a not so fun 4th of July

This is how we spent last year’s 4th of July!  I can’t believe how tiny Bianca was in that photo (she looked big for 18 months, but still).  

A few challenges:

Pile It On! – at least 3 embellishments

Unscripted Sketches 13

A Peek into Yesterday – Monthly Digi Challenge

Lil’ sunshine

I had the good luck to find the Tinkerbell cartridge for the Cricut on clearance for a really great price and ended up making this LO for a couple challenges and for Harmonie Loisirs Creatifs (a Canadian Company, Happy Belated Canada day).

The Sun and the yellow phrase are cuts from the Tinkerbell cartridge.  The Sun is cut out using Harmonie Loisirs Creatifs papers, and cover w/ some of their buttons.  The swirly journaling stamp is also from Harmonie.

Challenges:

• Button it up!  @ Pile It On!
