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 waters off the Florida Keys....when I was a young adult....without a care in the world. Blue reminds me of a peaceful time when It was just me.
I'm thinking I might want a nice altered item for my hall wall. It's bare right now- and those blues go nice with my color scheme!

Blue reminds me of my childhood...I hated pink and every time my mother tried to make me wear it I would yell...*I want blue*!!! It's still my favourite colour.

Blue. Soft baby blue that my little boy was always bundled in as a baby. That was almost five years ago now!

blue...water, swimming, the beach, the sky, the color of my husband's eyes, my daughter's favorite shorts...really, how could you go wrong with blue?

Blue reminds me of my hubby and daughter! It is their favorite color and would love to scrap some of their "together" pictures :)

Not only does blue remind me of the beautiful waters of the Caribbean, it reminds me of my teenage daughter's gorgeous blue eyes. I could get lost in them! <3

Blue reminds me of the beautiful water we played in this Saturday in our first fishing/kayaking adventure - and tons of pictures that will need to be scrapped.

Blue reminds me of the ocean and my favorite place Maui! I love using blue on my boys pages since it's their favorite color!

Blue.... as in "keep Tahoe blue"! Tahoe is where I married my best friend, and where our loving little family started! Blue is the perfect color for scrapping summer for those I love. :)
Awesome collaboration, btw! I *love* SC and Crate!

Blue is my favourite coor, ever. It reminds me of my desk and cupboard, that i´ve just painted turqouise-blue. Thanks for this amazing give-away:)

Blue to me is so many things!! I think of all of the WONDERFUL worldly creations that god has created for us (ocean, lakes, rivers, sky, birds, flowers the list goes on) Then I think of wedding day something blue. Memories like the day my son was born, my wedding colors, my grandma's house. Then there are the sad things that go with the color blue tears, bruises, ect. BLUE MEANS ALOT TO ME!! THANKS for sharing and for the chance to win!!
Have a FABULOUS WEEK!! =)

Blue! My favorite color! Every shade is just so perfect and reminds me of the Caribbean ocean of which I have lots of pictures to scrap!

For me, the color blue always reminds me of the ocean where I grew up. I love the colors in this kit. They remind me of the Oregon coast on an overcast day.
