Back To School Blog Hop!

Hello and welcome to the "Back To School" blog hop hosted by Audrey @scrappyemt. If you just happen to visit my blog and want to join the hop then click HERE to start at the beginning at Audrey's blog.

This is my first time participating in a hop, so if I do anything backwards, bear with me :). This is a small hop, but you will surely find some inspiration. I've stated in previous post that school starts next week here for my children. It's been a quick summer! I started the tradition of taking first day pictures when my son started school. I chose to do a LO that I will use this year.

I used Doodlecharms for the bus
Everyday Paper Dolls for the road
Lockertalk for all the rest of the cuts
The base cardstock is Bazzil. Patterned papers are unknown. I've had them for awhile. I cut some transparency on my cricut for the lens on the camera and the flash.
The notebook paper is from DCWV High School stack
The sentiment is from Emma @ my creative time
My title letters are thickers (root beer)

And.... What's a hop without some candy!



This stamp set from Inkadinkado!

The Perfect Pear



Hi!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. I wanted to upload and share this card before heading out for a busy day. Eye doctor appointments and more school shopping. School starts next Thurs. around here and this weekend is MS tax free weekend, so I'm gonna take advantage of that. I designed this card in my gypsy. I wanted to submit a project for the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Me Monday #70. The challenge is to use a melon or some type of fruit. I used a pear from Home Accents and cut each layer in a different color. I used some glossy accents on the seeds to make them look more real. The patterned paper is from Stampin Up and the ribbon is Offray. The sentiment is a dollar stamp I purchased at Joanns awhile back. Thanks so much for stopping by:).

Celebrate the Occasion Challenge #23


Hi
This is my second post for today. I want to share with you my project for challenge #23 @ Celebrate the Occasion. The challenge this week is any occasion, but you must use the colors blue and white. I made a simple card using a snowflake from the Joys of the Season cart. The patterned paper is from a Momenta paperstack I purchased last year. The smaller snowflakes are a EK Success punch. There are some beautiful submissions on this challenge. Check out their blog and play along.

I am also linking this project to Cricut Cardz Challenge. The theme is "Holiday anything goes"
