Get Well Beary Soon - The Stamping Boutique

So who is up for an Anything Goes Challenge?  The Stamping Boutique has one here this week:  http://thestampingboutiquechallengeblog.blogspot.com/, it doesn't get any easier than that right?  I decided to make a get well card, mainly because I had this really cute sentiment that was perfect for this digi.  I popped the bandaids, but it is hard to tell on the picture.  Such a sweet sweet bear.  I'll be entering the following challenges:

Beach Bum - Fabulous Friday Freebie - Sassy Studio Designs

It's time again for Sassy Studio Designs Fabulous Friday Freebie!  This Sassy is called Beach Bum, but, I cut her out of the towel she was laying on.  I thought without the towel she looked like she could be modeling, dancing, or partying at the beach, and I just love the look.  Check out the challenge which is to follow an inspirational photo - for some reason Mr. Blogger won't let me put the picture here!

Check out Sassy Studio Designs on Paper Craft Planet to get this week's freebie.  Here is the Link:  http://www.papercraftplanet.com/group/sassystudiodesigns. Who knows, you could win more sassy digis!  I'll be entering the following challenges:

Stella - Bugaboo

What's one more friggin candle!  LOL!  That's what the inside says - just right for lots of celebrations! I thought I would change it up from the design teams I'm working with and do one just for fun, and Stella oozes fun doesn't she?  I'm trying to focus on guy cards a little to build up my stash.  I'll be partying at the following challenges:

The Stamping Boutique is sponsoring a challenge over at our Crafting Community: The Crafter's Cafe, they are hosting a Kid's Challenge.  If you email Stacie she will give you this Star, but you have to use it in the red white and blue challenge like the Design Team did!  Who doesn't like a freebie.  The challenge is paper piecing, which is so hard for me, I actually avoid paper piecing challenges, but this star was soooo easy. Expand your child's horizons and teach them to paper piece.  There is a tutorial on the above link to get them started.  Let's see what your child comes up with and link it to The Crafter's Cafe for a chance to win! The Challenge at The Stamping Boutique this week is paper piecing as well, I can't wait to see what you create.  I'll be celebrating at the following challenges:

July 21st Sassy Studio Design Blog Hop - It's a Small World

Finally, Release Day, I bet you couldn't wait to get your hands on these new digis!  I got to play with USA Honey, and really enjoyed blinging her out right down to the belly button star and sand in her bucket.  I've been playing around with sparklie eyelashes, and they are sooo cute.  I decided I wanted her swimsuit wet so I used crystal lacquer.   Hey, I also picked up a new tip from the design team for blush on the cheeks.  I always fought with my copics, well forget that, all you have to do is use chalk.  Way to easy and way to cool.  If you mess up, just wipe it off. GENIOUS!  Make sure as you hop along to leave some love, two random commenters each have a chance to win one of the new images being released. 

This blog hop also comes with a challenge. The theme is "It's a Small World After All". You have a week to create a card showcasing something about your favorite country using a Sassy digi.  The winner will get ALL 6 July 21st released images.  How cool is that!  Chek out the SSD Blog for the details to enter.  Below is the hop list to help you out along the way!

Jade - The Stamping Boutique

The Inside:

The Stamping Boutique is sponsoring a challenge this week called "texting terminology"  This was another one that had me using the old bean to think up something with those short little words.  For the record "I Hate" texting.  I have a thing about shortening words, and typing on such a tiny little screen.  I guess I'm "old school", picking up the telephone goes much faster for me!  LOL!  However, I am picking up on the lingo!  Stop over at The Stamping Boutique and check out the other great creations the design team came up with.  TTYL!  I'll be entering the following challenges:
