Sparkle Girl {Paper Issues Kit}

Did you know that in addition to all the free cut files and all the latest and greatest scrapbooking supplies, Paper Issues also has a monthly kit? They actually have two kits--a full-blown kit and the "swag bag," which is like a mini kit with a delicious little taste of different scrappy supplies. I used the June kit called Pontoon, along with the Thickers title that came in the May Fishin' in the Dark kit. How fun that Cassie names her kits after songs. If you don't know that Pontoon song, you must go check it out.

Here's a peek at the June kit, which you can still get in the shop.

So here are some details. The inspiration for my page design came from Heather Shank's amazing layout. I love those cute little pigeons in the kit and that paper with the speech bubbles, which I fussy cut. 

How fun are the thickers? Love the holographic look they have. I love this picture of my friend's daughter, and I've been waiting for the perfect opportunity to scrap it. I decided to go with the purples in the kit to highlight the photo. and added some turquoise in the horizontal scalloped border to match her scarf.

I love, love, love the Bella Blvd Florence alphas. At the last minute, I added some sequins from my stash and that cute little chipboard car that came in the kit. It was the perfect finishing touch, I think.
