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!

  2. После недопонимания с любимой, я решил извиниться. Заказал на “Цветов.ру” нежный букет роз. Цветы помогли смягчить обстановку и вернуть в нашу жизнь светлые моменты. Рекомендую, как лучший способ примирения. Советую! Вот ссылка https://worldcup2021.ru/vologda/ – доставка цветов 24

  5. Hi there! I realize this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.
    Does managing a well-established website
    such as yours take a massive amount work?
    I’m completely new to writing a blog but I do write in my diary daily.

    I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my experience and feelings online.
    Please let me know if you have any recommendations or
    tips for new aspiring bloggers. Thankyou!

  11. obviously like your web-site but you have to test the spelling on several of your posts.
    Many of them are rife with spelling problems and I in finding it very bothersome to tell the reality then again I
    will certainly come back again.

  21. Having read this I thought it was extremely enlightening. I appreciate you finding the time and energy to put this article together. I once again find myself spending way too much time both reading and commenting. But so what, it was still worth it.

  22. Do you have a spam problem on this blog; I also am a blogger, and
    I was wanting to know your situation; we have created
    some nice procedures and we are looking to trade methods with other folks,
    be sure to shoot me an e-mail if interested.
