"Hooray For Summer"
This Endless Summer collection is awesome!  The colors are so vibrant and fun and make you want it to be Summer already!  Living by the beach we have tons of surf and sand pics and I couldn't wait to scrapbook them in a double layout with the Endless Summer Collection.   All the patterned paper coordinates very well together and you can't go wrong with any combination.  I used both sides of the Summer Picnic paper and the Sunkissed paper which I thought was perfect for the beach scene photos.  I also chose a few great die cuts and embellished them with Hot Rocks.

Supplies:
Paper:  Summer Picnic, Sunkissed, Let's Eat.  Embellishments:  Lazy Days Stickers, Summer Die Cuts, Hot Rocks.  Tools:  I-Rock tool.


"Endless Summer"

Our family loves to BBQ and the kids love to eat!  I love the BBQ and picnic theme papers and embellishments in the Endless Summer collection.  It makes for a very fun layout!   Because I love all the fun patterns I had a hard time choosing. So, the perfect way to use a bunch of the patterns, was to incorporate pennant flags with all the fun patterns.  I made all the pennants with the Summer Picnic patterned strips and layered them on the page.  I loved how it turned out!

Supplies:  Paper:  Let's Eat, Creamsicle, Soda Pop, Summer Picnic.  Embellishments:  Sticker Stackers, Hot Rocks.  Tools:  I-Rock Tool

"Sunshine" Snag'Em Card

It's been such a cold winter for so many of my friends, I was especially glad to see the warm, bright, happy colors in the Endless Summer collection. I thought I would create a card for one of my good friends still weathering the winter in the northeast to help warm her up and get her dreaming about summer. I adore the darling sun Snag 'Em stamp and thought it would make the perfect focal point for a happy card. I stamped the image twice, once on yellow and again on orange cardstock. To get more dimension, I used foam tape to pop up the smiling face and snipped in between all the rays before bending the solid ones forward. Adding the "sunshine" sentiment stamp and some glitter made the whole thing pop off the patterned paper!

Supplies used:

Patterend Paper: (Endless Summer collection) Imaginisce; Cardstock: (orange, yellow, white) Stampin' Up!; Stamps: (sun and "sunshine" from Endless Summer); Dies: Cloud Border, Cloud Duo (Taylored Expressions), label die (Stampin' Up!); Accents: (stickles, liquid pearls) Ranger; Ink: (white hybrid) PTI

"Live Love SWIM"

My little rugrat has been learning how to swim and I've been waiting for the perfect collection to use to help me capture his experience. The wave paper from Endless Summer was just the ticket. I had a great underwater photo as well as one of him earning a ribbon. It was tricky using two such different photos, but I solved my dilemma by placing the swimming photo behind vellum. I also placed some of the patterned wave paper behind vellum as well, which gave the otherwise simple layout some interesting design elements. I love the chipboard stickers from this collection and the words "Live, Love, Swim" made for a terrific title. For a final accent to the page, I used the one of my i-Top punches to create these little elements, which reminded me of "paddle wheels."
