Good Times! Shine on Me!

When I saw this picture of my Sister Debby's grandsons, I just new I had to scrap it.

The look on Evans face is just priceless!

I used Winni The Pooh and Friends cricut cartridge for the sun and film strip. The face on the sun was stamped with PKS.

I torn the paper and chalked the edges of the water.


The good times and Hot Hot title are chip board pieces from the Dollar Store.

Challenges that I will be entering are the following:

Getting Cricky: Simple Sunday: Shine on Me!

Fantabulous Cricut: Make a project with a sun.

Celebrate the Occasion: Make a project with a sun.

The Paper Variety: Summer has Begun.

Whimsical Wednesday: Fun with Colour

Must include the colours yellow and red .

My Pink Stamper Birthday Challenge!

I made this card for the challenge over at My Pink Stampers

Today's challenge is all about Birthdays. I decided to make a Center Fold card which is a blast to make and so quick and easy. Instruction for the card can be found at Splitcoast Stampers. I used 3 Birds on Parade for the sweet little bird on the front. All papers were from my scrap bucket. I inked all the edges in a light brown ink, added a bit of ribbon and bling, and now I have a cute little card for when I need it.

Thanks for stopping in. Have a wonderful weekend.

My Craft Spot Challenge! Happy Fathers Day to My Sweetie!

I cannot believe it is already Monday, which means it is time for another challenge over at My Craft Spot. This weeks challenge #12 is to create a project for fathers day.

I lost my father at a very young age. Dad was truly a great man and father, he was loved by everyone and even though we had very little money growing up he made sure that us three girls had everything that was important in life, especially Love! I have so many fond memories of my Dad and I miss him dearly. He was only 55 when he passed away. My hubby's father is also gone, so my card this week is for my wonderful husband ....... even if the old guy forgot my Birthday!!! That is two years in a row. I could understand if we had only been together for a few years, but we are talking 41 years in October.

I guess he can blame it on old age. LOL!

My card this week is called a Center Step Card, instruction for this card can be found over at Splitcoast Stampers, it was so easy to whip up and I just love the way it turned out! What is even better ........ is all the paper was from my very large scrap bucket.

Both the crinkled ribbon and twine can be purchased at My Craft Spot. Kimberly has so many lovely colours to choose from, in both the ribbon and twine. This week she has added some Beautiful New Ribbon colours to her collections and they look so yummy! How about Old Glory: which includes three great new colours, Cranberry, Vanilla Bean and Navy Blue or the 4th of July collection: Scarlet Red, Snow White and Navy Blue, last but not least she has the new Summer Vacation: collection which is Caribbean, Sandy Beach and Hot Pink! So make sure you pop over to My Craft Spot and check out the newest colours!

The bottom sentiment reads "You make my life sweet" which is from My Craft Spots Sentiment inside and Out Stamp Set which can also be purchased over at My Craft Spot .

Now it is your turn to show us all your wonderful Father Days Projects. Who knows what yummy candy Kimberly will have this week up for grabs .

I am also going to enter this card in the following Challenges:

Whimsical Wednesday #10- Dad's Day

Capturing A Moment of Time- Dad's Day

Thanks for stopping by and make sure you go check out the rest of Kimberly amazing Design Team projects!
