Calendar Swap - finished 2 more months

There is still a calendar swap going on over at Visual Designs by Chris. I have finished 3 months which means I will get 3 complete calendars when the swap is over. We still have 3 months that have not been spoken for if anyone wants to sign up head over to the forum. If we get more interest there will be another group started.

For my November layout I used the turkey from the "Fall Treat Boxes" set from My Scrap Chick.

For April I used the Easter Egg Waterfall Card (without the card part) from SVGCuts, PeachyKeenStamps face stamps and a Sizzix "Swirls" embossing folder and Cuttlebug "Polka Dots" embossing folder. The "APRIL" was made using one of the cuts from Lettering Delights "Easter" set. 

McVic is 36 Blog Hop

Hi and welcome to the McVic is 36 Birthday Blog Hop! Please sit down stay a while, and enjoy the cards or crafty projects we have made. Also make sure you comment on each blog,

Kacee is going to give away some birthday blog candy to a follower who comments on all the blogs, and lives in the United States.

There may be other candy along the way.

If you just happened upon my blog today, and would like to play along. Please start over at Kacee's Blog. I wouldn't want you to miss out on any candy!

If you just came from Kacee's Blog then you are in the right spot.

We all made a birthday inspired project for this great hop and my grand daughter's preschool teacher had a birthday on Monday so this is what I made her.

The cut for this card came from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.

I used my Chomas Creations gel pens in my Cricut to make part of the banner and added a little skittle.

I also made some magnets that spell her name. I covered some wood circles with some bright colored paper and punched out a magnet circle to stick to the back. The letters are Paper Studio Alphabet Felt stickers.

I am giving away a My Pink Stamper "Punny-licious" stamp set to 1 lucky person that leaves a comment on this post. I will draw a winner on Monday so that gives everyone through the weekend to comment.

Now head on over to Yolie's blog and see what crafty project she has made!

I think our Hobby Lobby got a kick in the pants!!

I have not been to HL for a while because there is nothing new. Well I decided to go in on Saturday for some distress ink because ink pads were on sale last week. To my huge surprise they had sooooooo many coooool new things. Now we have Tim Holtz dies, Sizzix dies, new Spellbinders dies, Prima clear stamps, Changeables. We even have a Big Shot and a Vagabond and the little Texture Boutique but before we only had Cuttlebug and Epic.

Now I need to do a little research on the movers and shapers. (I think that was the name) lol

Holy cow I was in Heaven and what makes it even better is that this week they have a 40% off coupon. My daughter and I went yesterday and my grand daughter and I went today. Just take a look at all this awesome stuff.

I think our Hobby Lobby is starting to think they may be getting some competition in town now and they are gearing up for the new JoAnn's store. Our JoAnn's is moving into our mall (right across the highway from Hobby Lobby) and they will be taking up 3 store fronts and actually having classes. The old store was way too small and didn't have much but the new one is going to be huge. Not a super store but close enough for me. I so can not wait until October 7th and I am not a very patient person and I am counting down the days.

We have no classes in this town and I even tried to sign up with 2 different CTMH dealers at different times this last year but neither on of them ever contacted me. Did I mention I am so excited about the classes. lol

Are You Ready To Rock

Erika at Crafty Sprouts is having another challenge.

"Are you ready to Rock"

I used "Rock Princess" to make this card and added some pearls, ribbon and Stickles. The sentiment is from Pink by Designs "Rock On" stamp set.

I also won a gift certificate to Market Street Stamps on Erika's blog and this is what I ordered.

Thank you so much Erika. These are awesome stamps!!

Calendar Swap

I am in a calendar swap over at Visual Designs by Chris. I signed up for 2 months. (August and November) This means that I will make 26 (1 layout and 1 calendar) 6x6 pages for the month of August and 26 for November and send them in to the coordinator. I will then get 2 completed calendars back.

I think we still have 4 months that have not been spoken for so if you want to join in head over HERE and sign up.

The school house and bus cut files are from Scrappy Dew and they are so so cute. The "Back 2 School" and "August" I created myself in SCAL.
