Lindsay's Stamp Stuff & MyGrafico Monday!

I'm double dutying it this Monday with two DTs! One Project for 2 Design Teams?? Whaaaa?

Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is the MyG Designer of the week for the MYG DT and I am also on Lindsay's Team...so...below is my project for this week!I'm not into sewing so I wasn't sure if I would use this set much...BUT...check it out! "You're a real cut-up!" LOL - that cracked me up and HAD to use it!

I also used some adhesive ribbon and 'freestyled or freehanded' it's placement!

For more ideas please stop by the MyG Challenge Blog

I'm now on the SketchMania Design Team!!!

I'm now a part of the SketchMania Design Team over at UmWowStudio! I'm so excited!!! Here's the first sketch and my first project for the team...

I have to say I LOVE DeeDee's sketches! They are truly unique and very well done! Below is my take on the sketch this week. It's a Inspirational Wall Hanging. A great way to re0use those cardboard backings to 12X12 paper packs as well as reusing metal and/or plastic pants hangers!

Be a part of this challenge and let's see your take on this week's sketch!

I'm also entering this project into the following challenges this week:
I Did It Creations - Punches & Dies (cuts)
Scrapbook Sisters - Framed
Try It On Tuesday - Inspired By A Song (My Wish by Rascal Flatts - lyrics below)

My Wish lyrics
Songwriters: Steele, Jeffrey; Robson, Steve;

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you're faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you

And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin' ?til you find the window
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
But more than anything, more than anything

My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold

And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish

I hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you and the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get

( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/r/rascal-flatts-lyrics/my-wish-lyrics.html )
Oh, you'd find God's grace in every mistake
And always give more than you take
But more than anything, yeah more than anything

My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold

And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish, yeah yeah

My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold

And while you're out there gettin' where you're gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
(My wish for you)

This is my wish
(My wish for you)
I hope you know somebody loves you
(My wish for you)
May all your dreams stay big
(My wish for you)
