Farewell May.

May has gone in the blink of an eye, wow.  Hello June!  June brings the end of my term with Scrapbooking from the inside out. It is a bitter sweet ending, I have enjoyed my time on the team and working with all the wonderful kits. I have loved digging deeper into my mind to tell stories behind some wonderful themes.  I am also looking forward to getting back to scrapping just for me for awhile, and with summer comes less time to meet deadlines in my opinion.  I do however look forward to still playing along with their great challenges and gathering inspiration from their nice community.

June's kit was about Optimism.  The kit pretty, with yellows and pinks.  I enjoyed the elements, especially the hot air balloons.  I had a lot of fun playing around and exploring the topic of optimism.  I think I came up with a few great keepers and have decided that after all is said and done, I will be putting together a special album just for my Scrapbooking from the inside out layouts.  They are personal and deep and something I will only share with a few.

 A lovely kit to end my time with SFTIO.  Go and check it out and perhaps pick the kit up yourself to play with:)

And now to share the first of the 5 layouts I made with it.

In this layout I journaled about my love for the city and suburban life but my wish to live somewhere more serene.  I am optimistic that one day I will find the place for me and for now I will just live in  the moment and love the place I am in!
