Off the Shoulder and a Pajama Party




Off the shoulder is cool right now...





so is off the cardbase.


I was inspired to let that panel float~


just like

CASE Study Challenge #155
Jennifer McGuire





I also love the hearts in the inspiration, so I used one to frame a bitty sentiment.



Card Two is for the pajama party this month~



it's a simple one for the

Waltzingmouse Pajama Party Challenge 2-Get Nauty.

Don't You KNOW????!!!



You DO know it, right????






You really do!


I mean, there is no one like you and there will never be again.


YUP.


It's true.


Whether or not you're the best YOU is up to you.



But, either way...



you.


 still.


matter.



and you would be missed.




Please believe that.








I LOVE to speckle with my Copics...but I tried something a little different here.


I took my "new to me" PTI The Sweet Life and staggered the various layers in colors represented at RIC.





I pray you be encouraged today~

THANK YOU TREE




It was such a blessing to win a Papertrey gift certificate recently~I about passed out when I saw my name drawn!



I used it to snag this new set, Mighty Oak...






oh, HAVE MERCY...the possibilities are endless with these fun leaves....

I could play all day!


As for challenges, once again, the Q has inspired me with a lovely combo of colors.

BACK TO SCHOOL




Well, it's back to school people.....









We're a homeschooling family...so it means that we have to buckle down and crack open the books and software.


It's getting all serious-like around here.


However, I couldn't resist saturating myself with yummy Sunscreen spray that smells like Manoi Oil.


I don't have time for the beach, but I can still smell like it!!!


RIGHT????!!!!

Nail Polish and Another Q




I told you I love the Q colors...













 I couldn't resist painting some nail polish on the edges~it's a fun color I leave sitting on my desk for prettiness-sake.  



It's called Lickety-Split Lime by Sally Hansen~and it dries pretty quick!



Hope your Monday is going smoothly~ ;)
