"I realized I had never scrapped these pictures of my niece making good use of her time in quarantine back in 2020 making cards to send out! The colors in this gorgeous line were the perfect compliment to these photos! From my stash: pink and coral cardstock, enamel dot, and circle dies."
Flavors of the Month Kit! This kit features 4 different page collections that are all awesome! We will spend the next few days featuring layouts our designers created using these fabulous kits!
"Oh my goodness! What's not to love about the colors, the designs, and the embellishments of the Echo Park A Slice of Summer kit? And of course that smile on my sweet niece! This girl loves being outside and this kit provides all the feels for those outdoor pics!!! And I just love the touch of woodgrain with all the flowers and gingham and butterflies!"

Lisa said this about her layout:
"I adore the Summer vibe of this collection! I had fun layering the stickers and ephemera to create a fun embellishment cluster. I used a word strip for my title and dressed it up with a fun pair of sunglasses just like in my picture! This collection pairs well with not only your pool photos but any Summer themed photos! From my stash: navy cardstock and circle die."
Lisa said this about her layout: "I though the paper with all the circles was just super cute!! I punched out the circles using my 1 inch, 3/4 inch and 1 1/4 inch circle punches to use as embellishments!! I thought they were the perfect touch to my layout and punching shapes from patterned paper or fussy cutting your patterned paper is a sure way to get a lot of bang for your buck!! From my stash: alpha stickers"
"Smile, You are Awesome"

Grace said this about her layout:
"This collection has some fun graphics in it but combining them together was a bit of a challenge. I didn’t have enough “simple” designed papers to go in between the more graphic papers. So to combat that, I used papers that had the least amount of bold design and matted my photos with that, then I placed the pink paper in between the matt and the background text pattern paper, just so that there’s room to breathe in between layers. I added a 3x4 piece of paper and added the punched circle accents to create my own “handmade” paper. When I saw the “smile” banner pieces, I knew that I wanted to use it and so it was the inspiration for the rest of the title. I also added some more die cuts and placed them in specific spots to either cover parts of the photo that I didn’t want showing or fill in some empty space in my journaling block.
