The Pocket Source Blog Hop

Friday, February 28, 2014

 Welcome to The Pocket Source Blog Hop! You should have arrived from Wendy's blog.

Okay, so have you heard about The Pocket Source? It's a new website that was literally made for Project Lifers! There is a gallery, an active forum, a chance to have your layouts featured, free printable downloads, amazing blog posts, and giveaways. Join in the fun - it's free! Just sign up and start chatting, uploading your layouts, and learn something new. We can even be friends on there!


Today I've got a layout using the new Kiwi core kit edition. I can't say enough about this kit - I seriously love it. It's gorgeous. It's bright. It's fun. It has the perfect combination of colors. I love all the sayings on the cards. I thought it was perfect to use on my Jamaica layout. As you know, I'm already a little behind on PL this year. This trip was a little challenging to document since it spanned weeks 3 and 4. I finally decided the trip needed its own layout and a smaller insert.

Left side and front of insert:


Left side: our journey to get to Jamaica - interesting since Joe was injured and on crutches - and our room at the resort.


I didn't have anymore A's in these sparkly teal Thickers, so I used 3 V's turned upside down. I think it works!


I had Joe take this silly picture of us running through the airport. We always had a wheelchair waiting for us when we get off the plane, but they didn't have enough people to push on this connection - so I was the pusher :) The blurriness is perfect because it shows how hurried we were.


Front of insert - how we spent our days at the beach.


Back of insert and Right Side:


Back of insert: I love the black and white and the "lovely" evening cards, both from Studio Calico.


Right side: selfies, ice cream, and my favorite 6x6 paper cut down to a 4x6. It's from Studio Calico's new Wanderlust collection. 


These metal hearts are from the latest Freckled Fawn embellishment kit. I thought they looked nice on a pink Sunshine card.


Well that's all I have for this time... do you love the Kiwi kit as much as I do?? You can continue on the blog hop by visiting Cricket's blog. Be sure to check out all the posts - there's tons of inspiration!!
