Picnic Blog Hop

Greetings, hoppers! Welcome to my little part of the Club Scrap blog hop featuring the fun and colorful Picnic collection. If you got here from Janet's blog, you're in the right spot. To see the entire list of participants go to Club Scrap Creates
As I said, my part of the hop is quite small this time. As much as I love this new kit, I haven't had time to create anything with it. I bowed out of the May blog hop because of time constraints, but I was determined to have a part this month!  I created this fun card that would be great for a birthday. Speaking of birthdays, today is my youngest daughter's special day, though I dare not give this card to her, as it has PINK on it! Not sure what she has against the color, but she likes every color except that one. 



I absolutely love dies. I recently started getting dies monthly from Hot off the Press, and a month or two ago I received this fun bicycle die set. It allowed me to create this fun, summery card with some Picnic papers. It's pretty straightforward--just the background might need some explanation. I used Memories Mists to create the sky and grass, cutting out clouds from Post-It notes to adhere to the white Picnic cardstock before spraying. Green grass, blue sky, a bike, and some balloons--looks like summer to me!

 
That's it for me this month. The next stop on the hop is Annette's blog, Digital Musings by AnnetteD. Can't wait to see what digital creations she has developed this month. 

Until next time,

Lisa Kay

  8. for not having much time, you have a wonderful product to show off... as your daughter gets older, she may just learn to slightly tolerate the pink, as I have over the past 30 + years...
