I love the end of the school year :) I actually only have a few days off here and there between some summer jobs and other responsibilities I have, but these are wonderful days filled more sleep (I'm so much happier when I get more) and wouldn't you know it, I get all ambitious with my free time!
First of all, I finally got my classes posted for this Summer's A*MUSE*A*PALOOZA! I'm so excited to be at Paper Tales in San Diego this year!. It's a crazy fun time and I hope to be able and see some of you! Be sure to check out my class schedule here.
Second, I had a little time today to make a card and I decided to tackle TWO challenges in it (gasp!). The challenges are Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger:mapping color and Splitcoaststampers Clean and Simple challenge #71: Things that fly. Here are the results:
I loved the patterns in the pillow inspiration for the Moxie Fab challenge:
I thought the pattern would be fun to replicate in a sun. I know someone who could use a lil sunshine - so this should do the job :)
These are both fun challenges, and anyone can play along! Hope you all are enjoying the extra sunshine we are getting every day!
Card Recipe:
