Hey everyone and welcome to the July Gossamer Blue Blog Hop! This is my first one and I'm so excited to share with you a couple layouts I made with the July kits.

First is Afternoon Coffee which is a 6"x12" layout with a 6"x6.25" photo. I love this layout size and all the coffee related products in this months kits worked perfectly for this story! 

That 'will stop for hot coffee' piece is a stamp on white cardstock then I cut it out with a circle punch. There is a foam dot underneath to lift it off the page.

Next is my You Are layout about my little sister. The layout is 8.5"x11" and the photo, which is my recent favorite, is 6.5"x5.5".

I just love that navy card from the Life Pages Kit and it perfectly held the gold 'you are' which was the jumping off point for my journlaing. I simply repeated you are to document all the wonderful things about her right now.

Both layouts above were made with the following kits that are still available at Gossamer Blue!

Thank you Brenda! The first is one of my favorites and I think it's because of that large photo.. :)
