Needs met

Just a few pics I snapped today of creative needs being filled around here. Looking forward to more where that came from.

art camp

I took some pictures today at artcamp. These are just some of the projects we have done this week. Tomorrow is the last day and we are going to have an art show. It has been a fun week and the kids have been awesome.

Daring Card Makers Mid Week Challenge

This card is for the daring card makers mid-week theme. They have lots of weddings coming up, so they did a love theme dare. I used scrap paper torn on a chipboard heart shape, added ribbon, and bling and a tag. Next I mounted it on pop dots on top of inked paper and a ribbon attached with brads. Thanks for looking.

angel game

We went to the Angel game today with the All Stars. The Angels lost, but we had a lot of fun. The girls even got on the jumbotron, so that made the day. Go Angels!

art camp and daring card makers

It's a busy morning, we are on our way to art camp, but I wanted to share the sandcastles the kids made for practice for camp. Our theme is beach so these are sandcastles made out of sand and cornstarch to help them stay together forever. We also added glass and shells and flags. We will be making them tomorrow in camp. Let me know if you want the recepie. The third picture is for the daring card makers dare this week, to make a card using a tag or packaging of some sort. Mine has a tag from one of my favorite sweatshirts. It was a cool tag, so I just cut it off and added it to my card and embelished. Easy fun. Thanks for looking.

banner

Like my new banner? I figured it out on my own. I thought it was a lot harder than it was. I still feel like I can work on it some more, but just getting it up there is progress. I just needed some uninterupted time and I got some of that tonight. Donna is having a contest on her blog if you want to give her an idea of something cheap and fun to do with the kids this summer. Check it out here. You can win some scrapbooking stash.
