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!

PHEW! what a a weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!

i scrapped and cropped 'til i couldn't crop no more!

it was fun too! there was a crop at Serendipity and Scrapperie and Friday night boredom fighters at Scrapadilly and i was determined to finish stuff for all of them! oh Bonnie has some awesome scalloped albums in the store too!

And we played cards {Texas Hold 'em} at our friend's friday night, had birthday cake and played wiffle ball on Saturday night at another friend's house AND went to the inlaws and then went swimming sunday. no wonder i was tired last night! but we did have ice cream for dinner that night so yum!!!!

Let me tell you. I am in love with my kit from Simply Obsessed {2nd lo}and the new Websters papers {3rd lo}! check them out!!!

Well, it has been a long few weeks but FUN! the beach was awesome and the wine festival this weekend ROCKED!i had a blast but now it is time to get back to reality. OH! and we found an awesome place for sushi when we were looking at houses. YUMMY! it was so good. we put our house on the market so say a prayer for us or send some positive house selling vibes our way!

Here are a few things I have been working on. This one was for a challenge over at Simply Obsessed to have a 3D obect on your page. I used mostly Scarlet Lime goodies.





This one is for the HSS upload day. Celebrating St. Patty's Day with some green beer! how perfect is that felt fusion from Queen & Co.!?
