31 before 31 scrapbook page

i made a scrapbook page for my project life year 30 album listing my 31 things before 31... actually i made this page back in the summer of 2013, but just found the pics on my camera. like i said recently, the autumn of 2013 was crazy busy.  and i found pics of my layouts of project life for june, july and i believe august of 2013 that i will probably post to the blog soon as well.

studio calico - spaulding bowl card kit



after months and months i'm finally crafting again! my new space still isn't quite complete, but at least it's now workable. last weekend and this weekend i decided to try it out and i'm loving it! i also discovered today that i quite like setting up my extra table to counter height and and standing while i work.

i thought i'd first jump in by using up the studio calico spaulding bowl card kit from their january copper mountain kit. i really wanted to see how many cards i get out of this kit. guess how many!?! 10 cards! now i did use an extra pattern paper of a print of girls, some twine and the white cardstock that wasn't included. but from the kit i also had one paper that was a plain without a pattern that i never used and i didn't use all the embellishments either. so here are 9 out of the 10 cards i made... the 10th card i submitted for publication, so we'll see!
