Challenge Me Monday - #119 Yummy Yummy

Happy Monday!!  I know, I know....why am I so happy it is Monday!?!?  2 reasons....1. I am sitting here relaxing with my hubby & yorkie enjoying the quiet...as I am soooo excited to be having vistors arriving tomorrow that will be staying with me for a week....my sister, her husband, my nephew & my niece.  I am sooo excited!!  They have not been back since my wedding almost 5 years...so I am ready to show them around my town, since my sister has been gone for almost 12 years....that makes it my town now.  :)  2. It's Monday!!!  So it is time for another Challenge Me Monday at Fantabulous Cricut!! :)



 #119 - Yummy Yummy!! - Make a project with any type of summer dessert (ice cream, popsicle, fruit, ect.)

The project that I submitted for the project is a birthday card that I made for my hubby who is going to be celebrating his birthday on Saturday.  With the heat wave that the country was having, we had gone to dinner and then he suggested that we stop for ice cream to beat the heat the other night...so when we got home that I night, I sat down & made his birthday card.  I am sure he will love it while we are eating his birthday ice cream cake. :)  Thanks for stopping by & taking a peek!!

Challenge Me Monday - #118 Kaboom! Firework Celebration

Close up of the firwork and the 'July 4th' overalapping.  The paper that I used for the firework is a silver glittery, which looks like white in the picture.



Hope you all had a great weeekend!  I spent my weekend spending some much needed time with girlfriends on Friday night & then my husband and I met one of my best friends and her husband for dinner...so I didn't get much time to do any craft projects this weekend.  With it being Monday...you know what that means though.....it is time for another Challenge Me Monday at Fantabulous Cricut!! :)



 #118 - Kaboom! Firework Celebration - Make a project with a firework, sparkler or other big "boom".

The project that I submitted for the project is a page that I made for the 4th of July as my husband & I are both off of work and going to spend the day together...I have a list of pages to do on my 'To Do List' and thought that this would be perfect to make.  I will only have to attach a photo along with some twine around the photo, journal and put in our scrapbook for the year. :) Thanks for stopping by & taking a peek!!
