There is nothing like the bright yellow sunshine of summer...until you add in the other two primary colors of red and blue...this great combination makes for lots of summer paper fun this month.  The pages and cards we are doing in July feature the Tommy paper pack and there are so many creative options.  (There is one design of the patterned paper that has a more nautical feel with anchors, etc.  If you aren't into that, you can use the opposite side which is a blue and gold diagonal stripe..)  Many people have used this paper selection for patriotic and fathers day.  With the desert sand cardstock as a base on the pages you really can do pretty much any beach scene with these layouts.  (save some of your photos for the surf's up layouts in August though...I love those pages... pictured below.) 
 The canvas shapes are a great accent to these Tommy pages.

For our Creative Class schedule I am pushing things to the end of the month because of holidays, etc.  So this is the plan:
              Thursday, July 25 I will do 2 classes....12:30 and again at 6:30 at my home in Orem
              Tuesday, July 30 I will start at 5:30  (at this time it looks like we might be doing this class in
                                                                      Mapleton...will have to update this as it gets closer)

Cost:  $21 if you do the 4 pages and 4 cards   OR   $20 if you choose only to do the pages (no cards)

Because I have July and August classes pretty close together, I am posting the pictures for both classes.  So here are the August Surf's Up layout and cards.  Same cost.

                                                       July also marks the end of the spring catalog.  I will be getting the new catalogs soon and I am so excited to work with the new paper, etc. for our classes in the fall.  Design time already.  Can't wait.
