yet it is a little chilly compared to the warmer weather we had earlier this week. Oh well, at least it is spring! Today also was the reveal day for subscribers to the Studio Calico April kit Joyland. Tonight at midnight everyone else can get in on the add-on kit action. I only bought one this time. I really had planned to buy Skycoaster and Whacky Shack but since we are going away this week I thought it would be wise to limit myself. I also bought some mist and ink too. Can't wait until the goodies come in from UPS!!!!
I've been going going going this week. It's a lot to take care of a house and two busy boys all day but I have managed to do two layouts this week and when the kids go to bed tonight hopefully I can do more.
The first layout was using this month's kit from SC, Quilting Bee. I really tried to be thoughtful about my embellishments and tried some different things. The one above I used last month's SC kit, Baker's Dozen. This layout is a stretch for me because I usually over do things and this one was sooooo simplistic. So much in fact that my oldest said, "Mom, you're done with it? Are you sure??" That kind of told me something!
I have been extremely critical of my layouts lately and I am so glad that I signed up for Kelly Purkey's online class that starts next week. I really hope to gain more understanding of what makes a layout great and what can make it....well stink! The great thing with this class is that you can go your own pace which is perfect for me! Check it out...I definitely think it is worth the $25!
Have a great Saturday everyone!
