Sisters Rule

I created this LO for one of the Technique Tuesday challenges over at Scraps of Color. I used a picture of me and my two sisters, I don't know the exact year but I do know that it was Christmas Day and we were at a family dinner! I love this picture of us especially since it is one of the few pictures I have of the three of us. I used misc pattern paper and some foam stickers from the $1 zone at Target. I picked the embellishment up from ACM a few months back.

Chicago Cows

We recently went to Chicago for a family reunion. I took pictures of these cows in the Midway Hotel Center where we had the reunion. We have had fish here in Richmond and mermaids in VA Beach.

Christmas in July

Over at Scraps of Color, the weekend card challenges for the month of July was to create various holiday cards. Card challenges included a blue Christmas card, a card with a Christmas tree (non-green), a card with no red or green and finally a Kwanzaa card. Don't be surprised if you receive one of these cards this holiday season!

Family Reunion

I created this LO using pictures from a recent family reunion for a posted challenge sketch over on the Cricut MB. I used the cricut for the circles and most everything else was scraps from some misc. paper packs and buttons.

Hattitude

DD recently went to the theatre to see the play CROWNS. It's a play about hats, DD was invited to the play by her aunt. They went to dinner and then to the play with a group from my SIL's church.

First T-Shirt

I made this t-shirt for my daughter to wear at one of our family reunions. Although it isn't personalized with the family name, it is uniquely hers with her name on the back! I'm so proud of myself for stepping out of my comfort zone! I used my cricut to cut the vinyl. A very special thank you to Nubian from the cricut board for her inspiration and assistance.

Gratitude Journal

Over at Scraps of Color during the month of June we had a Gratitude Journal challenge whereas we were to scrap and journal our gratitude. It was a great exercise as sometimes we take so much for granted. I have completed the entire 30 days of journaling but I still have to scrap my entries. I wanted to share this one which is about my oldest sister. I am grateful for her!
