Ready 2 Rock

Our challenge at BBTB2 this week was to use the Ready 2 Rock cut from the Hannah Montana cartridge. It seems like a lot of us had the same idea with the guitar! Here's my card:

My dirty little secret

Gotcha thinking?
It's nothing that juicy. I'm supposed to be cleaning my dirty house today, but I'm scrapping instead!
These pictures are from when we stopped at Battleship Park on our way home from Disney last summer.

This tag is on the BBTB2 blog this week. Our challenge was to use a vintage image from Peggy Loves Vintage, and a tag from the TBBM cartridge.

Two new layouts

I feel like it's been forever since I created a layout instead of a card, so a couple of NSD challenges were just the bump I needed. I've had these pictures sitting on my scrap desk for QUITE a while. (along with a huge stack of photos).

A couple of new cards

I made these cards for the weekly post at Bitten by the Bug 2.

The first one had to use the ice cream tab cut off of the "From My Kitchen" cartridge. It actually has no ice cream on it. It is the frame with the three flowers cut on the side.

The second one had to use a bee. Mine came from the "Home Decor" cartridge.papers - Basic Grey June Bug

Come join us every week at BBTB2 for a great challenge!

What is the plural of octopus?

I actually looked this up because I always thought it was octopi. I found out I was wrong. The correct plural is octopodes. Huh. Learn something new every day.
I made this group of octopodes for Cooper's birthday at school. Not only is today his 9th birthday, it's also beach day at school, so I made some beachy cupcakes for him to take to class. These were so simple to make and I think they turned out pretty cute.

Good news!

I have been selected to be on the Bitten By The Bug 2 Design Team! I just love their site, the challenges are always filled with inspiration, and the creations are always amazing.

I'm so excited to get started, and my first contribution will be on the site next Sunday. :-)
