limeLIGHT Sketch and Product Challenge

Happy Friday Morning! What a week it has been! Fun but tiring for sure!

Thank you for stopping back today to see the card I made for limeLIGHT's sketch and product challenge. You already know that the challenge is ribbon. I just couldn't quite decide what to do with the SKETCH. I decided to go simple and a little out of my norm. I chose to use October Afternoon Cherry Hill patterned paper and the Cherry Hill rub-ons that match. The ribbon is a lovely 5/8" yellow textured ribbon.

Following are the details of the challenge...

The Details:
**Use the sketch provided and dress it up with RIBBON!
**Key word for SCS upload is LLPC024
**Post a comment with a link to your card on Mandy's blog by Sunday, June 28 at midnight (or before winner is drawn Monday a.m.).
**PRIZE ~
Five yards of ribbon of the winner's choice! (Winner is chosen randomly from all participants.)

Now...go, make your card with the sketch and some ribbon and link it up so you can have a chance to win that ribbon! Be sure to go to the design team member's blogs for more inspiration! I have them all linked up for you in my side bar...enjoy!

Have a wonderful Friday everyone!

VBS Thank You

Good morning everyone! I trust that your day was pleasant yesterday. My day was quite productive...I got a lot done which is nice.

You all know that VBS is this week at my church, right? Well, as the Director of Children's Ministries I recruit the people that help with VBS. My co-director and I always do a little something at the end of the week for our station leaders as they really devote a lot of time and energy into VBS. This year to help hold costs down I decided to make these cute bags, put some candy in them, and give them to the station leaders. Ann (my co-director) bought some super cute, little, magnetic glass alligators to give to them as well so I put those in the bag, too. I made all different colors, used the opposite pattern for the handle and then I think I plan on using the SU! single Thank You stamp and just putting that on the front. I left these at the church though so I had to get a picture yesterday. If you want to see the completed project just leave me a comment and I'll be sure to come back and add a photo.

Directions on how to make this bag are HERE. Those directions show you how to make a super cute lid with the scallop envelope from SU! as well.

My box of new Stampin' Up! catalogs arrive today! That was just a teaser for my SU! customers. I know a couple of them are really looking forward to seeing it!

I hope you will come back tomorrow to check out my limeLIGHT Papercrafts card. The challenge is ribbon...who doesn't love ribbon? This should be an easy one for everyone!

Well, I'm off to get ready for day #4 of VBS. Have a super day everyone!Toodle Pip

Goin' Buggy Again!

Good morning everyone! It is Wednesday and what does that mean? We are on the downside of the week. Yay!

I got a chance to stamp last night so I thought I'd show ya. First, I wanted to use my Gone Buggy set from Sweet N Sassy stamps so I got that out. Then, I remembered I got my Taylored Expressions Key Ingredient Kit for June the other day so I pulled it out knowing that it had some super fun colors that I could use with the caterpillar. What do those two things together equal? This card! Isn't it cute? I love the bright colors and the sentiment(s) are so perfect! And, the layout is the Mojo Monday sketch for this week.

There you have it and now I'm off to another day of VBS. I'm hoping to be able to show you the station leader gifts I've made tomorrow and then my card for the limeLIGHT Papercrafts sketch and product challenge on Friday so be sure to check back!

Have a super day!

Teachers and Dads

Morning everyone! Since I didn't post yesterday I thought I'd post today, real quick, and show you what I made for end of year teacher's gifts that I made.

For Kyler's PE teacher, the school secretary, and the principal I just made bought some Hershey's Nuggets, wrapped them in paper and then made a holder out of my Scallop Circle that I ran through my big shot. Tie with a little ribbon and I was all set!

I also made a fun little chocolate book for his teacher. Before anyone asks, I got the directions HERE. You can also see what it says inside at that link so check it out! It is a fun project that any chocolate lover would love to receive!

And a special Happy Father's Day to any dads that are reading my blog. I don't think there are but make sure you treat your man right today!

I will be really hit and miss this week on blogging with VBS I just won't have as much time to create. I will for sure see you on Friday for the limeLIGHT sketch and product challenge! Have a super Sunday!
