A Little Spacey Blog Train!

So, Laura, of simply.scraps and Amber, of Stolen Moments have created this fabulous collab "A Little Spacey" and they have generously let their CT members make little freebies to share with you! How awesome is that? So first up is a preview of their kit. (image is linked to Elemental Scraps, but you can also grab it at ScrapMatters)

And here's my layout...when I first saw it, I was planning to do a LO of my son, but as I was going through all my photos, I found this one of my daughter and thought it was perfect for this kit!

And...here's what you really came for, right?

Have you seen all the fun summer kits out there? Such cute stuff!!! I was lucky enough to be RAK'd by Nikki Beaudreau and received this beautiful kit Backyard Beach! I just love the colors and those adorable elements!

I had so much fun playing--here's my layout.
{I also used This Is The Day wordart by Ali Edwards.}

And these next 2 are using Sugarplum Paperie Goodies...for this one, I used her newest kit Summer Delight

Here's a little preview of the kit...I am especially loving the word art in this one!
