Action Wobble Design Team Day

Hey everyone, happy Tuesday!!!  I am your featured designer for Action Wobbles today... WOOT WOOT!!!! 

I just LOVE hot air balloons so when I found this new die I just had to go for it, and it looks great on an Action Wobble :)  


For my project today I used the new die from La-La Land Crafts called  "Hot Air Balloon".
My sentiment is from My Favorite Things "Up Up and Away" stamp set. 

If you'd like your own Action Wobbles you can pick them up here ... Royal Shoppe, warning:  they are addictive. 

You still have time to join our Current Challenge, so pop on over and check it out.

Action Wobble DT Post

Hey everyone, I am the Action Wobble Featured Designer Today ... WOO HOO !!!!!


The images on my card were cut from my Cricut Imagine using the Greeting Cards Inside and Out cartridge, and the hamburger is a digital image from Pixie Dust Studio. 


My bottle of Ketchup is on an Action Wobble and this is what they look like underneath.  It's a small spring that makes your images wiggle :)

If you don't have any Action Wobbles of your own you can pick them up at the  
Royal Shoppe  and you won't be disappointed - they give life to all your projects :)  
 
You still have time to join our Current Challenge, but don't delay because there will be a new one starting tomorrow. 

We would love it if you would become a follower of our blog and "Like" us on Facebook and share your Wobble projects with us.

Good morning everyone, Happy Monday!! 

It's the first Monday of the month and that can only mean one thing ... It's time for our Delicious Die Cuts Challenge over at Paper Playtime...WOO HOO!!
  So fire up those die cut machines and take the challenge with us! 

Challenge #81- Hot & Spicy
 Make any type of project with any type of die cut machine and 
make it Hot & Spicy.

For my project this week I thought outside the box because I had this really pretty paper from our sponsor that I wanted to use ~

This is a very simple card cut from the Paper Dolls Dress Up Cartridge, and she's on an Action Wobble. If you're not familiar with Action Wobbles this is what they look like underneath your image and they can be bought here.



Now, let's talk about our wonderful sponsor for this challenge, it is the Robin's Nest.
My card base was cut from their paper "Spring Stripe" and the background paper is "Spring Flowers Glitter Vellum" 

They will be giving a $15.00 gift certificate to their store to the winner (make sure you look up this paper, it's really pretty)

You too can play along with us in this challenge, here are the rules: 
1) Be a FOLLOWER of Paper Playtime (you can follow me too)
2) Submit a NEW Project within our theme (no back links)
3) For this particular challenge you must have a USA shipping address

Be sure to hop on over to Paper Playtime and see what my super talented DT sisters have created for your inspiration! There's some awesome candy for the challenge winner, so get to work on your Delicious Die Cuts ~ "Hot & Spicy" project and take the  
Paper Playtime challenge!!

Where am I ???

Well some of you have been wondering where I've been so I figured I better put a post in here so you know I'm still alive and kicking, but not crafting.

Actually, I hurt my back really bad about a week and half ago and have been down and out.  No crafting for me at all because sitting has been a huge problem.  Today is the first day I've been sitting for a decent amount of time and I plan to get my butt in my craft room and try and get some stuff done.  

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers and to all the emails I've received wanting to know where I was and make sure I was ok ... my crafty friends ROCK!!!

Love you all and hopefully you'll be seeing stuff on my blog really soon :)
