IMPORTANT NOTICE: Because of the 4th of July holiday in the US, our shipping dates will be moved back, our policy says kits will ship on the the 10th of the month, but we usually ship out earlier. Holiday closures for our shipping carriers means we'll have to ship out closer to the 10th this month. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but don't worry, it will be worth the wait!
July heats up the colors this month in our kit, Cabana. Intense reds, yellows, and turquoises in papers from Crate, our Simple Stories exclusives, Jillibean, Bo Bunny, and Elle's Studio play against cool whites and the soothing neutrals of corrugated kraft words and symbols, cork arrows, and woodgrain circles. We added letterpress to our kits last month and it was so cool, decided to do so again this month. You'll love the little bit of nautical the Anchor letterpress adds!
Two sets of alphabets, one tiny simple font from Basic Grey and another fun and funky yellow sparkly chipboard from American Crafts give you plenty of possibilities. We've heard a lot of excitement from our message board about the exclusive You Are My Sunshine stamp included in this month's main kit. People love the clean and graphic image, and we have to agree!
Finishing off Cabana, we've added a small bag of turquoise glitter reminiscent of water sparkling from the sun, some lovely turquoise chevron ribbon from May Arts, a sunny yellow shipping tag, and some unique and elegant glass head slim pins. We think we've put together a kit that gives you all you need to scrap your summer photos.

| So before you kick back in your lounge chair, it's time to do some shopping. Don't forget, the Daisy Boutique is stocked with all the stamping, inking, misting, painting , and assembling supplies you might need to create with Cabana and add ons. |
| Bright and bold stripes from Bo Bunny were the inspiration for this add on we're callingStriped Awning. Jillibean's kraft frame Placemat balance out the bright colors perfectly, but we didn't stop there. Some very fun pinwheels from Crate Paper, shiny and sparkly Bo Bunny brads, a whole pack of corrugated kraft words from Jillibean (Christine thought they were so cute in the main kit, Cabana, she had to include more here!), a yard of parrot green ribbon, some tags and circle stickers from Lilybee round out this must have add on. |
| Lime Rickey is like that row of colorful cabanas lining the beach, it's our playful, primary-colored add on. You'll get more fun Jillibean Soup Happy Camper papers and two different products from Lilybee, the Embellishment Pack and a sheet of word stickers, perfect for this time of year. Also included are the very popular Crate plastic alphabets and number set from their Pier line and Dear Lizzy's button card, perfect for when you need that something extra. |
| What goes with cabanas better than sun, sand, and water? Not much, so we packed our patterned paper add on, Hammock with just that, lots of turquoise, kraft, and yellow! Bo Bunny, Elle's Studio, Crate, and Jillibean Soup to start with, all having these summery colors in common. You'll have plenty to choose from when you get your own Hammockthis month. |

| We've had a great response to our Day in the Life Project Life-style kits and we're always looking for ways to make them even better. For Day in the Life: July, we included the awesome exclusive cards from Simple Stories as well as some versatile tags from Pebbles. We've continued the trend of an exclusive letterpress card, this time featuring the same anchor as in the main, but for Day in the LIfe, you'll get both a lime and silver one. Stephanie's playful 3x4 cards are printed on an even thicker cardstock now, to give you more heft in your sleeve page protectors, and our exclusive stamp set of Arrow Labels are sure to be ones you'll use often. Embellishments like Prima's metal banner clips, round cork stickers, bling and pearls from Bo Bunny, and a length of cool silver twine make July's Day in the Life kit one that you really need to have! |
