Cocoa Daisy Firefly Kit - July Projects

These are my July Scrapbook Layouts for Cocoa Daisy.  This kit is called Firefly and it really captured the sense of a fun and whimsical summer.  

The cut files this month included a fun cloud shape, which I layered on top of each other in blues and rainbow dots too.  

These chipboard pieces from Pinkfresh Studios were a favorite item again this month. 

Camp Rocky River // The kids are having so much fun at summer camps this year.  I was truly blown away when one of the counselors captured this image of her.  So much joy! I had to sprinkle happy little clouds all over this happy picture.  Love these Simple Stories die cuts from the BYOAO as journaling spots.


DITL Sunshine // I love the stamps in the DITL kit this month.  Tons of fun speech bubbles with cute sayings.  I stamped a bunch here in flamingo pink and raised them up with pop dots.   



 DITL Happy // I love the simple bold colors.  I think they really lend themselves to pocket scrapping and letting your photos stand out.  I embellished the page simply with more of the Pinkfresh chipboard and a stamped speech bubble.  I also added the happy tag because that picture was taken on my birthday.


DITL Sweet // I go back and forth between computer journaling and hand journaling.  I used the collect app on and off to record memories and printed many of these pictures with captions from that. I love being able to balance my full color, full bleed (ie, no white space) photos with these graphic black and white cards here.

 DITL Right Now // I used lots of splashes of yellow on this page.  Even though there are a lot of other colors going on, it gives the page cohesion. The wood veneer hearts are also from Pinkfresh studio.  The Simple Stories Die Cuts from the BYO Add-on make great journaling spots again.


Summer 2016 // Another awesome picture from camp this summer!  I cut up the summer bucketlist DITL card and added it here.  I added fancy pants die cuts here across the page.  I really love these pattern papers.  The watercolor paper is full of stars and butterflies and is plenty summery.

I hope you love these kits as much as I do.  Head over to Cocoa Daisy to check out the kits and to customize your own add-on with fun pieces from the BYOAO section too!

Pre-school Graduation // Congrats Nandini!!

Pre-school graduations don't need to be too complicated or drawn out.  We kept Nandini's nice and simple and I couldn't have been more pleased.  After all the festivities at Avinash's kindergarten graduation last year, I knew that I had to do something special for her as well.  

Nandini has known these kids since she was two years old!  They are best friends and I'm so proud to see them growing up together.  


In truth, I still see them as little ones, but they are growing up and learning so much already.   

I made a simple garland with a kit from Target.  I got these cute mortarboard headbands from there as well.  The diplomas were a copy of UT's that I made in photo shop.  A nice gothic font goes a long way. 

Way to go Nandini!  You are so bright and I can't wait to see how much you like being in the big school for kindergarten.  I pray that she finds more confidence and will make friends there too.
