Spring Vacation

Easter vacation to the grandparent's house or to the beach....those were our two options growing up.  I'm not sure how I will use this card.  I have some friends moving this early Spring into their new house.  We also have friends that we are going to visit over Easter break.  Either way, I think this card says "SPRING".

Catch the Bug is having a BINGO challenge.  I chose the diagonal: Spring, Player's Choice, and Die Cut....Spring flowers, my die stitched border, die cut grass, road, hills, flowers, and image.  The image is from Bugaboo called AKV - Moving. ( I printed and cut several of these "smiles" a few weeks back. Glad I found other ways to use them.)

Fried Chicken

I laugh every time I see this image and the sentiment.  The image is "Fried Chicken" from Bugaboo Stamps. And yes, this little chick has fried her little and old a** in the sun from a young age.  I've been much better these past few years with the scare of skin cancer.  I still love the sun on my face.  I just make sure I grease up for protection.

I'm infatuated with perfecting my shaker cards....better and easier!  I placed real sand and some bling bobbles in the shaker.  I used my new Lawn Fawn "Life is Good" Stamp and Die set.

The challenge at Catch the Bug is "End of Summer"...use teal, bling and die(s).  Well, I'm headed to the beach this week for a last summer hurrah, used glitter and bling bobbles, and every shape in this card came from a die or cut from my Silhouette.
