Summer Fun

It's time for a new monthly challenge at Stamp and Create and our theme is perfect: Summer Fun!!!  Well, it will be perfect for us soon...right now it's 75 with a cool breeze!  I'm not complaining, it's pretty perfect, but too cold for the pool which, for us, is synonymous with Summer Fun!

So what does the winner get?  An AMAZING prize from a fabulous store run by a wonderful lady!

Here is my bright creation using Peggy from Wee Stamps (I love her!).  As you can see, she has a bit of a burn as does little Grace right now! 

 

 

I can't wait to see your summer creations!

Make it Monday!

It's time for another open paper challenge at Make it Monday and this week our sponsor is extra special:  Kenny K!  I LOVE these images...they're so cute and cheeky! 

Here is my project...a journal for Grace...using Girl Reader:

 

The girls have only been out of school for two days but she already has several stories written in her book!  I'm so glad she likes it...now I just need to find time to make one for Izzy!

 

 

It's been raining nonstop for a few days (yesterday we had a break, finally!) and our sump pump broke, causing our basement to flood.  Unfortunately that means I have no POTW because I've been wet vac'ing for the past few days.  Oh me, oh my, I'm so sore!  My husband was in India and when he returned and hugged me, I thought I was going to cry!  Lol!  Poor guy, no hug AND a soggy basement!  What a homecoming!  At least there was pizza!!!!

 

Happy Monday and I do hope you get a chance to join us at Make it Monday this week!!!
