The Excitement is Building!

Woohoo!  It's almost CTMH New Idea Book Time ... tick, tick, tick until August 1!  Today I've grabbed some fun leftovers from convention from the new paper pack Sarita.

Happy Monday and What a FUN challenge we have for you today at ABC Challenge Blog #38!  Grab your closest scraps and come up with a quick and easy card.  It doesn't even have to be quick and easy but scraps are everywhere and they make really cute cards.   Tonight I was scrappin' so I just grabbed the leftovers and put them together for a card - nice!    I hope you'll come and play this week ....

Supplies:  CTMH Sarita, CTMH Stamps M1029 A True Thank You, CTMH Ink Gypsy, Outdoor Denim, CTMH Lagoon Houndstooth Washi Tape, CTMH Sparkles

To Infinity ...

and BEYOND!  Woohoo,  it's once again Friday and I'm here showing off our Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge #53 color choice for this week -- Gypsy, Blush and Sorbet.   These colors worked perfectly for the photos I was scrapping of a fun visit to Disney Hollywood Studios.   My youngest DS stood in line for over an hour to see Buzz LightYear and Woody, LOL!   It doesn't surprise me though because we watched that movie when he was growing up enough times to quote it all by heart.  What fun memories.   I can even remember one Christmas ... it was all Buzz LightYear.

Supplies:  CTMH CS Slate, Gypsy, Blush and Sorbet,  CTMH Stamps Picture Perfect, CTMH Ink Slate, Black,  CTMH Cricut Cartridge Artiste

My Favorite

Yup ... Fridays!   Hope it's a good one for you!   This week included some travel for work and it just makes the work seem longer so it's time to CELEBRATE Friday!  

What could be a better way to enjoy the day than with our Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge #52.  This week we're rockin' the colors of Twilight, Ruby and Olive.   I also grabbed my CTMH Artiste Cricut Cartridge and used the Rose Blossom Garden Challenge #8 - the "G" Key. 

Happy Weekend!

Sneak Peak ... Laughing Lola

oooohhhhh ...   it's always fun to see what's new and fun coming soon.  I got to play at Convention with the new CTMH paper Laughing Lola coming out in the next catalog.  It has such great colors.  I  had just a few scraps left from a CUTE mini-book we made with diecuts from the new CTMH Cricut Artbooking Cartridge.  Tonight I was able to make it work with the few pieces I had left. 

The sketch is MOJO Monday #300  (Congrats Mojo for 300!),   I stamped the square background for the challenge at Twist of Faith this week.   I also used the "K" Key for the fun challenge at the Rose Blossom.  It cuts a really cute spiky circle and butterfly.
