June Shop Picks for Studio Calico

It's that time again! Time to load up your carts with those goodies you have been eyeing all month, because starting now things ship free with your Studio Calico kit! In the past I have done a collection of items that I think work well with the kit, or are new to the store etc. This month I have ONE pick but it is only because it's fantastic and I only recently fell in love with it.




Now don't get me wrong, it's not like I didn't fall in love with them the moment I saw them. I mean hello, just look at them, they are PERFECT for any stash! But the difference is NOW I am using them! The set comes with 2 of each sheet of 12. This makes for 24 different color since there is an A side and B side to each paper. I took one of each paper and cut it down to all 3x4s.. you can get 12 3x4 cards from each set of paper which gives you a nice RAINBOW collection of cards! These make the perfect background to any project life project you are working on. 


These boxes are from the lovely all ready memories

I don't know about you but when I am working on Project Life I slip all my photos in and do the rest by color, so this was the perfect solution for how to use these papers for me! How about you? I set aside 48 cards for one of you! Just leave me a comment telling me how YOU use color in your projects for a chance to win this set of cards! P.S. I didn't round the corners on this set so you could use them how you like! 


I will pick a winner by Wednesday May 28th :) 
And don't forget to get a sneak of Hello, Hello here

go.be.inspired.

  15. Wow this is a great idea! I just sorted my PL cards by color over the weekend. I'm just starting with pocket style scrapbooking and am finding that be careful about the color of the cards I use can really tie a spread together.

  21. what a great idea! i place all my PL pictures and then pull a coordinating color from the pictures to finish off the details…usually. :) sometimes a PL card that is perfect for my week dictates the rest of my color choices too!

  37. I've debated on buying those papers for the past several months. Seeing them cut into PL cards makes them even more desirable. I choose my PL cards based on the colors in my photos which makes for a very colorful album. But I love it.

  47. Love these! I for sure like to work based on color, so these would be great for having base cards to work from.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Lovin those papers...what a great idea on how to bring in color! I like the look of mostly white PL layouts with pops of color throughout....these cards would be perfect to mix in as bases and pops here and there!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  52. Oh my gosh, I live for color!! I do like you, pick all my picture and then choose a couple of colors (I usually get inspired by the SC PL kits for this) to go with them and I work with this to fill in the rest of the pockets. I'd love to win!!! Thanks Shanna!

  54. Cute papers! I start with themed cards that go with my week and pull colors from there and usually end up with 2-3 main colors that coordinate. It's a pretty organic process for me :)

    ReplyDelete
  55. Oh wow, awesome colors. When I'm working on my Project Life spread I always print out my photos first. Than I lay them out and look, which color is the main color. Then I go through my stash and pick cards with that color on them and also embellishments in that color will be used on the spread. This way I have a very cohesive look of my page.
