The Story Matters Blog Hop!

Yay! The Story Matters June Kit reveal day is here! And to celebrate we are having a blog hop! You are going to love this month's kit. It is called {a bend in the road} and has some yummy papers and embellishments!





 Here are the projects that I created with this month's kit:
{Recognize this sketch? It was the challenge sketch for May. Better late than never is my motto!}


{I love all the patterned papers in this kit...so the best way that I know how to use lots of yummy patterns so they flow together is through a grid. Easy Peasy!}

{This is my 'story' layout. I love that this journaling is fantasy, something that I wish for, but is not a part of my life right now. I know you are all sick of seeing pictures from this weekend, but I love them! The journaling reads:

In my world we would be next-door neighbors and our kids would go to the same school. We would take family vacations together or send our boys to scout camp all in the same week. We would head over to the movie theater once a week after the kids are in bed. Our husbands would take us on date nights...we would laugh all the time & be close, close.
{ This was my extra credit layout. I used a few embellies that were not in the kit....but one thing that I used from the kit that was fabulous was the backing from my Pink Paislee rub-ons...see it? It is the paper ruffle you see going up the left side of the photo. I sprayed it with my favorite Pearl Glimmer Mist and scrunched it up! This lovely couple is my brother-in-law & sister-in-law in London this spring. TFL! }
