Citrus Tree Studio June Kit Reveal

Cindy at Citrus Tree Studio e-mailed me and asked if I'd like to be a guest designer using their June kit. Of course I jumped at the opportunity! I received the kit in the mail and boy howdy was I ever excited. This is one FAB kit. I have gotten 4 layouts and 2 cards and still have enough left for more! Plus it came with TWO alphas, yep, you heard me right folks....2 alphabets! I have two layouts to share today and I'll be back soon to share the other layouts and cards!

I used a sketch from Scrap a Little for this one. Isn't that flower neat? Yep, its part of the kit. The brads and embroidery floss are from my stash.

There was a ton of chipboard buttons in this kit! I inked them and layered them.

I cut the flourishes using a Quickuts die and my Cuttlebug. I did lots of inking and sewing on this layout.

This picture of Peyton just cracks me up! I heard him say "I'm going shopping Mommy" and turn around to see him in my boots, no pants on, underwear on backwards using his sisters walker as a shopping cart! He's such a hoot and getting to be so creative!

Do you ever have those layouts that start out with big fantastic ideas, but in the end, its just a let down to what you had pictured? Well, this layout is one of those for me.

I stitched the buttons on a little different, just cause! ;-)
I fussy cut paper and layered and pop dotted it. You can see in the bottom left corner, I doodled on the journaling spots like the paper was printed up above.

I had so much fun with this kit. Its one of those perfect kits that are very flexible. I can picture masculine pages, family pages, kids pages, you name it! Cindy has two fantastic kits up for grabs this month, I designed with the Mens Department one!
