Take Note

I hope you are trying to stay cool in your part of the world!! Here in central Canada - the weather is SO HOT!! I am loving it... can't wait for my holidays in a few weeks so I can sit back and relax!

I wanted to share a project with you today using the Studio Calico line - Take Note
This month, I picked up the whole collection pack - right now there are 6x6 paper packs on sale for 50% off!!! You cannot beat that deal!

What I love about the packs is that everything goes - it is not matchy matchy too, which I do love, and the patterns are so grown up too!

I really wanted to use a lot of the papers in the collection all together... so I started chopping chunks and this is what I came up with:

 I made a sun ray pattern really randomly - I just cut down pieces until they fit.. I really am not a measurer- so it took a little fiddling, but it worked! Remember the tips I gave last month on mixing patterns - same rules apply here:

 I also snagged up some of the Elle's Studio tags to add to the mix too. the cute sentiments are just perfect for layouts and cards of all occasions:

 and another goodie in the store is the Ormolu tags! I added a few to the top and bottom of my page, along with a few stitched hearts:

And if these products are not enough for you - Tanya has completely lost her mind and put TONS of stuff up for sale in the store!! I am talking 50-75% off people!! Check it all out HERE or on our Facebook page. This is the perfect time to snag up some good deals on things you have been stalking the shopping page for!!
