Out of the Mire: Basic Gray

Monday, June 1, 2015

Welcome to Emma, our wonderfully creative & prolific June Guest Designer.

Emma has been playing along for the last few months and loves how having
her kit at the ready helps streamline her daily scrapbooking.

We are basing our kits this month on the new collections at

How will you know which ones are new?

There is a little "What's New" tab on their page!

Choose a fave or mix & match elements.

The one little problem with using an entire collection is that it's quite matchy-matchy.

What if you haven't anything in your stash to inspire?

For some help BE SURE to return for the Forgery on the Fourth feature.

Lynnette has outdone herself this month covering all eight collections!

With some help from the Master Forgers you will not lack for inspiration.

My inspiration:

I happened to have the "Medallion" paper (3rd from the right) which started my kit.

I chose Prism for it's light & bright quality - so many of the others seemed a bit muddy.

How did I do with the papers?

Let's go see what else is in June's Magic Blue Box!

In addition to Lightbender's original kit papers shown above,
I've thrown in a few more for good measure.

Not as robust as my usual kit, but as always I reserve the right to dip into my stash throughout the month!

A hint of citrus, a sprinkle of gold dust...

Now, the FUN begins!


Thanks for stopping by!
