Love this new Summer Fresh line by Simple Stories

Hi Chicks
I just love this new paper collection by Simple Stories. It is called Summer Fresh and it has denim and red and yelow and all kinds of fun.



If you follow this link to their blog post, you can download a project sheet to make this wonderful mini album- for free from Simple Stories! How great is that?

This collection is also perfect for 12 x 12 scrapbooking of your favorite summer photos.

Have fun!
