EEEEKKK! Guess what today is!?! THE 15TH!!! You know what that means! A new La-La Land Crafts Club Kit!! Can you tell I'm excited?
This months Club Kit is camping themed! Perfect for this Alaskan girl!
How cute are these bears!?! I wanted to put them on something that could be useful in a camper. So I made a little box for storing hot chocolate packets =)
This box was SUPER easy to make! If you would like to see the tutorial I wrote on how I made this, you'll have to sign up to be a Club Kit member.
I will however, tell you the dies and coloring details =)
Let's look at all the stamps that come with the Club Kit this month.
The sentiments are so cute!
There are 3 choices for Club Kit subscriptions. You can purchase just the dies for $29.99 a month, just the stamps for $19.99 a month or the entire Club Kit for $39.99 a month.
I also made a card for today's release.
I had fun creating this little camping scene for Marci. She is so cute in her little camo shirt.
The camping papers I used are from a local stamping store here in Palmer, Alaska. They have the best selection of papers!

Hi everyone! Today I have a mixed media project to share with you. Oh this project. It has been a thorn in my side! Before I go on, I'll show you a picture of how it turned out.
I had a love hate relationship with this little house. Andrew built it in June. One day of girls camp for the 8-11 year old's was held at our house. Andrew made bird house kits for all the girls. He put one together so they would know what their house should look like when they were done putting it together. This thing has sat on my table since then.
I had originally wanted it to be Shabby Chic. I put a layer of Gesso on it and looked at it for days. I had no ideas. I tried painting bricks on it. NOPE. Didn't like it...covered it with Gesso. I decided to leave the house white and I painted the roof brown. HATED IT! On went another layer of Gesso...thank goodness for Gesso!
I got ahead of myself and adhered the gears on the house before I painted and textured them and the house. It looked boring. So, I pried them off.
Keep in mind, this all happened over the span of two months. I would look at the house every day trying to figure out what I wanted to do with it.
Thankfully, I was finally inspired! It was Renea, she had posted a gorgeous layout in the DT group. As soon as I saw her layout, THE LIGHT TURNED ON!! The colors were perfect!
Once I had been inspired, there was nothing getting in the way of me working on this little house. (Except for drying time.)
It felt so good to FINALLY have the mojo to get going.
I painted the house brown using acrylic paint and a mostly dry paint brush to get that worn/streaky look.
I added texture to to the gears, by covering them with Tim Holtz Opaque Crackle Texture Paste, sprinkling Rose Gold Glass Microbeads over the top of that while it was wet and letting them dry. When the gears were dry, I painted them with Rusty Paper.
I covered the roof with duct tape and added little dots of hot glue to imitate bolts. After that, I added a layer of Gesso, let it dry, and then painted it with Rusty Paper.

I really love this coloring of Santa's Helper Baby Luka. Sometimes I surprise myself =) The baby blue is so bright and cheerful (Copic combo listed below).
