Hear the Music layout

Had to have some more fun with my new Teen Scene paper dolls!  This music layout from an orchestra concert featured the boy with the guitar, only I changed out the guitar for a violin from Quarter Note (after trimming off the flourishes from the violin).  The words are all from Quarter Note.  I'm not sure where I got the paper-it was in my stash.  I'm always on the lookout for interesting music paper when I go to a scrapbook store, knowing there will be many musical events each year.  I covered up parts of the program that had names with some notebook paper for the blog photos, if you are puzzled as to why there are big white pieces of notebook paper on the program.

I'm going to link this to the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog (which I just recently discovered) theme this week:  "anything goes".  Love that theme :)

King of the Grill card

This card is for my sons to give to my husband on Father's Day.  My husband is definitely the King of the Grill and often fires up the smoker or grill to do some BBQ!  When you have a whole shelf in the fridge for the collection of BBQ sauces and marinades, you know it's serious!  (Of course here in KC we take our BBQ very seriously anyway, as pretty much any random person off the street can tell you where to find some fabulous ribs and burnt ends.)  I've been waiting for the right occasion to cut the bird with the grill from 3 Birds on Parade and here it was!   I'm hoping we can celebrate Father's Day with something delicious (maybe that he doesn't have to cook :)

You're so fly card

This card is from one of my favorite cartridges, Paisley.  If it's not in your stash, it should be!  The sentiment is from Buggy Punnies, one of the My Pink Stamper sets.  I've had the dragonfly in my head to go with this stamp ever since I got the set (maybe now it will get out of my head and leave me alone!) and finally got around to making this!

Chirp Up! card

The SOUS challenge this last  week was April Showers, which I interpreted as a card to cheer someone up (this one is going in the stash).  I took the cute little bird with the umbrella from Create a Critter and used the "chirp up" sentiment (which I've been dying to use on something because it's just so darn cute!).

You're the bee's knees! card

My Mom's new embossing folder inspired this card!  I cut the bee's from Kate's ABCs and put them over this flower and vine background and used a sentiment from the My Pink Stamper Buggy Punnies set on the outside.   This will be for a teacher thank you card, since I know next month's end of school will just sneak up on me!  It doesn't seem possible that there are only 5 more weeks of school!  I'm going to link this to the BBTB2 challenge this week to use a bumblebee or ladybug on a project.
