I have been working on some challenges for The Shaker Box this week. Linda is having a contest for everyone that completes all 7 challenges with a chance to win a RAK...I love RAK's so I am all over this one!! The Shaker Box is fast becoming a hopping site and I just love all of the ladies over there...so much inspiration. Stop on by and check us out...there is still time for you to get on this challenge this week!!

The first card I did was a challenge to make a window card....you can see through the punched circle that I have a tree stamped on the inside. The inside greeting says "It's Spring!" I thought that it turned out kind of cute but I have to admit....this is not how I invisioned it when I first started the darn thing. But you know how it is...go with the flow...right?

The second card was a recipe challenge where we had to use 2 patterned papers, a rub on, a flower, a button and thread or ribbon. I made my flower out of patterned paper, put a rub on flower in the center with button and thread to complete. I also used my Fiskars Threading Water punch on it too....love that thing!!




Well the countdown is on....14 days till we leave! I am so excited! Had a meeting last night with the coaches and the team. Have our game plan all laid out for the week. We play Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night at 8:30 pm...then from there it all depends on how we did with those games. I am happy that the games are at night because that gives us the days to have some fun. The boys just have to remember not to have too much fun so that they aren't ready for some baseball!! No sunburns and no hot tubs!!

This weekend the baseball team is putting on a spaghetti dinner to help defray the costs of the tournament. I hope that it is successful...so if you live around here....go on over to the Gerry Rodeo grounds Sunday at noon and get yourself some spaghetti and meatballs!! All homemade meatballs and sauce...can't wait!!

Thanks for stopping by today....I am cleaning my scrap room to get ready for a cyber crop over at Coordinates Collections this weekend. I am excited because it happens to fall on a pretty quiet weekend in this house...I am gonna get my scrap on!!
