Savoring Summer

When you arrive home from a trip…your usually tired, thinking about the laundry, the list of things you didn’t complete while you were gone and then you stop by the post office and…

You have several boxes of scrapbooking supplies waiting!

What? This has never happened to me before but I am completely geeked about it.

Look at the cute sticker on the outside of the box containing my “Savoring Summer” mini-album kit from Elle's Studio. “Savoring Summer,” is designed to help you record in journal form all the wonderful items, photos and day to day finds you collect over the summer. Since this is our first summer in the new house, in Europe both with new jobs I thought it would be great to create a pretty little book to write my daily thoughts in.

The kit contains limited edition summer tags from Elle’s Studio, a Studio Calico spray and chipboard alphabet, Sassafrass stickers and various papers from Crate Paper, Sassafrass, etc… plus cute Crate Paper trims and other related items. It arrived all packaged in brown paper and yellow tissue paper with matching yellow ribbon and a “Savoring Summer” tag.

Here’s a look at some of the special edition tags in the kit. I love how the month tags have the month and year in the right hand corner and the left.

I have never ordered from Elle’s Studio before and after this kit’s arrival I think the Studio has the purchase presentation factor right on the mark, I even received a free birthday pennants sheet. There is nothing like having your purchases in the mail wrapped in tissue paper and bows rather than Styrofoam and bubble wrap.

But wait there’s more!

My box from Two Peas in a Bucket arrived while we were in Budapest too, how lucky is that?

Wait until you see the art journal I am making with Emma’s Shoppe it’s going to be fabulous. Now that I am done gushing about my fun new items I promise there will be a Budapest travel update and a Max Mini-Album soon!
