July Challenge #2 - Red, White and ? (I switched it up a little, I used red, blue and sand!)
Take credit for the Red. White and Blue challenge as well.
grammadee , just delete my challenge if it's too confusing. I thought I had covered using red, white or blue in my challenge but I guess it wasn't clear when you made your challenge, so maybe change yours so it doesn't exclude blue as a choice.
Maybe next month we can each be limited to posting one challenge or something because there are quite a few from the jump and 2 people posted pet challenges so it is probably confusing to others as well.

This is one of those LO's that sat on my desk for days and I've ended up just saying right, it's done, I can move on! I started it last Friday trying to get some more points for my team..... but we won anyway (I know, I know, nobody like a big head)!!! So I'm claiming 10 for this and most of them are ketchup ones, cause I started it last month. 2 points for doing a LO and posting. Word-up for the title, Nuvos (goes without saying), I bunged an Arrow On It, it's a Grid and I've used a Flag & a Banner for grammadee's challenge. The Ketchup ones are Random Icon - zebra, April Maufacturers challenge - Crate Paper, Pop A Wheelie On It - 3 Flair badges, Construction for the flair badges and wood veneer frame. Also Hoarding for using old Maggie Holmes which is a funny story. I found a 12x12 paper pad online for £7 and dug out the old Shine collection to see if I liked it. I did, so I ordered the pad. Then realised the pad is Bloom and not Shine hahaha! Luckily I like Bloom too eh.  Definitely not my favourite LO ever but I had to just be done with it and move on to something else. |

They can't ALL be favorites, or that kinda takes away the meaning of favorite, kiwigirl! I like the asymmetrical grid and the muted purples. I think it will grow on you. |

Great sporting page, mamakven ! Love the way your colours really pick up the uniform and the playing field I count 4 points: creating(1), sharing (1), ballgame (1), and alpha numeric (1). I think there is one more as well. Off to check ETA. Yes. 1 more for Get Outdoors. So a total of FIVE points. |

This is a photo frame I decorated for a friend’s daughter for her graduation gift! This meets the following challenges: #2- Red white and...aqua -1 pt #22- Word Up- 1 pt #31- Off the Wall- 1 pt #33- Sparkle and Shine- 1 pt (I HATE glitter, but I did use glitter letters. 🙂) created a piece- 1 pt posted- 1 pt doing a challenge- 1 pt Did I do that right??? Do I get a point for posting the sketch/scraplift challenge, or does it not count since I post it every month? ETA: I think I already gave myself a point for that, but can remove it if I need to.  |

grammadee...my birthday is in March but I’ll celebrate any day! I scoured my stash for something to add to those scallops (by the way I pulled out a huge pair of decorative scissors to cut those things!!) and settled on the pearls and love them so much I decided the page didn’t need further embellishing.

mamakven love your sports page! I struggle with them so much, so thanks for the inspiration I love the colors and patterns you chose with the fun photos. I also think you can count that as a grid, so six points! KelleeM wow, gorgeous spread! I love love that you pulled out the deco scissors for that beautiful pearl border. Very pretty colors! I think your page would also count under the ketchup challenge for june’s use your handwriting  KikiPea that frame is to die for! Love all the fun embellies and the heartbeat background is fabulous!

I think there is one more as well. Off to check ETA. Yes. 1 more for Get Outdoors. So a total of FIVE points. I also see Ketchup - put a flower on it (a May challenge), and Ketchup - construction (add metal or wood) if that is a metal eyelet on the journalling tag? Great LO mamakven , I love how you've got so many photos on there and there's still loads of white space too, it's lush! Oh, another challenge, the new one to use smaller than 6x4 photos, you fit that one too so 2-3 more points! Great LO's @ kelleem and what beautiful gifts! Are they Nuvos on your scalloped border or enamel dots? They look fab! I think you also can claim a Ketchup point, a challenge last month was to hand draw a title and you have your handwriting in your title. Oh, and you've added a flower, that is a Ketchup challenge from May. So 2 more point there? OMG @ KikiPea that is an amazing frame!!! What a beautiful picture and your embellishments are amazing, I love how you've clustered them as well it looks fantastic! I am so impressed and you are adding points up like a pro! |

I managed to bash out a DT LO this afternoon and make 13 points for the team! I can't show you the LO until it goes live on the blog on August 1st so I'll post the whole LO then. I am claiming 1 for doing a LO, one (in advance) for posting the pic, Ketchup - grammadee 's 30 minute grab and go cause seriously, I whacked this one together proper quick! Ketchup - Hoarding.... I used eyelets people, EYELETS!!!! Also Ketchup - Construction for the eyelets too. The July Stash Challenge cause I used PL cards or similar, Show Your Flag because there's a banner on it, I bunged an Arrow on it, it's a Pet LO, in a Grid, my chosen Manufacturer is Doodlebug, Word-Up for the title and my pic is Smaller Than 6x4". I hope all my DT LO's come together so quickly this month! I'm working with Doodlebug Hello collection and I didn't think it was very me but if they all come together so quick, it will be very me lol! Here's a little sneak...  |

Here is my first July project: a bd card for my ds. I was inspired by several guitar cards on Pinterest, but believe me, this one looks NOTHING like any of them, LOL. I put it together one tiny step at a time. Cut the circles for the middle, and then thought, "Hey, that could be a shaker card". And the last hour has been an extended game of Where's Waldo with my supplies. But it is DONE! On pinterest, all the strings were nice and tight: mine had a mind of their own. So I decided to use that: the message on the outside says "You're not old", using the guitar hole for the O, and on the inside it says, "You just might need a little tuning". Actually the process of jumping in without all the supplies at hand, and winging design as I go is pretty much what I do with most projects. Just that this one just seemed like each step took just a little more WORK than PLAY. Prob for a number of reasons: still a little dozy from our busy weekend, I have not crafted for a few days, I had cleaned my craftroom so not as many options right on top of the counters, and I need this card for when ds comes here, so feeling a bit of time pressure.  needs tuning by Gramma Dee, on Flickr Anyway, this is a card created & shared (2 points), It has wire and brads, so Fasten-ate challenge (1). Letter stickers, so alpha numeric (1). It's a birthday card, so I will check out if cards fit in this month's challenge, or if I need to claim a Ketchup one from last month (1). Total: 5 points. |

I’ll have to review all the challenges and correct my points!! Thanks ladies. kiwigirl those are pearls on the scallops.  I finished this one earlier. I know it meets the challenge for song lyrics ( thanks for the title inspiration stinkerbelle !). I added an arrow, used mostly one manufacturer, and glitter paper. edited for point count: manufacturer, song lyrics, ketchup (Washi), sparkle and shine, generation 7 points. |

kiwigirl I think your collage layout is great. I really like the border as always. mamakven your soccer layout is really bright and fun! love how you used a nontraditional pattern for it. KelleeM what a lovely way to document your birthday. I like how you used both a pocket and traditional page. I also really love the combo of patterns on your second page and the photos are jut to sweet. KikiPea What a great gift. I love the accents you used and it is so nicely balanced. grammadee your card is so clever! love the shaker box part.
