County Fair...January's Studio Calico Kit.

December is winding down...and that means that the January Kit from Studio Calico is available for purchase!! I also grabbed the Ring Toss and Photo booth add-ons, as well as the Old School Letter Set. Jumping right in...

This is my Main Kit only layout...loved the bold colors in County Fair, and the 'winner winner' chipboard piece cracked me up! The journaling here is kind of retrospective, but also about my upcoming 39th birthday. holy pete...39??
County Fair + Mister Huey Clay + Zing (Powder, Apricot, Mustard and Leaf) + Old Road Chalk Ink


Next is a layout about Spirit Week at Allie's school...they wear uniforms now, so it's a big deal for them to get to step outside of that for a week. We snapped a pic every morning at 645 AM before she went out, and it's cool to see the result of her 'spirit'. I cut the word 'Spirit' with my Silhouette Cameo (Pacifico and Blackout fonts)...the alphabets in the Photo Booth add-on weren't available yet when our boxes shipped, so it gave me a reason to try it out! the graph is from my FAVORITE item this month...the Old School Letter Set...as are the teal labels. (the teal/white diamond sticker is the negative from the label sheet!) Also had to use the cool 4x4" circle graph stamp from Ring Toss!

I have been eyeing up the Ormolu fabric swatches for awhile now, so I'm happy they were in the Photo Booth add-on...and will definitely be grabbing more, now that i see what good quality they are. I strung a few on some thread and used them to make a banner on this next one. This old photo of my bro and i cracks me up every time :)
Photo Booth + English Ivy Chalk Ink + Farmers Jeans Chalk Ink + Old Road Chalk Ink + Mister Huey Clay


This layout came about after a reaalllly rough holiday season this year for me. it's about missing my dad, and it felt good to just type out that i struggle with having lost him so long ago. call me a sap...but it helped a bit to get it down on paper. at the top, the little bit with the gold heart?? i cut it out randomly...then when i looked at the words in French, they caught my eye so i looked them up on Google Translator lol. they mean 'return, please'...how perfect is that? total accident, but maybe it was meant to be.
Photo Booth + Ring Toss + County Fair + Cough Syrup JBS Ink + Mister Huey Clay + Rusty Keys Chalk Ink + Old Road Chalk Ink + Shooting Gallery (arrow stamp) + Old School Letter Set


Finally, this card.
Allie thought it would be cool to make one for Mike to sneak into his luggage...he's been traveling a lot for work, and we miss him like crazy when he's not with us. The globe was cut with my Cameo (as was the title, Pacifico font)...and the banner was made using one of the graph note papers in the Photo Booth add-on. I just wiped JBS Malted Milk ink all over it, so that it would work with the cream colored paper i'd already cut...the white was a bit much. ;)
