Happy Place Collection | Giveaway + Freebie

Hello June, I am so happy you are here.

Hello to every one of you.  I have missed you.  I have been away to long. 

May was a blur.

May was rough.

My Aunt passed on the fifth, homeschool testing, record keeping and prepping for a new homeschool year, baseball, baseball, baseball tournaments, so much house building stuff has been happening and to top of an already rough month, the devastation of tornadoes here in the state I call home. My heart goes out to all those effected.

I am ready. 

I have been busy drawing up plans of what I hope to accomplish here in this space. More on that later.

While I haven't been blogging, I have been playing around in photoshop bits at a time.  It has been hard to focus for long periods, as there has just been so much going on.

Hoping all my pondering and doodling will put a smile on your face as it did mine.

This is why I am calling this kit "Happy Place".

Maybe its the color...

Maybe its the rosettes...

No its the daisies...

Maybe its the ribbons...

Maybe its the tags...

Maybe its the fun I had creating the frame cluster...

Maybe its the sunshine...

Yes that's it...

Maybe its the scalloped edge papers that inspired the scalloped edge journal cards...

Yes...

Yes...

Honestly after such a rough and sad month this helped me get back to my creative happy place, mentally and physically.

And now for this months giveaway! Meet "Happy Place", my June collection.  This collection is my biggest yet and is jammed packed full of flowers, ribbons, buttons, doilies, scalloped edge journal cards, patterned papers, scalloped edge papers, borders, triangles, frames, string, sunshine, tags, pushpins, so much goodness I couldn't get it all in the preview. Not counting the papers and cards, you get 45+ elements. Not bad huh?  Yay!  I'm excited for you.

To enter to win this kit full of digital goodies simply leave a comment then using a random generator I will post the lucky winner Sunday night at 10 pm central time. Good Luck.

And now something for everyone. A cluster using the Happy Place kit.
