"Monday Madness.....Imagine That Challenge" ~ Episode 367

HAPPY MONDAY & welcome to another "Monday Madness....Imagine That!"  Well, I hope you ALL enjoyed your weekend! I had the BEST weekend....my brother & sisters w/my nieces & nephew were all here to see my boy's LAST game of the season before they start playoffs! We had SUCH a GREAT time!  My family is simply the BEST & I can't wait to see them ALL again in a few weeks for Father's day weekend!:) Needless to say, it was also nice NOT to turn on my computer the ENTIRE weekend! If you emailed me, I will get back to you this week! 

Okay, now onto the challenge! Here are the details:

~ Theme is: "HAPPINESS".... 

~ Create ANY project of YOUR choice that makes YOU happy! example: coffee, your furbabies, family, holidays, vacations... etc....

~ Please use your Imagine's, if you own one, if you DON'T own an Imagine, please incorporated lotsof pattern paper onto your project!

~Deadline for this challenge is Sunday, June 17th

~ Please link your projects up to Mr. Linky below this post, then leave a comment

Now onto my project for today! I decided to make an 8x8 layout of the 3 most important people in my life who "complete me" & make me "HAPPY"! My beautiful boys & my hubby!;) This is my favorite picture of all three of them! When I was away in Jan to CHA, they went & did a "photoshoot" JUST for ME!  They totally surprised me & gave it to me when they picked me up from the airport! I do have to say that I am ONE LUCKY lady to have been blessed w/such GREAT men in my life & I do thank GOD everyday!;)

For this layout, I used SEVERAL items:

~Build a Banner Kit

~Anyday Bingo & Crossword

~My Journaling

~Inspiring Words

~Inspiring Words {Accents}

~You Had me at Chocolate

~Here's Lookin at You

~My Mind's Eye "Portobello Road/ Union Square" paper pack (I purchased this pack from My Craft Channel a while ago)

~ Burlap "Liz's Paper Loft Boutique"

~AND my New Sewing Machine from Joann's!;)

P.S. I want to thank Miss Deanne w/"The B Crafters" for her AWESOME idea to use the sentiment "Love at first sight" from my "You had me at Chocolate" along w/the glasses from "Here's lookin' at You"!:) These two are just PERFECT together!:) Thank you Miss Deanne!

Here is my video on how I put my FAVORITE 8x8 layout together!

Now see what makes my FABULOUS design team "HAPPY"!;)

Monday Madness...IMAGINE that!! ~Sketch challenge

GOOD MORNING & Happy Monday! Welcome to another "Monday Madness.....IMAGINE That!" For today's challenge, I'd thought we would switch this up a bit & just use your "Print Only" feature on your Imagines! You are welcome to use your cricuts and even your Imagines to follow this sketch below! I just wanted to see if all of you could challenge yourselves to use the Print feature only!

You have until Saturday, March 31st @ midnight to play along w/us!

For my card ABOVE, I used the "Country Carnival" Imagine cartridge to print my brown patteren paper! I basically just kept super simple by using wide PRETTY ribbon, the white flower was cut out using my "Art Philosopy" cartridge, to get the decorative edge, I used my "Gift Card Holder Die" for that, also used my Stampin Up "Scalloped Punch" and I used my "Scalloped & Stitched Circle Die set" to layer my flower onto! The sentiment is from my latest release called "Do The Cocoa Motion"! Well, I hope you enjoyed my EXTRA SIMPLE card today!;)

{Here is the sketch to follow for this challenge!}
