Studio Calico Bluegrass Farms Home Layout

     So when I saw the Etch-A-Sketch challenge over at the Child's Play blog my first thought was that I was out for this round.  The only thing I could ever draw was a house.  My mom dropped off a picture of her house a few days later for our son's album since he asks every day to visit Grandma, and I was ready to go! I ended up doing the layout for me though as the more I looked at it I kept thinking that no matter how old I get or where I go....my parents will always feel like home.
     I think it took longer to get a half decent photo of my layout than it did to complete it!  The papers, stickers, and titles are from the April 2014 Studio Calico scrapbook kit Bluegrass farms.  The little orange bag that is holding my journalling is from the Fancy Pants Be Different collection.  The flair is by Janna Werner, and the washi is from my stash. I combined more products than I realized!
     I also loved the May 15th sketch at Sketch~N~Scrap, and used that for the my design. They have such great inspiration month after month!

Celebrate Card

     The Crafting With Dragonflies blog is celebrating their first birthday, and having a celebrate card challenge.
     I chose to make this card with this Close To My Heart sentiment because it's cute, but also generic enough that I could use it for many different occasion rather than just one.  
   I started with a Doodlebug Designs card base and inked the edges in a slightly lighter green.  Added some co-ordinating wash tape, and the cut out with stamped sentiment.  The green gem is from Queen & Co. Easy and quick, but very cute too.
   I also want to enter this card in the Sister Act Card Challenge: Anything goes.  Make sure to check them out often as they have really cool card challenges.
Until next time....Keep on creating!

April 2014 Studio Calico Kit

     I hope I didn't come off as to much of a debbie downer, but for the price of these kits I'm rather disappointed...any suggestions?
