This month's release gives me all the feels for the upcoming season! Though it's still nearly 90 degrees, I'm already mentally ready for the holidays. Love the colors of the Project Kit called All the Feels!
Tina's kit is beyond gorgeous. It's called Gather and has so many fun details, can't wait to dive in more this month!
Love the layers and the images in the sets. Needing more time to sit and make and be. I realize it's gonna be a busy season, gotta get better at being intentional :)

September makes me think it's already time for the holidays. Usually I can't wait but since we moved out our 3rd child to college, one is off traveling the world, just 2 girls at home- I'm ready for the holidays! Here are a few pics of Sept KP stamps!
I've got a few Halloween projects I'm still working on but wanted to get this post up. I am always kicking myself for not taking enough Halloween pics and this may be the first year I don't have any kids dressing up for Halloween! :( MY WORD.
I'm gonna have to be digging through their baby pics now! How cute is all that tape?! My holiday kits came the other day, BEYOND ready! :)

Three projects this month, who am I? I am floored at how much good stuff comes out in a month, it's impossible to get through it all. Thankful for some hot days of AC indoors that make you want to scrapbook! :) Loved the school themes and the fun alphas!
Dalton, Walter and Shoreditch :) So many alphas!!!!
Main Project kit love!!
And some book / reading stamps that will be used lots and loved!

Too many cute sets this month!! Love the stylish 4th of July set- Made in the USA. Which is sold out already! Sets have been selling out quick so if you don't wanna miss out, be sure to subscribe!
A mix of fun summer sets! Too many cute ones to just use one! Tina's handwriting is always a fave!
And I mentioned Kira graduating last summer- finally documenting it here and there. Love using this main kit for her graduation. Probably not what KP was thinking when she designed it but so perfect :)

I've been a fan of Christine Herrin (EVERYDAY EXPLORERS) from WAY back! Like teaching classes at the Scrapbook Oasis in Irvine back when Elsie was one year old?!! Crazy. I love her work so much, she's beyond talented. She kindly sent me some stamps of the 2 things I love. Boba and Hawaii. Here are my projects :)
It's summertime in LA and though we've been busy on the weekends, the weekdays are mellow and it hasn't been crazy hot. I'm happy. I know I haven't posted personal things on this blog in forever. Kira has graduated COLLEGE and now works full time. CAM graduated high school 3 years ago. And CALEB graduated high school a month or so ago. Els will be in 8th grade and loves all things beauty :) Chris and I celebrated 21 years of marriage this year. <3 Mind blown... I know.

All things travel for May at Kelly Purkey! Can't wait to use more of these after this summer's adventures! My kids (though I only have 2 left in public school (and soon only 1!!! left) are off in 3 days. CAN'T WAIT!
This is a mix of the kits, mostly the California set, which unfortunately is sold out already! Hopefully she will have a restock.
This was the main kit. Such a cute idea. I've been torn on vacations lately- whether to put my phone away and just immerse myself in being away. I'm actually glad I had these few snaps to work with. I think it just needs to be a balance. Now coming home to print photos is the worse part about the whole scrapbooking thing. If I could find someone to appear with my photos in hand that woudl be amazing. That's pretty much my road block to getting stuff done!
Lastly a quick spread I made on Insta stories. I used to make classes for Studio Calico and Big Picture Classes... it was a long and tedious procedure. Insta story class is a whole other ball game. Quick and to the point. SOLD. :) Mix of sets, RIO alpha, I heart NY and Travelogue! :)

All the happy feels for this collection!
This is probably my favorite of the release! This card paired with these stamps are everything! Happy colors :)
And this set, which I thought I wouldn't need to use.. but my mom's cat died that weekend and it was all of a sudden perfect. ;(
And one last project featuring the alpha for the month, RUBY, some journaling lines and a LLP set about being a HOMEBODY! :)

March was all about FOOD! I used to take a lot of food photos but with this release, I realized I didn't have as many as I use to? What happened? Maybe more of 'in the moment' happenings. Possibly self concious about taking photos in public. IDK :) Anyways, these sets are sure to make me want to capture more yummy food :) Lots of cute Tina doodles this month! This one is my fave. Still need to get playing with it!
I can count on Elsie to document a ton of photos though. Is that what I have to resort to now? :)
here's the month's main kit. SO GOOD!
Also, there's a new inspiration gallery! Check it out! :)

On a roll this month, too many good sets that I had to play with! I'm always loving the love around this time of year and between Kelly and Tina, I'm more than covered with the cutest Val day sets!
May have gone a bit overboard with the Val day sets. I neeeeded to have them all on one page. TOO CUTE. Love these pics of Els and her BFF.
I also feel like I rarely use quotes anymore. Need to get better about that this year! I'm also challenging myself to make more than just my design team quota. So I'm really trying to just make some fun stuff for me. Or others, hence the valentine above :)
I didn't dip into this kit as much but I need to as I know I want to use it over the year. The theme is too good.

I know it's already 2019 but here are the stamp sets from KP! Made myself a little desk calendar from the Tina's months set and the 2019 set. I love how versatile it is. The little calendars can be used in planners, maybe bookmarks, progress trackers, lots of ideas coming to mind!
I also went ahead of the game with the Valentine Love note set... made a cute spread about my Valentine!
Also a Traveler's Notebook spread with so many fun stamps. Mixing Tina's stamps and KP's stamps (My favorite holiday set) is one of my favorite things!
