Summer Photo Shoot

Happy Wednesday! I just wanted to share my layout for the My Mind's Eye blog challenge and and some punches from Just Imagine Crafts and myStampBOX stamps. I looved this sketch and got a bunch of MME with my Scrapbook Trends goodie box and these colors where just talking to me, saying "scrap me!"

background cardstock is Core'dinations Core Impressions.

I used a photo strip stamp from myStampBOX on here. I lined it up, stamped it and then cut it out. Then, I lined up my Just Imagine Crafts butterfly punch and punched away. Then I used the punched butterfly and alternated it in the photo strip. I also used my dauber and Shimmerz on the ticket (used it as a tab here) and the Uniquely You diecut.

Cuttlebug Be Inspired Challenge No. 82 AND a Kiki Art Winner!!!

What a CRAZY week! NSD is over, Phillies bus trip is over and I have two give-a-ways to do! So....I will do one today and one friday :) How does that sound?

AND it's Cuttlebug Challenge Blog Be Inspired #82! AND today's theme is.........Mother's day! yeah for all those moms out there...ah, the many hats we wear on a daily basis just amaZes me. Who would have thought that I would have been a mom....it's so crazy. Anywho, that is a whole 'nother subject, LOL!

Here is the Mother's day Card I made for the Cuttlebug Challenge Blog today. All the goodies came from my Serendipity Scrapbooks IDIA kit. It is LOADED with Crate Paper Brook Collection and MME products so grab yours...it is awesome.

You know me and my die-cuts, LOL! I ran these MME stickers through my Cuttlebug. The secret is using wax paper. You put the sticker on a piece of wax paper, run it through and then peel it off. Some of it may stick but nothing that will ruin it. OH! and I added a myStampBOX stamp on there, too. I LOVE this Straightforward stamp set, it has all the sentiments you need. Make sure you check out the mSB site for a give-way and AWESOME inspiration. Seriously...they have such good ideas on their blog. Stamping is NOT boring over there.

I just love the texture on these stickers! And I used some Core'dinations Cardstock and the Note card folder as the background.




AND NOW FOR THE RANDOM WINNER OF MY KIKI ART GIVE-A-WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Sunday!

I rarely post on Sundays, LOL...

esp when we are golfing ;) so i am doing this on Saturday and scheduling it...i have been participating in the Scrapperie and Scrapadilly crops this weekend and I saw this My Mind's Eye challenge and I just had to scrap with all this inspiration!

When I saw the challenge at MME, I had to jump on it. I live in area where so few people care about recycling and the environment that i could just SCREAM! they don't pick up recycleables here so people just throw them away b/c driving to the center {which is 30 secs from the school and they can drive their kids to school} is just toooooooooooooooo far. And more..kids growing up not knowing that their actions directly effect the lives of so many, including themselves....there's more but I don't want to go there here... ;0

So this is where it went for me ;) It sums it up, I think.

All patterned papers and the diecut are from My Mind's Eye...I rolled the pieces around a thin paintbrush and then layered the tag over them...just for something different...they remind me of scrolls and time and all that plays into the challenge. I also used the NEW Core'dinations Core Impressions Jenni Bowlin cardstock SOON to be released!

I put my letters through my Cuttlebug! Just put them on wax paper and they come right off!

So who has had the chance to play with some of the new MME Bloom & Grow or Penny Lane? I did, I did! pick me, pick me, LOL!

I got all of mine from HSS, Sharon ordered every single snippet of it. I am not normally a frame kinda girl with diecuts but i couldn't resist these. And MME has the best diecuts. OH! and if you are a Cricut user, you should check out HSS b/c she always has the latest and greatest cartridges and preorders with THE BEST prices out there.

these projects are mostly Bloom & Grow and I added some Dream Street Rubons here.

I thought this would make a cute little gift set. When i saw this paper, it immediately reminded me of butterflies.

and this layout cracks me up...check out this shirt....this is one of many photos i have of henry in this! LOL! but this is a layout about how he picks up every teeny tiny piece of paper, crumbs, rocks...whatever is on the floor! it is too funny...i guess i better yell at the scrubster to vacuum more! ;) This is a mix of MME and Dream Street goodies...
