I chose June 18th...National Sushi Day!

This is making me DROOL!!!

Congrats on becoming the host for this wonderfully fun challenge. All I can say for June is….I hope I never ever see Day 29 in real life!

This was fun! I used a mix of vintage-theme papers and mulberry paper, a teeny bit of black paint (because my brush was dirty when I dipped it into my glue), puffy stickers, and thread.

I love peanut M&Ms so I had to use it for inspiration

Fantastic picks - love the photo one!

This was a fun sketch!

My handwriting and silver marker stink so I went with the shortest phrase

A pin cushion. Lol.

2 photos
4 patterned papers (tiny grid, big grid (mat), wood, and the blue sky with stars on the fake tag) or 4-word title in 4 lines
6 blue flat-backed jewels
8 translucent white enamel dots

I goofed - I really wanted to use the title What Dreams May Come but While You Were Sleeping works ok with sleepy SamSam

When I chose this LO to inspire me (and ended up just lifting), it was on page 85:

My layout:

LOVE this. I bought a bag of flat rocks to experiment with mandala painting on rocks (I stink at it) and have 11 naked rocks that I’ve been staring at and wondering what to do. 

I don’t always post my layouts for this challenge series but I do play along and add my LOs to my 8x8 album dedicated to me. I like this theme a lot… and I might even post this time

OMG, this whole time I was reading SERENITY squares and had no idea what y’all were talking about. Serendipity makes so much more sense - so they’re like master boards?

I think I was too intimidated (or clueless) to play last year but I’m all in this time around…or at least as much as I can do. Just saw the first sketch and I love it!

This sounds like fun though I’m thinking I might have much time to create in July (big conference coming up to prep for) BUT as long as it’s not 50 projects in 30 days, I think I can play and not drag “my team” down! 

I keep buying dies and this should give me incentive to use them! Can't wait to see what the challenges are and what everyone creates!

I used mostly ink for the whole card and stamped the ladybugs.

Ohhhh! I LOVE this new twist on the Grab 5 challenge. I am on a mission this summer to use all my unopened supplies (I find stamp and die sets from 4 years ago!!! How did that happen?!) I also am trying to use up stash for 20 years ago (remember when AC Moore first opened and they sold pre-cut die c...
