Today we went to the waterparks. We were there for about six hours and by the time I came home I was too tired to do anything. This is my favorite picture from today. Tomorrow we are going to Sesame Place.
This month I decided to participate in the Counterfeit Kit Challenge. That blog is so good because it helps use supplies we already have. These are the pictures of the kit I made. Embellishments and papers. I had fun shopping through my stash to put my kit together. Hopefully I will get some pages done with the kit. I have wanted to join in for the last couple of months and I am happy that I finally did.
A special thank you to Crystal for the Hello Kitty Cricut cartridge that I won on her blog on NSD. I love it and I intend to use it soon for cards and scrapbook pages. Every year my family gets together around Halloween for a Harvest Party. We have a hay ride, pinata, scavenger hunt, fire with marshmallows, and... a donut eating contest. Donuts are tied to a string and then are hanged from a clothesline at different levels. Without hands you have to eat your donut, which is easier said than done since if you don't bite at the right place it will fall on the ground :) I couldn't tell you who ate their whole donut, but I can assure you it is fun. I used my counterfeit main kit for the papers, thickers and journal block. I used a MS punch to cut the bat border. The orange swirl paper has been in my stash forever. I didn't use any embellishments because I couldn't find anything that looked good and I think it looks good without any.

If you stumbled onto my blog and would like to start at the beginning or you are looking for the complete list of blogs you can find it here . Our challenge was to get inspiration from our favorite scrapbook company and their blog. I have quite a few favorite companies, but for the challenge I chose Jillibean Soup . They have so many fun layouts on their blog and I found this layout by Julie Bonner and thought it was great. For my layout I switched the hearts for shamrocks. I had this adorable picture of my grandson from St. Paddy's Day and I was happy to find a cute layout idea. I used my Cricut to cut the shamrocks with the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge. I used a touch of adhesive on the top of each shamrock to hold it in place while I was sewing but none near the center because I didn't want the needle to be sticky. I followed the lines of the ledger paper to keep the sewing straight. The layout went ...
