I was asked to be a designer for Craft Project Central again this month. My project will post on August 7. I’ll be posting all the Craft Project Central projects just for the month of August.

Add some sunshine to someone’s life with a little lemony treat!

Abby and Keegan finished their Physics class at the community college last night. Time to get Abby ready for college. I’m thrilled for her and know she’ll do great, but I get teary eyed every time I think about it. Sunday, August 13 is the day Abby moves to college. I told Keegan he has to go with us to be the muscle getting Abby’s things up the stairs and also to drive me home, because I may not be able to see the road through my tears. Superman will be with us that day, but then has business in Davenport so he won’t be able to drive me home himself. (I actually do almost all the driving normally, but I have no doubt driving home that day will be too hard for me.) Keegan’s biggest concern is all the extra time that Steve and I will have to micromanage him, since he’ll be the only kid for the first time ever. He’s been trying to bribe Abby to stay home with him this year and they could go off to college together next year. 🙂

Pal’s Blog Hop

Welcome to the July 2017 Pals Blog Hop. Thank you so much for joining us today. This month we’re having a Pattern Party! Hoppers will feature projects using their favorite Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper and coordinating embellishments. After all, color coordination is a Stampin’ Up! Strength.

Whether you’re just starting the hop, or have come from a previous Pal’s blog, you’ll find the line-up toward the end of my post to help you move along.

The Designer Series Paper (DSP) in the new catalog is so gorgeous, I had trouble picking a favorite. I finally landed on Naturally Eclectic DSP.

Isn’t it pretty?!

Since I am showing you my favorite DSP, I thought I would also show you my all time favorite box. I was surprised to see my directions to make the Snickers Box have been pinned 10,000 times! That is way more than my other pins. 🙂 Here’s the link to the directions. You can put a full size Snickers or Milky Way bar or four mini bars in each box.

I used the Night of Navy and Emerald Envy markers to make the two tone tag.

This 5/8″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon comes in Berry Burst, Emerald Envy, Night of Navy and Peekaboo Peach. I recently offered a share of paper, ribbon and embellishments so people could get a little sampling of everything. I was really excited knowing I would be keeping 1/8 of a roll of each of the 50 new ribbons in the annual catalog. Accidentally, I oversold the ribbon and ended up with no ribbon for myself. I was actually bummed, so to console myself I bought the Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon in all four colors!

Please take a minute to mark your calendar for our next hop on August 9, 2017 when our projects will feature “cuts” from punches, dies, framelits, edgelits, or thinlits. Now hop along using the Blog Hop Line-up below. Thank you so much for hopping with the Stampin’ Pretty Pals today. See you on August 9^th!

The last couple weeks have been a whirlwind of activity! We just got home from Kansas City after attending my niece’s graduation party. She’s a very sweet girl and her party was a lot of fun! I’m also very happy that the six dozen cake balls I made for her party were a hit! My Dad is funny. He said, “Why would you mash up a perfectly good cake?” Well Dad, when you mix the crumbled cake with frosting and dip it in Almond Bark people seem to like it. 🙂 I’m having trouble keeping my boys out of the cake balls we’ve made for Abby’s party. I don’t think I’ve told you, but ALL my kids are home! Ryan is home from college doing an internship in West Des Moines for the summer. Sean flew home from Seattle on Thursday evening and will be here until May 31. Keegan and Abby are here because they are still in high school. My Mommy heart is happy having our family of six all under one roof again. 🙂

Last night, our dear friend’s oldest daughter, Lauren, got married. She was a gorgeous bride and had an elegant black and white wedding. Lauren likes simple yet elegant, so I tried to make her a card that fits her style. I also was honored to make the card box for her wedding.

I cut the “Lauren” and “Andrew” from the wedding invitation and mounted it on Basic Black cardstock. The flowers are made with the Succulent Framelits Dies retiring May 31, 2017 and currently 50% off at only $16.50!

The flowers had Wink of Stella on them and were gorgeous in real life! Best of all, Lauren was very happy with the card box I made for her.

Here’s the table with the card box and name cards that we set up before the reception.

I hope if you don’t already own the Botanical Builders Framelits and Succulent Framelits Dies you’ll consider getting them now at half price, only $16.50 each until May 31 or while supplies last. These framelits work best with the Precision Base plate.

Please order from my online store and use the Host Code KCQSVZKT to get your free card kit by mail. You can also email me at Beth@StampingMom.com 🙂
