Pink by Design Challenge 10, 11 and 12

Whew!!
Is everyone else as exhausted as I am?!?!  I decided to write the last three challenges all in one post.  Challenge #10 is the challenge I created called "Go Wild"!  I made a layout from our trip to the zoo!




Click here for all the details of this challenge and layout!

The next challenge is a Single Layer Card.  I realized that I don't have any background stamps (I am going to have to do something about that!!)  I did have this little gift stamp and sentiment from Take the Cake and It's a Wrap 2.  It's really simple but would make a cute little card to stick to a gift!



The final challenge of the day is "Inspiration is Everywhere".  You are supposed to find something in your home and use it to inspire your project.  Well, after being locked up in my craft room all day, my kids had a great time tearing through the house and leaving quite a mess!! (My husband was with them but there is only so much you can do).  I decided to use my kids as my inspiration for this card, LOL!
 
They can be like a crazy tornado but at least they have fun and I enjoy them immensely!!  Find Joy Everyday is from the set "Enjoy the Journey"!

Here are my two little tornadoes!! They were more than happy to hold the project they inspired, LOL!

I hope you enjoyed the challenges today!!  Made sure you join us 8p.m. CST for the U-stream!  We are going to let you know if you are one of our lucky winners!! Lots of prizes!!

Pink by Design Challenge #9

Buttons!!!  All you have to do in this challenge is use one or more buttons on any project!!  I placed the buttons where I wanted them and then drew my own petals.  I actually love the look of it :-)  The stamp set I used is called "To the Moon"!

Pink by Design Challenge #8

Hello!
This challenge is to use a ribbon or make a bow.  I decided to use the PBD twine and the Everyday Banners stamp set for this cute recipe card holder.  The cuts are from the Silhouette online store!  I tied the twine into a bow so I think that counts ;-)


Here is a yummy recipe for crockpot S'mores!

Enjoy!!

Pink by Design Stamp Release Blog Hop!

Hi Everyone!
Thank you for joining us today on this fun hop to check out all of the amazing Pink by Design Stamp Releases!  If you are coming from Melisa, you are in the right spot. Just in case you lose your way or want to go back for a second look, here is the line up:



I am LOVING these new stamps being released by the super talented Sarah Hamer over at Pink by Design!    I decided to put a card together using the new set called "Sweet Grams 2".  These sentiments are made especially to be paired with different candies, but I decided to put a different spin on mine :-)


I found this adorable heart puzzle in the Silhouette store and knew it would be perfect for the sentiment!  The little cupid is also in the store and added a fun splash of color.  I used my Martha Stewart heart corner punch and another Pink by Design set from the last release called "Everyday Banners".  I finished it off with some silver heart brads that I found at Michael's!

Sarah has been so sweet to give me some blog candy for one lucky recipient!  Make sure you are a follower and leave a comment telling me what your favorite set is from the new release, and you will have a chance to win the "Our Kids" stamp set!


Wasn't that sweet of her?!

Now it's time to head on over to the Pink by Design Store and buy all of the New Releases you just can't live without ;-)

Thank for celebrating along with us today!!

Italy Scrapbook Album using the Silhouette

Happy Friday,
As promised, here is the scrapbook I made for my sister from her Italy trip last summer.  I actually did the entire album in one day!!  The paper and stickers are from a destinations page kit I purchased from Hobby lobby, and everything else is from the Silhouette!












The album cover came with my "Your Story" bundle and the binding is phenomenal.  The pages aren't going anywhere.  I surprised my sister with the book while she was home visiting this week :-) She loved it!

Thanks for stopping by today!
