Pool Party

Here is a layout I completed last week using Imagine - Role Play on page 106

I used this super fun, bright paper from We R Memory Keepers - I think it's called Frenzy? I also used the number 5 Solo, Hodge Podge Alphabet, and Do Nothing stamp sets.

Thanks for looking!

Fair Entries

Here are the projects the girls and I are entering in our county fair this week - wish us luck! Oh, and just so you know, my girls did their projects all on their own. I was very impressed with how well they did by themselves, especially their bead projects. They came up with the pattern all on their own and had fun stringing the beads, I only helped them tie off their bracelets - they can't wait to wear them once the fair is over!

Quick summer-themed projects

I haven't had much time to create lately, so I'm really going through withdrawals ;-P But here are some quick projects I have done lately - both done in less than 30 minutes!

Here is a thank you card/book I made for one of the families we were camping with last weekend - to say thanks for the boat rides. The girls made their own contribution to the book and there are 10 pics inside. I finished it up with my BIA - I love that blue little tool - perfect for making custom books!

And here are the super quick invites I did for Brianna's b-day party. I just printed them up on my computer and did a quick stamp job - love that fun little Splash stamp set. Sorry for the bad pic - it turned out with a really blue hue - it's really on white paper - I used a blue strip to cover the party details, though. And yes, it says no gifts, please - my girls have SO many toys, they don't need more, or maybe I'm just a really mean mom ;-)

June Challenges

For the last two years, I have done a 'Cherish Challenge' with my customers, and then when Imagine came out last year, I added another challenge. I'd like to invite you all to participate now! Here's how it works - at the beginning of each month, I announce which layouts from Cherish and Imagine that we are going to be doing. I will also post my example. You then create the layout using your choice of theme, papers, orientation, etc. and send me a link or a picture of your layout. I will even accept pages that you have previously done, as long as they use that month's layout. I will draw a name from all participants and the winner will get a fun bundle of cards at the end of the month. It's fun to see the different results from the same layout! I have posted my layouts before, but June really snuck up on me, so I had to pick a layout we haven't used before in our Challenges - I promise next month will be new layouts by me, even though that's not a requirement for these challenges ;-)

For the month of June...
