Studio Calico...you nailed it this month.

I mean, as far as kit making is concerned...this one takes the cake.
Maybe it's because I made 5 projects that I absolutely love.
that doesn't always happen, right?
maybe it's the stamps.
KP nailed it this month fo sho.
maybe it's the orange/pink paper in the Venice Beach add-on that I used on every project except my Main only layout.

for whatever reason...this month had me reeling.
here we go...these images are from my Instagram feed :)

my Main kit sneak...cool exclusive diecuts + paper + stamps. i am in LOVE with the More White Woodgrain (you get a piece in this Main kit...buy more, because you WILL want it) and love how cool it looks with just a bit of Chalk Ink rubbed lightly onto it.
this was my final layout I made this month...and it's my favorite. tons of words + that dang word bubble stamp set I can't get enough of from the Venice Beach add-on + Cameo title work. my heart is on this layout, i swear...as in, i choked up while making it.
(i am a confessed softie lol)
Confession #2: if i can make a window/frame out of something, i'm a happy camper. the hex stamps in the Malibu add-on are WAY underrated, simply because of all of the other awesome stamp sets this month i think, lol. I stamped a few onto the woodgrain cardstock, grabbed my craft knife and started filling up those frames. confetti was involved...you can't see it in this pic.
fun birthday card for last week's birthday girl. she loved it :) 
what's not to love about hex stamps & shapes??
and here again is that orange/pink BG paper...sigh.
another layout using what shall heretoforth be known as 'THE stamp set'...ink is Wet Cement by Hero Arts, available in the SC Shop. and can i profess how happy i am to have this printed vellum?? all i did was layer it over the woodgrain cardstock...BAM.
and what is that below it?
that would be the orange/pink BG paper again. 
;)
sigh.
like i said, they NAILED it this month.
