Second....we are kicking off our next challenge at Guylou's Inimitability!
And the theme came from our most beloved Tracy...
Punches, Dies and Diamonds Oh My!
So your project must include the use of a punch, a die and some diamonds!
Here is mine:
I used Serena and her laptop...
the frame was one I had in my closet gathering dust!
I used thick chipboard and painted it with chalk board paint.
The punch was a Martha Stewart border punch...you can see at the top and bottom
and the die was a banner die that is across the top with the name "TORI" on the banners.
Of course you can see the strip of diamonds going down the sides!
I made this for a friends daughter who just had her first communion!
The challenge will last until the 17th of May!
Make sure you go to the challenge blog and check it all out!
And last but certainly not least
we have a new DT!
Her name is Carla and we are so thrilled to have her join our little family!
Welcome Carla!
Let's see I think that is about it!
hop, check
challenge, check
Carla, check
Now I think I got it all!
Happy hopping!

Hey, I am the "crazy" part, not so sure about the "beautiful", though! LOL. Anyway, I love this chalkboard. What a cool gift idea! Do you think the chalkboard paint works well? I might have to get some!
Thanks for the warm welcome, Kim! I'm so happy to be part of the team! Your project is fabulous! Very cute and creative!
What an awesome gift! I know the young lady who receives it will love it!
AWESOME frame!
Gorgeous project!! Love those two images and they are nicely coloured in too! Am enjoying the hop and meetings G's team.

Great idea to decorate a chalk board - nice to create things that can be used! I'm inspired to give it a go too!

Hey gf...I think you need to kick my butt more often to come and visit you (or I guess maybe I can get one of my kids to do it...I'm sure they would probably volunteer! lol). So glad that I decided to check out G's blog hop...this creation is well worth checking out. What an incredibly inspirational creation (say that 5 times fast)! I love the way you coloured Serena..she's so vibrant she just pops off the frame. And that banner is a great idea...I'm sure that your friend's dd just loved it. And of course...just gotta love the bling!!
Hugs and stuff ~ Char
