The "2 Girls, 2 Perspectives" Mini Album Class

July's Mini Album class (optional class kit available) is underway here at Citrus Twist Kits. This is a self-paced class that features 2 different mini albums from 2 designers using the class kit. At just $10 this class is full of ideas to create your perfect sweet mini and will be delivered to your email inbox as a 48-page ebook.

Here are a couple of mini album shares from Citrus Twist Design Girl WaiSam Ho. WaiSam is playing with our class kit this month. She mixed in stamping from April Joy Hill's "Hello Sunshine" stamp (available in the Citrus Twist store):

Little baby Ivan is so adorable!

Here is the class kit, available here for $41 plus shipping:

In this class designers Mira Wlosinska and Trina Craig share their individual approached on creating a mini album, each album a different size and approach. We have a private Facebook forum that you will be invited to join as part of this class to share your album progress and ask questions.

Here is a sneak from Trina's album with a little stitching, a lot of layers and some stamping:

We hope to see you in the classroom!

July Kit Reveal Day!

This month we are open for school with our "2 Girls, 2 Perspectives" Mini Album Class. Play along with us and see how two designers take two entirely different approaches with a mini album using our first-ever class kit. We hope you'll join us for this fun class:

Here is the Mini Album kit. It's available for those who want a kit and to follow along with the same materials that the 2 designers worked with:

July's "Are We There Yet?" Main kit is color-rich, features 8 patterned papers and a sheet of Studio Calico South of Market Herringbone vellum, plus wood veneer, flair, washi, wood chip, enamel dots and more. Don't forget that with Citrus Twist your 13th kit is free with 12 consecutive months of subscribing!

You'll be feeling "Sunkissed" with this month's Pocket Life kit. Here it is featuring Simple Stories new Good Day Sunshine 6 x 6 paper pad, 2 alphabets, photo sticker overlays and more:

"Oh. My. Heart." is this month's add-on kit, filled with sweetness! Check it out:

Our July "Best of Days" Embellishment kit will provide you lots of layering fun. The new layered border strips from Crate Paper's The Open Road make embellishing a snap:

You'll be able to greet the summer with July's "Hello Sun" PL Embellishment kit. From PL cards, to a cursive sticker alphabet and adorable puffy shapes from Evalicious, topped off with enamel dots, stars and hearts, you'll love the extras in this kit. It pairs beautifully with our "Sunkissed" Pocket Life kit:

If you just can't get enough Pattern paper, meet "This Way, That Way", July's pattern paper collection. You can pair this with our Main or PL kit:

This month we were lucky enough to have Design Girl April Joy Hill do some calligraphy for our stamps. You'll get one of her stamp sets in both the Main and PL kits plus we have this month's stamp subscription stamp (for sale individually, too) "Hello."

And, as always, Melissa has put together the reveal in video for those of you who want to see it all as she walks you through the kits. (Note: The Mini Album Class kit is not included in the video reveal.)
