My Secret Scrappy Wish

One of my secret scrappy wishes is to be on a design team for a monthly kit club. (Yeah, I know...it's not so secret any longer now that I've posted it on my blog!) I think it would be a really fun challenge to create layouts using materials someone else picks out for me. Anyone who knows me knows I love a challenge!

My secret scrappy wish sort of came true when I became part of Scrapbook News and Review's kit club review team. I got the opportunity to work with a kit by Scrap for a Cure called "Summer Sorbet." This kit had a whimsical, colorful, eclectic mix of products that made it really fun to work with. Here's what was in the kit:

It was definitely challenging to be limited to using items from a kit, but it was a really fun challenge! Here are the layouts I made. I was allowed to add letters from my stash. I also snuck in a stamp, a couple of brads, some things I saw in their add-on kit thatI had in my stash, and a photo corner where I messed up on something.
