Rock my World and Back to School


This is my second post for today - For my H{ippity} Hop post please scroll down.

Since I was up early in the morning this weekend I was able to play a bit more than normal. So I played with a few sketches and challenges.  Stamptacular's challenge this week was something for the boys - for some reason I always think rock music when I think of boys.  Don't ask me why - I know rock music isn't only for boys - heck I like rock music! But anyway - I dug out this way cool jukebox from an old Unity KOM cause I thought it looked boy-ish.  I colored it up using my prisma colored pencils and smooch (to give it that old time plastic light look) stickled bubbles around it for more color and heat embossed the sentiment with Zing glitter EB powder.  It all makes for a very sparkly card - so maybe it is more Disco than Rock  - lol!   I laid it out using the sketch from CPS added the brads at the bottom and done! This is also for OCC's Embossing challenge. Fun, fun, fun to do!

I also played along with All things Unity back to school challenge, and CAS-tastic's Case a DT Member (which was Deb - find here gorgeous creation here.)  This one was quick and easy using a schoolhouse from Unity and numbers from "Life's Little Moments" by {ippity}. 
Thanks for stopping by!

{Hippity} Hop - A Good Book

Hello my fellow {hippity} hoppers! I hope everyone had a good weekend and are prepared for the upcoming week!

Today I have a very simple card I did for two challenges Simplicity's  One Layer Wednesday and Bling it up for CAS-tastic Challenges.

I so love the look of simple when I see what everyone else does - but I find it so hard to do myself.  I always feel that since I am making the card that every cool thing I have ever learned/done has to be presented on one card.  It almost seems like cheating to stamp simply and leave it - know what I mean!?!? I used Smooch on the butterfly from Book's a Flutter to give him a little shimmer, a little blingy thing behind him and that is the sum total of what I did to this card.  Lots of fun - easy and fast! 

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to go visit all of my other fellow hoppers - for a full list go here.
