"I paired the Fancy Pants Simply Summer kit with a go to design for my personal style. I love pairing a photo collage with a few pieces of pattern paper and a little scene from embellishments to create a super quick and easy layout. Even with repeating a design layout, you still end up with unique layouts just from swapping out the products.I used supplies from the main kit and added in some alpha stickers from my stash. "

created this Fun layout:
"Summer Fun"
Here's what Emiley said about her layout:
"The Summer Fun kit is absolutely adorable - the colors and embellishments are great! I also love the cut file from Cut to You and decided to make that a really large element on my layout. I changed the cut file up to better suit my layout and added another small cutfile I created as well. The hose and water themed embellishments inspired me to scrap these older pictures of my older kids having a "hose war" in our backyard! With the large cutfile as the focal point, I didn't need to add many other embellishments so this layout came together rather quickly."
Along with the page kit, Emiley used the EXCLUSIVE May CutFile, Embellishment and Patterned Paper Add-In kit. From her stash, Emiley usedfoam adhesive, white cardstock, nuvo drops

Fancy Pants Designs - Simply Summer Page Kit
This page kit is just one of the four page kits from the
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!
"I loved these woodgrain paper so much I used it as my background!! I added a fun doily and die cut circle to add texture and interest to my embellishment clusters.
From my stash: Doily, letter stickers, yellow cardstock and circle die"
Our designers created these wonderful layouts using the
Fancy Pants "Good Ole' Days" Page Kit.

"Together"
Heather shares this about her layout:
"The moment I opened this kit and saw these cards, I knew exactly that I wanted to create a grid. This was probably the fastest layout I have created, taking less than a 1/2 hour from start to finish. I printed my pictures in black and white to pull from the cards and then pop the color using the patterned papers and embellishments. I used some foam under the title to give some extra dimension to the page and added some cork pieces from the embellishment kit. The "memories" sticker on the N card was pulled from my stash to finish off this page."

"Grateful "
Lisa shares this about her layout:
"I loved the rustric feel of this line, so I printed my pictures with a filter, then added torn edges to the paper on the bottom of my layout. I used the card as my title and then further embellished it with the banner and heart/scallop circle from the kit."
"Orange and pink and teal . . . Oh my! What a beautiful collection! I am still trying to scrap a Gatlinburg, TN trip from 3 years ago and this kit was the perfect colors for that fall trip! I added some puffy hearts from a previous kit to finish off the page as well as some distress ink around the edges of the page."
"Beautiful Day"
By: Grace Tolman
Grace said this about her layout:
"This specific mini kit had a bunch of die cut shapes, as well as a paper that had a bunch of cut aparts and I had wanted to maximize the products so I used most of them on the top, peeking out from my paper border. I also added them to the block of photos to fill in the empty spaces. It’s amazing how a little paper here and there made this page full without too much effort on my part. The kit also came with tags and I used them here, adding the twine for some texture and dimension to the page. Because the pattern papers were quite busy, I loved how the foam letters from the Embellishment kit stood out against all the busyness. I completed my title with another type of letter stickers, from my stash, which is also white.
Grace also used the January Embellishment kit and the following personal stash items: Chipboard Thickers letters (American Crafts); Date stamp (Studio Calico); Ink (Black, My Favorite Things)"
"What an amazingly beautiful kit for scrapping this prom picture of my brother. Absolutely love the background paper! I loved it so much that I made 2 layouts from this kit! (The 2nd is a scraplift of Rochelle Spears from the same kit!). The title work is from my stash, as well as the pearls and the phrase sticker at the top."

"Air Show" By: Grace Tolman
Grace said this about her layout: "This collection has a lot of beautiful papers. However, I found it hard to match with my printed photos. So to overcome that challenge, I went with the brick pattern paper as my background. That was a good “neutral” base for my photos. Then, to incorporate the other pattern papers, I added them as circles. I also used the “Our Story” paper that had 4 wide strips of different patterns on one side to punch out my butterflies. I love how these kinds of papers offer a variety from one single sheet of paper. Stash items used: Date Stamp; Black Ink pad; White Cardstock; Thickers- American Crafts; Spectrum Noir Marker; Circle cutter (Creative Memories); Pearls; Butterfly Punch"
"This page kit is perfect for the pool photos that I had been wanted to scrap! The patterns are perfect, not to overpowering and my photos take center stage."
