Good Morning my Creative Friends! Today's post I just wanted to share w/you what my girls & I made for my bi-monthly scrapbook class I host!  We ALWAYS have a BLAST when we all get together! I've had the same girls coming to my classes for the last 3years now & I totally appreciate them! For this month's theme was a "Summer" theme & I decided to use the brand new cricut lite cart "Block Party! I actually REALLY REALLY LIKE this cart!! Peachy Keen has a set of stamps called "Retro Paper Doll Face Asst"
which goes PERFECTLY w/the CUTE people on this cart!! We made a little cute Hamburger treat topper , an Apron Shaped card & (2) 12x12 layouts!! These projects were SUPER SIMPLE this month & I hope you enjoy them! 
For my Hamburger, I used My Pink Stamper's "Simply Sweet Occasions" Sentiment "Yummy"!
