Here is the Bells & Whistles layout from June, for anyone who was unable to attend but picked up a kit or for anyone wanting to recreate it.
The squares are cut using the largest square stitched die. The photos need to be 3.5"X3.5" to fit nicely. The white sheet is 11"X10" and the sapphire strips are 1/4". The title is on the You are Here cartridge.
Here is the page with a few random photos on it, to show you a finished product. I also added the colored flower to the top. Not everyone in class likes to color, so this was an option - to an otherwise no coloring layout!
Just a little close up of the palm trees. I stamped them once on Kraft paper and one on green and lagoon paper. I trimmed the trunk off the green/lagoon cuts and popped the leaves on the full kraft cut. Behind the palm trees is the 'hello sunshine' stamp in Lemon. Consider raising it a bit on your layout, as the word sunshine becomes hidden on mine.

June Craft with Heart - Beautiful Memories
I am still loving the Craft with Heart kits! I am able to complete both layouts, with pictures, each month without any trouble - and it keeps me from going a whole month without scrapping!
Here I'm using some photos from out of the deep - the giant tub my mother has stored photos in for years. She's recently asked to help her move them out of the deep and into scrapbooks. I changed up the photo placement a little for this and added some of the loose rose gold sequins. I also pilfered the "of us" portion of the other layout and moved it to this one.

Colorful Chameleon
Card workshop for this Thursday includes this colorful chameleon.
I used paper from the Mix-in paper pack, stamped it in bright colors using the timeless textures stamp set, the stamped and cut the chameleon. The leaves are cut from the Flower market cartridge, the paper is from I heart Us paper pack, and the background if from the Defining You stamp set. When I created this post, all the links work even the I heart Us paper pack. Officially , it was retired as of April 30, but you could find it in the Going Soon! section where the remaining inventory of retired items linger until depleted!

Craft with Heart - Making Memories
Here is the other June Craft with Heart (subscription) layout.
I added some 2" dolphins from the You are Here cartridge, and switched up the photos a bit. The original instructions used one vertical 4X6 and three horizontal 3X4's on the right page. I also added an extra 3X4 on the left side.
The top layer of the dolphins was cut with silver glitter paper. I taped the background dolphins and popped the ones in the forefront.

Feels Like Home PML Cards
I created these 6 cards with card bases, the PML Feels like Home set and some ribbon and embellishments from my stash. I just played around with the layering until it looked right to me. You can work this magic with any set of PML cards.
These Picture My Life cards are still available for $6.50 in the Going Soon section.
