Carnival King: ruby rock it & birthday bash

 

If you have the Monday blues,

I have something that might cheer you up!

 

Friends at Ruby Rock-it asked me to create with their new

Carnival King Range  

{they call them ranges v. lines}

and here's what I made

 

 

And like always I got CRAZY and made 4 Layouts!

This photo of Kevin & I was taken at Disney’s California Adventure.

We had been dating for 4 months and I took him to DCA for his 38^th B-Day

I thought that this photo complimented the Carnival King range really well

 

I have a confession to make. I have not been to our local Easter carnival in years.

Seriously YEARS!

But when I got asked to design with Carnival King,

I really wanted pictures of a carnival to work with!

So I drove by the park when they were setting up and snapped a couple of photos.

I like to think I documented the tradition of the Easter Carnival in Sunland/Tujunga

 

 

And of course here is a layout of Starbucks!

I love that I was able to take, this range and make a Valentines Day layout

from such a bold and bright range.

Did you see those arrows? Yep I rocked them…

 

 

How fun is this rainbow paper!?! I knew I wanted to use it right way

when I opened the paper pack!

Even Kevin was all ”I really like that paper”

What better way to use this colorful paper than the celebration of everyday.

 

And if you noticed I used my new favorite flair,

PandaEIGHT from my friend Martha’s shop. Also those Thickers rock with this range.

 

 

And I get to giveaway this fun prize pack to

one of my followers

 

I also have some leftovers from the product they sent

me that I want to giveaway!

So that’s 2 giveaways today!
