Hi Crate Fans! We here at Studio Calico are THRILLED to be collaborating with Crate Paper once again. You might remember that Crate designed some exclusives for our February kit, and they've done it again for our August kit. BOARDWALK features two beautiful double sided papers made by Crate Paper - and you'll only see them in this kit! Our design team loved the Crate exclusives & couldn't wait to use them! Here's a little peek at what they've made with the papers. You can see the full projects in our BOARDWALK gallery.
We want to give one of YOU a chance to work with these awesome papers as well - so how about a giveaway?! We've reserved one of our BOARDWALK kits for a lucky Crate fan! Please leave us a comment telling us what you the color "blue" reminds you of and how you'd go about playing with it! We'll select our chosen winner on Monday, so you've all weekend to participate! We look forward to reading your responses!
Thanks, Crate, for working with us this month, and for letting us visit your blog! And to all you fans - the Studio Calico crew LOVED the new Crate Lines, and I'm pretty sure you'll see them in upcoming kits. ;)
The color blue reminds me of beautiful eyes, skies, M&M's, and Sapphires...that is quite a range of color for blue, but I love them all!

A turquoise blue, my fave, reminds me of a tropical ocean. One day I hope to have towels that color in my bathroom!

Blue reminds me of calm, so that would leave a lot of scrappy options! Maybe a LO or two of my son & his "blue" eyes.

They are so beautiful! The blue reminds me of the ocean, or pool. They would be perfect for all of the swimming lessons and pool pictures from this summer! Thanks for the chance! :)

Blue reminds me of peace. I'd love to use these papers for my honeymoon pictures as we went to the Caribbean and they would be perfect!

Blue reminds me of relaxing; peaceful and quite pool or ocean. I'd defintely scrap pics of my little one in the pool. Thanks for the chance!

The colors in this kit are perfect for summer pictures at the lake or fishing adventures, because the water in these photos is usually nowhere close to true blue, it's more greenish blue like the colors here and these will complement them perfectly! Plus how can you go wrong when you mix the two best colors - green & blue!

Blue reminds me of the ocean. Probably because I live near it and I'm a marine biologist. In 10 days, we are going to stay at a rented house near the beach with my parents, my brother and his family (the same beach we used to visit when my brother and I were growing up). I would use the kit to scrap pictures of my son and nieces playing on the beach.

Blue, right now, reminds me of the water in Mexico and how much I wanna go back. Soooo... I'd scrap Mexico-photos! :D
Thanks for the chance to win! :D

Blue makes me think of sunny spring skies, not summer... to hot for me ;) I would scrap some everyday type of photos, they are my favorite pages to do.
Posted by: Laurel S | July 29, 2011 at 06:22 AM
I probably use BLUE more than any other color on my scrapbook pages. I scrap mostly about my son and Blue is the color of choice

My Mom loved blue. She wore blue, decorated with blue...even her wedding china had a wedgwood blue rim. I'm a little blue missing my mom. My son's favorite color is blue. Our new pool is blue. Blue is good.
