A Rainbow of Summer Color with Aimee Mertell

Hello Elle’s Studio friends! It’s Aimee here with a bright and fun 9 x 12 inch pocket page to share with you all featuring the new June 2021 kit and add-ons

Supply List: June 2021 Kit, Summer Label StickersAcetate Star Stickers, Celebrate Summer Stamp

I recently went out and purchased the kiddos—and who am I kidding—MYSELF! some summer play equipment. The kids got scooters and my husband and I chose skateboards. I of course snapped a few photos of us having fun outside and love the way the June Kit compliments their summer vibe. 

I used the Celebrate Summer Stamp to stamp out “Celebrate Summer” on the rainbow 3 x 4 inch tag that served as my color inspiration for the whole spread. To add pops of those purple hues, I added labels from the Summer Label Stickers in a triangle around the page. 

To pull in some blue from the rainbow striped tag, I added blue Acetate Star Stickers. The “This Weekend” checklist tag from the June Kit was a perfect for the page and I marked the most appropriate selection—play all day! 

I then decided to make my own journaling tag using the Celebrate Summer Stamp—okay you caught me, there is one exactly like this in the June Kit, but I may have made an oopsie on it! Have no fear, though, because it can easily be recreated with the stamp set! I selected a beautifully coordinating cranberry ink and repeat-stamped the “collecting adventures” circle in the corner of my blank 3 x 4 inch cardstock piece and then adorned it with a yellow arrow and an orange label, again to pull those rainbow colors all around the spread. 

This layout just screams summer and I’m in love with its vibrant colors. How many colors do you typically use on one layout? I challenge you to use a rainbow of color on your next project and see just how fun it can be. Until next time, happy creating!
