Brrr...its cold?

Yah, I know....it's summer Kerri get with the season. Unfortunately mother bature has forgotten that summer vacation started. Sunce all this cool weather has been happening in PA it kinda of got me in the mood for to work on some stuff for my fall craft fairs. I was also inspired by our new feature at Practical Scrappers(10 things you can do with...), and last week we did loose glitter. A little scraplift came in to play from my SAS sister Cassie who did these cute little penguin tags for Christmas...check them out here.

Make it PINK!!

October marks the beginning of Breast Cancer Awareness and the importance of it is very dear to me (having a scare myself). It struck even closer though this past year to my husband and I when I co-worker of his was diagnosed at 33 years old. Just goes to show you age doesn't matter. Today also kicks off our first ever card contest at Practical Scrappers. It's been a huge turn out and I'm so excited to see how our contenders do with our challenges over the next six weeks. But this first round the theme is PINK and the perfect color for a breast cancer awareness card...
