Adornit Blog Hop

I am excited to be participating in the Adornit Blog Hop Event!

Where shall we start? Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start. When you read you begin with A-B-C. When you sing you begin with do-re-mi. Well, if nothing else, I hope you have that song stuck in your head now, LOL!

So the theme of the Adornit summer blog hop is "Summer Favorites." To that end, I have created a 2-page layout "How Does Our Summer Grow?" A huge part of our summer is spent caring for our gardens. It is truly a rewarding experience to watch one's garden growing from seeds to food on the table, or in some case, snacks while gardening :)

For this layout, I used mostly Adornit patterned papers with a touch of Collage Press. Most of the supplies I used is from Scrap Attack Scrapbooking's July 09 Mini {Sas}sy kit which is still available! I was a very lucky girl to have won that kit on SAS's blog. I absolutely love how that kit was put together, the papers from Adornit were from several collections and they go together so marvelously well. I really love the cool color palettes, and even though my pages are about summer, they represent what I want to convey so well, the little earthly escape that is our gardens and gardening. Thank you Lauri for the kit, I so love it!

Here I used just a little bit of Collage Press die cut, showing the summer months. Oh yes, I feel clever! LOL.

That's about it at my little art :) Now to continue with the blog hop, your next stop is at the extremely talented and fabulous Jana Eubank!
