Sneaks and Sketchbook 2

My plate is full!  CHA is next week, my kids have been busy, I've been busy with work gearing up for a week at the beach, so to say I'm a bit swamped is a wee understatement.

I do have sneaks to share of the August kit from Studio Calico.  I'm also working on another layout or two and hope to have them to share at reveal as well, although they won't be in my gallery this month as the deadline has come and gone.

I got add-ons 1 and 2 this month.  Sugar Woods and Footpath. 

I just wish I could have ordered more time, lol.  July was a busy month, family wise and crafty wise.  You just can't quite tell because I can't quite share everything, lol.

I can share this though:

I had a lot of fun contributing to Kelly's second Sketchbook class.  This time, I also contributed two layouts. 

Sketchbook 2 is a four week class filled with fresh sketches, easy instructions, beautiful examples, and lots of fun. From August 2nd to August 27th a PDF will be delivered to your inbox every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday so you can work at your own pace. By the end of the class, you'll have a complete sketchbook of 12 original sketches, 36 layouts, and an additional 36 sketches based on those creative pages. All the examples are brand new layouts, exclusive to this class... you won't see them anywhere else! The best part is that you will be receiving an example layout from me for each of the sketches, along with two example layouts from a member of the incredible Studio Calico design team. The class will also include a private message board for questions and sharing ideas, as well as two scheduled chats - all on the awesome Studio Calico website.

These peeks are the only thing you'll see from me on the internet unless you sign up for the class:

I used some leftover kit contents from previous Studio Calico kits.  I had a lot of fun with these layouts so I hope you'll take the class so you can check them out along with the other projects!  Here's a peek at what the setup looks like:

A very cool thing to have in your crafting arsenal.
