JUNE MONTHLY CHALLENGE: On the Road Again Challenge!
For a lot of us summertime means ROAD TRIP! For this challenge, we want you to create something . . . ANYTHING for your car! It can be a travel game, travel activity, organizer, whatever! Also, use at least 2 Cricut Cuts.




For this challenge I altered a file folder to record a road trip. There are 4 pockets: 2 with jornaling tags (I can add more tags depending on the length of the trip)and an envelope to store little momentos. I didn't glue the last pocket so I could store brochures that I find along the way. This will be easy to use because it is sturdy, easy to write on, compact and will fit in my purse. Since a pen is attached, I won't be hunting for something to write with. Cricut Cuts from Going Places, Graphically Speaking, Everyday Paper Dolls, Heritage and TBBM.

MAKE IT YOUR WAY CONTEST!
Use this month’s magazine as a stepping off point for you to create something your way. Use one of our Designers projects to help you create something similar and yet has your own style. You might see a flower, paper, design element or maybe just the concept to help you design something of your own. CONTEST RULES: Use at least 3 Cricut Cuts and an idea from the magazine

I liked how Michele Kovak on p.23 used flowers on her picture. I used tulips and iris on pictures of my gransons during their Easter Egg Hunt. Cartridges used: Picturesque for the tulips, Walk in My Garden for the Iris, 3 Birds for the Rabbit, and Easter 2010 for the title-Happy Easter and Cross.

Weekly Challenge #33: Sweet Summertime Challenge!
The Challenge: What makes summertime “sweet” to you? Ice cream treats? Watermelon? Popsicles? Whatever it is we want you to include the shape of your favorite summertime sweet treat on your project.Include 2 Cricut image cuts.

Mom's birthday is July 6 and we always have a family dinner at her favorite restaurant. Since it is her bd, she is given a sundae with a candle. She shares with everyone at the table and the restaurant supplies enough spoons for all us to have a taste of that ice cream treat on a hot July day. Cricut cuts are from Sweet Treets: sundae and the present. Before she blows out the candle, we tell her to "Make a Wish" which is the stamp I used.
