Happy Camper!!

When I got my last DT box from Imaginisce, I was so excited to see the CUTE Happy Camper range! It was love at first sight, a really cute BOYISH range, and I couldn't wait to get stuck in to it. Here's what I came up with...


I have SO MANY photos of the kids fishing with my dad, but this one has got to be one of my favourites. I just love the expressions on my dad's and Emmy's faces. We always throw the fish back in, and Em always gives them a pat to send them off while dad is holding them, so cute! Jack, of course, refuses to touch either the fish or the bait, and I don't think anything could make him give one a pat!

Here's a little close of of the clouds. These are actually from a pack of die cuts that go with the range...


And now for some very boyish pages! I was lucky enough to be sent a Cricut Expression a little while back (I'm spoilt, I know!) and I got to give it a good work out on these pages...


The lettering for "happy camper" was cut on the Cricut, using the Plantin SchoolBook cartridge, and the "Great Outdoors" title was from the die cut pack.


I cut the little stick with circle thingys at the side of the photo using the Accent Essentials cartridge, and then layered over it some Hessian Lollipops from Purple Pumpkin...


And I hadn't made rolled flowers for a while, so I popped one of those on top of my embellie cluster too, and added some little cardstock circles, popped up on a bit of foam tape, to the circle stick thing to give it some extra oomph...


And, another Jack layout...as soon as I saw the "Tree Hugger" die cut, I just knew I had the perfect photo to go with it...


Lol, how perfect is that?! I've been hanging onto that photo for ages, so I'm glad I finally got to scrap it :) I used the sketch from the Purple Pumpkin May Challenge for this layout. I just love that sketch so much, I just want to keep using it! And the Cricut had another workout on this page too, for the little deer in the right bottom corner, and for all the leaves...


Used some more Purple Pumpkin Hessian Lollipops on this layout, they just go so perfectly with this range! And, isn't that little Bear Canvas Sticker just adorable? I have a bad habit of saving the cutest embellies for "just the right page", and then never end up using them, so I'm just making myself use things straight away now!


So...want to see some more creations using the Happy Camper range? Then head straight over to the Imaginisce Blog for loads of inspiration, and even a giveaway or two :)
