A NOTE FROM TRICIA

This is the time of year when our team accomplishes extraordinary things by working together. With the August Retreat just 37 days away (yikes!), we're busy assembling kits, writing instructions, wrapping gifts, and making final arrangements with the hotel. If you aren't able to make the trek this year, be sure to reserve your Retreat in a Box before they're gone.

I had the privilege of teaching more than one hundred students at the expo in Virginia last month. I'm always watching for that spark to ignite when attendees discover how much time they can save by launching their pages with our unique approach. A very special welcome to our adventurous new members from the East Coast! Our next stop will be in Schaumburg, IL, on August 21-22. See you on the road.

WHAT'S AHEAD?

The design team thought Adele M's. theme suggestion, Woven Strands, had tons of potential. You could spend a lot of time speculating which direction Jacqueline will take with the artwork and fresh color palette, but you'll have to wait until we post the spoiler in a few short weeks! It's going to be gorgeous.

KIT AND COLOR DETAILS

We combined the Matador and Soul of Vodka fonts in the typography this month. Both fonts are available for free at DaFont.

 

COLOR R G B
PINK R222 G67 B135
AQUA R110 G190 B189
YELLOW R255 G209 B64
ORANGE R228 G110 B74
TEAL R50 G84 B94

 

Due to the wide range of bright and bold colors, you'll find tons of ink pads to match the collection. We used Club Scrap's Hybrid Ocean, Tangerine, Topaz, and Fuchsia along with our favorite White Pigment and India Black. The CS® Neon Inks make a vibrant match, as well.

I'm eager to finish my Deluxe kit pages with pictures from my winter vacation to the Dominican Republic. Keep your camera handy during the heat of the summer, and you're sure to have plenty of memories to scrap on these pages!

We've incorporated an entire sheet of Dazzles greeting stickers into the dozen cards in this month's Greetings to Go kit. Remember, you can automatically add the greetings to your Deluxe shipment or simply join the stand-alone card club. Contact us if you need help customizing your membership.
