Papertrey Ink Blog Hop-June


Hi friends,
I'm back to participate in PTI's Blog Hop again! Thank you everyone who left such wonderful comments for my last project. I truly appreciate it Smileys. The theme for this month was "The Lazy Days of Summer." I don't know why they call it that because there are NO lazy days around here! It's crazy busy with my boys taking them to ALL of their activities!

Anyhoo, here's the inspiration for today's
project:
We have a red bucket (but I don't know under which of my sons' beds it's at, tee hee!)
Here's my Project: I used My Timeless Templates- Pack a Picnic (Small). I punched the border with the wave punch & punched a circle, backed it with foam tape where the handle attaches to the bucket for added detail.


Living in Southern California, we make several beach trips. One of my favorite things to do at the beach is collect shells with my boys. We don't usually find any big ones but these are some of the ones we've collected.


My good friend will be visiting from out of state & I'm sure we'll be going to the beach. I'm probably going to be giving it to her little girl to take her shells home in.

Thanks for hopping by today & peeking at my project! If you'd like to see other projects I've created with My Timeless Templates click here & here -- gotta go!

Today's Project was brought to you by:
Paper: Pure Poppy, white -PTI
MTT: Pack a Picnic -small template used for this project

  3. You have some fabulous shells there! Reminds me of vacations we took to Florida when I was little, shell collecting was always a priority for us, especially at age five.
