ABC Challenge - Shopping Our Stash!

Good Morning, Crafty Peeples!

This week at Shopping Our Stash, we are challenged to create a project using ABC!  Please let us know what your ABC elements are (ex.: Apple, Boat, Chair).   I needed to send a welcome gift to my Grandson's new teacher, so I took this challenge as an opportunity to do so.  I think my design is close enough to the spirit of the challenge that they won't kick me off the team!

My ABC's are:  Apple, Basket and Bookmarks, Clips and Composition Books.

4th Grade Fun Basket

One benefit of private school is small class sizes.  
My grandson's class has 8 students.  

Great for the students and the teacher!  
Good for me! I could almost get everything into this small basket.

 I decided to leave the composition books uncovered and simply applied cute stickers!  A few months ago, I almost dumped the big letter post it notes..glad I didn't.  Making covers for them only took a few seconds.  The composition books I have had for two years.  

This challenge helped me deplete some of the kid stuff in my stash.  In addition to the items in the basket, I am sending the school's Art Department a shopping bag full of stickers and paper.

Here is how it was boxed and presented to Ms. Michelle

Lots of tags and journal cards for her along with a big paper clip!

Can't wait to see your spin on our ABC Challenge.

OUTLAWZ - 2000 MEMBER PARTY

IMAGE BY SASSY DESIGNS

Hello, Cardies, just a quick post!  Well, the party is on over at the Outlawz!  We are celebrating 2000 members!!!  We have fabulous prizes, engaging games, wonderful sponsors, and pages and pages of outstanding design from our DTs and from our members!

The Outlawz is a fabulous, growing community of "designing men and women."   If you are not already a member, I invite you to join us!  We have eight challenge groups, one for each day of the week, and our special "Creative Freebies Challenge" that gives you  two opportunities each month to receive up to four  truly fantastic free digital images.

You will find our membership to be warm and encouraging and our DTs are about the most supportive folks in the world!

My card was supposed to be "Americana" but I totally missed seeing that theme, so no Red, White, and Blue here, but, what is more American than "DRESSIN' UP AND LOOKIN' CUTE!"  I really wish the details in her gown had photgraphed better.  This was my first time "painting" with  Perfect Pearls and it really turned out nice.  The gown has a nice sheen with lots of little sparkles.  So pretty!  I love trying new stuff!

I hope to see you at the party!  Thanks for stopping by!

Big Gigantic Hugz,
