  • The colors mean nothing – get creative!
  • The circles can be anything – a punched image, an embellishment, anything you want!
  • The sentiment can go anywhere you’d like

Sometimes we all need a little boost to get our creative juices flowing.  That’s what the Stampin’ Gals Gone Wild Weekend Challenge is all about… a place to start and let your creativity go from there.

So, your challenge is…..over the weekend create something with this layout, share your creations on the Facebook group, and enjoy some great feedback from other Wild Girls.  Our group of ‘wild’ stampers is now at 3,500 members!  We’re having a great time on this page so join us!

Let me share a couple of fun ideas with you using the sketch for this weekend….

Nothing says summer like a swimming card!  Today starts the first day of school for Ginny and I thought this card was so appropriate.

Those little fishy just make me smile.  I truly love the Seaside Shore stamp set.  I also love that it has matching Designer Paper.

Did you notice the Seaside embossing folder in the background?  This is a GREAT embossing folder whether you want it to look like waves or just want something funky and wavy.

It was fun to replace those circles with Washi.  I really need to use it more.  It’s great stuff.  I just never remember to use it.  Check out that short and sweet supply list!

Ginny Stewart

Today is the day!  The day that all the parents in the Moore Public School district have been waiting for.  The FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!  This morning I took Ginny to the high school to start her first day as a Sophomore.  She’s actually happy to go back to school.  Not happy about waking up at 7am but happy to be back to school.  She’s a REALLY good student and enjoys the classes I hated in school – math and science.  Me?  I am and will never be a math girl.  English on the other hand… I rocked those classes.  I know she’s going to have a great year.

If you’re sending kids back to school, I think you will really enjoy this video.  If someone were home to take a picture, this would SO be me.

Not gonna lie…. it will be nice to have my nice quiet house back during the day.  I LOVE having my kids home for summer break but there is something so magical about the first day of school when you’re a mom.  Am I right?  I know one day I will miss the days of having them here for summer break but for NOW I am going to enjoy my coffee in peace.

Make it a great weekend everyone!  See you Monday for a Monday Make It Project!
