Scrapbook Sunday: Playing with the June Messy Box

This week I spent a little time playing with the June Messy Box. It was so much fun! Basically everything you see here besides the Monroe photo sleeves (they'll be back in stock soon) is from the June Box.

I made a couple pages with recent (mostly Instagram) photos. I feel like with the busy season (getting ready to move, lots of projects, etc.) the best thing for me to do is just keep it VERY simple and make some pages about life right now.

Above I mixed some of our 3x3 cards with random photos of happy times recently.

I really love the little mix and match sticker sheet that comes in this month's Messy Box. I am using those everywhere! And the little chipboard stickers are adorable.

I promised in the unboxing video that I'd show you how to use the screens that come in this month's box. They are REALLY fun and you can use them over and over! Here's how-

It's like a giant mesh sticker, so just peel it off...

... stick it to whatever surface you want to print on (I used a 4x6 card from the Messy Box)...

...Add some acrylic paint to the edge of the screen....

... and swipe it with an old gift card or a piece of cardboard or plastic till the paint completely covers the surface of the screen...

... next, peel the stickers off and rinse it with water & wipe with a paper towel before sticking it back on the sheet it came on...

... Ta-Da! It's so cute. This paint is extremely light body, but you can use any acrylic paint (or even fabric paint- wohoo!) with these screens. (Let's make t-shirts next!)
