The Challenge this week is to create something in the theme for Canada Day or the 4th of July...  Here is my project -  Please also watch for another project in this theme coming on Friday where I will be participating in a Canada Wide Blog Hop in this same theme with BLOG CANDY as well!!





Details are as follows: I used the Swiss Dots cuttlebug folder to emboss the base red cardstock - added some new ribbon I picked up at Hobby Lobby - My dad took me for a drive across the border! Cut the Maple Leaf out of White Cardstock and used the negative shape - I stamped the saying clebrate today with the PTI Mixed Messages sentiment - Ink and cardstock are PTI. I added a little bling and tada... finished card!

Little Red Wagon - Anniversary Card

The Challenge This week on Little Red Wagon was to make a anniverysary card - here is my project!

LRW - Dad's Day

Well it is time for another Challenge on the Little Red Wagon Blog... I have been dealing with a really nasty cold/sinus infection for about 6 days now... it is not going away... I think I am finally starting to feel a little bit better!  Anyhow here is the card I made for my Dad!  I hope he likes it!

I used a Hero Arts Stamp for the ties but coloured them and cut them apart... they are pop dotted off the card.  I aslso used a scalpy border from Bella and the Happy Fathers day is a Unity stamp!

My Challenge for this week on the Two Scrapbook Friends Forum  is to create a layout where you hide your Journalling. The background paper I used for this layout was so busy I decided to hide my journaling behind the photo on the layout!


Here is the layout with the Journalling Hidden:

And here it is with the Journalling pulled out!

I hope you can play along with us this week and I look forward to checking out your linked up projects!

Two Scrapbook Friends - Friendzy Friday (Bracelet)

Welcome to another Friendzy Friday!  Here I am using the little Wooden Spools that Two Scrapbook Friends have to make a bracelet!

 You will need some Patterned Paper (My Mind's Eye - Lime Twist), Twine, Buttons, Wooden Spools and String elastic.  First cut the patterned paper into 1/4" inch strips

 Then Glue them to the Wooden Spools You will also want to wrap some of the spools in some twine

Once the spools are all covered start to thread them on the Elastic String alternating colour choices and inserting buttons every once in a while

Once all the spools & Buttons are threaded onto the twine to create a long enough bracelet tie off the elastic  and voila!

You have a finished bracelet!!!
