Karen's Scraps & Graphics


Before I show you our contribution, I'd like to show you something else.

This is my son Mr Bump, looking very shocked about who-knows-what. - but the photo itself isn't very interesting.

Now, I've used the blue-ring octopus "face frame" in our Summer Solstice freebie below, and isn't he extra cute?

I just wanted to give you an idea of how you could use this and the anemone face frame in your layouts.  Hope you like the idea!

And now, on with the freebies...

Summer Solstice extras

Since there was a mix-up about the date for the Summer Solstice blog train (it was supposed to be today, but got changed to the 25th), we've decided to release these extra bits and bobs before the blog train rides instead of after.

These are the bits we made that didn't quite fit with the main parts of our contribution, but we still think they're kind of good.

There are patterned metallic buttons and a matching bookplate, and coloured glass beads.

As always, all images are 300ppi and there are two copies of each, with & without shadows.
Enjoy!

These are the colours you'll have to work with:

Aren't they pretty?  I have a feeling I'm going to go overboard with this one...

Think of all the things that Summer evokes thoughts of;

Flowers, grass, sunshine, picnics, beach trips, swimming, sunburn (ok, not sunburn).

I'm just finishing up on my Mini Kit for the deviantArt ScrapbookHub June colour challenge (more pretty colours), which you'll get to see pretty soon.

And then I'm setting to work on this lovely theme...
