Wanna see something fun???

That is a little peek of the VERY yummy June mini kit at Paper Popsicles!!! I just LOVED this kit!!! It is PACKED with goodies and at $12.50 you can't go wrong! The June kit folder is going to be opened tomorrow so make sure you stop on by and take a look at the pics in the gallery!

I had a fun and very long weekend! I went shopping TWICE at my fav LSS Hannah's and got some FUN new toys to play with! I had a fun and LATE scrapping night with my buddy Alicia on Saturday-let's just say I went to bed and heard birds chirping! LOL!!! Sunday after work I headed up North and spent the next two days up at my parent's condo! Relaxation-look at that sunset!


Here is a LO I did for a game we are playing over at Paper Popsicles. We are playing telephone with a LO! I can't wait to see all the LO's revealed!


I did get some of the challenges for Dixie Pieces on my late night scrapping adventure! Here are a couple of those. I can't believe May is almost over!! How crazy is that???!!



Well on a final note today I would like to congratulate my friend Sheila and her husband John on the birth of their first baby! Their son Timothy John was born this afternoon around 1:30!!! I'm SOOOO excited and happy for them and can't wait to see baby pics! Happy Birthday baby Timmy!!

TFL!

Have you checked these out yet??!!!

Melissa has added even MORE adorable images in the store at Paper Popsicles! They are just too cute!! Here are a couple cards I have made using the images. These are SOOO much fun to play with! PLUS there is SOOO much more you can do with them than paper crafting! There's a great How To on the Paper Popsicles Message Board on how to decorate a onesie with the images, you can even do pillows, blankets, bags, t-shirts, altered items! The list is endless! So go over to www.paperpopsicles.com RIGHT NOW!



Have you seen these?

They are SOOO AWESOME! It is a metallic ink that comes in this cool little bottle and the applicator tip is fine and strong enough that you could write with it like a pen! I have a cute little project posted on Paper Popsicles right now about how I used this ink and their digital design and created a cute little embellie! Go on over and check it out on the Message Board under Digital Designs. Here's a little peek.


And last but certainly not least a little eye candy for you. I used the Basic Grey Lime Rickey line to do this LO for the sketch of the month at Paper Popsicles. Such a fun line to play with!


I will be shopping at my favorite spot Hannah's tomorrow and then getting together for an afternoon/night a scrapping with the girlies! Should be LOTS of fun! I will hopefully have some fun stuff to share with you on Tuesday!

Have a GREAT L O N G weekend and be safe!
