Happy Bitten by the Bug Monday! This week the design team challenge at Bitten by the Bug is sponsored by the Cutting Cafe, who is also sponsoring a blog hop giveaway!!! We were each challenged to use a different printable stamp provided by the Cutting Cafe to complete our project, along with a frame from the Storybook cartridge. As you can see, I used the flip flop printable stamp. And what fun I had with this awesome printable flip flop!!
I printed the flip onto white card stock and this pretty aqua print paper. I then sewed the layers together to create the stitched shoe feel and added the frame as the tag of the shoe. I also sewed on the flip flop strap, then blinged out my little shoe with ribbon, flowers and gems.
So did I mention the Bitten by the Bug team is hosting a BLOG HOP and BLOG CANDY at each designer's blog?? I thought I might have said something about that! The Blog Candy is being provided by the Cutting Cafe, so be sure to leave comment below to be registered to receive this awesome flip flop printable stamp.
You next stop on the blog hop will take you to Dianne's Blog, Just Mousin' Around. DeeDee always has awesome projects so I know you are excited to be on your way!!!

I spent the weekend with some of my scrapping BFF's at my friends Beth's and Sally's lake house. We had wickedly horrid weather on Saturday, but somehow that did not impact the fun or the creative Karma flowing through the lake house. And today we had a great lunch out on the dock as it was sunny and upper sixties!
I did not have my most industrious weekend ever... In fact, it is safe to say that this was my least productive trip ever. It was, however, relaxing and fun.
I managed to create my weekly Bitten by the Bug project... it will be posted tomorrow... along with 10 cards and a few layouts. I thought I would tease you tonight with a few card sneak peeks.
Thank you Beth & Sally - the weekend was great.
Happy Saturday everyone! You know how I love Saturday: PJ's as long as I want, coffee and breakfast with my hubby (M-F our schedules are off by an hour), a movie or two with my guys, and lots of scrapping!
Today I had this big plan - bake Christmas cookies all day! Well instead THAT became tomorrow's big plan!!! That's right, I did not bake one cookie today. Yikes.
Recently, as I have broadened my stamping fun, I have purchased several sets of printable stamps. Two of my favorites are from THE CUTTING CAFE (http://reginascutterdesigns.blogspot.com/). I used the Cafe's printable stamps and made some awesome package tags. I decided that it was silly to purchase package tags when I have a zillion scraps and the printable stamps. The tags turned out so cute! But where are the photos you ask? My faithful camera let me down. Well, technically, the batteries let me down. It died while photographing the following cards.
Regina thought it might be nice to take a time out from all of the holiday hoopla so this weeks challenge was to use the BIRTHDAY GIRL cut from the Cricut Storybook cartridge. I used one of my Stamping Bella stamps along with the Birthday Girl cut to create a Happy 21st Birthday card. The other projects for the week can be viewed at http://regina-bittenbythebug.blogspot.com/ You can check out the variety of Bella stamps (because Bella has A LOT going on) at http://www.stampingbella.com/index.php
