank you

  12. It’s genuinely very complex in this busy life to listen news on TV, thus I just use internet for that purpose, and obtain the most recent information.

  13. Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it upwhat I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing.Do you have any recommendations for beginner blog writers?I’d really appreciate it.

  14. naturally like your web site however you need to take a look at the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth on the other hand I will surely come again again.

  15. Have you ever thought about creating an e-book or
    guest authoring on other websites? I have a blog based on the same information you discuss and
    would really like to have you share some stories/information. I know my viewers would appreciate your work.
    If you are even remotely interested, feel free to shoot me an e-mail.

  16. I’m curious to find out what blog platform you happen to be utilizing?
    I’m experiencing some small security issues with my latest site and
    I would like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any solutions?
