Summer Challenge- Imaginisce

It's Summer challenge time!

My goodness don't the months fly by so quickly, it's hard to keep up these days with so much going on around us. However, we're not complaining because it's Summer and boy has it been a long awaited Season! We've got a very scrummy challenge for you this month with a fun twist, although be warned, the photo is sure to make you hungry and the song will most likely get stuck in your head! So we would like to apologize in advance, but just remember, the prize is SO worth it!

Summer Holiday

We're all going on a summer holiday
no more working for a week or two.
Fun and laughter on our summer holiday,
no more worries for me or you,
for a week or two.

We're going where the sun shines brightly
we're going where the sea is blue.
we've all seen it on the movies,
now let's see if it's true.

Everybody has a summer holiday
doin' things they always wanted to
So we're going on a summer holiday,
to make our dreams come true
for me and you.
for me and you.

I came across this monthly challenge from Imaginisce and thought I would give it a try.  I really love, love their paperlines and this one happens to be one of my favorites. 

This paper is from the Splash Dance line and goes perfect with the lyrics of the song, Summer Holiday.  I'm heading to Boston in a couple weeks and I was told we'll be going to Cape Cod  so I know I'll have some pictures to fill  this layout, I'm sure I'll have to make a few more.

            The recipe for this layout:

                             Imaginisce-  patterned paper and stamps

              Coordinations-  solid cardstock

               Stampin Up-  chocolate chip ink

      Create a Critter cart- crabs

Life's a Beach- letters

                                         The google eyes, fish & flower brads are from my stash.

                    EK Success Bubbles Border Punch
Viva Decor paint pen

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Shaped Card

I started out making this card  for 2 different challenges, one was to make a shaped card and the other was to use the Life's a Beach cart. Well.... I'm having one of those days and I think I have a case of CRS (can't remember s***)   I don't know who belongs to the Life's a Beach challenge, so if you can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated  LOL!
I do know that the shaped card challenge belongs to My Craft Spot, in fact, I  got the idea of the window card card from there.  I love her blog you should really check it out.
This card was really a challenge but I love how it turned out.
Recipe for card:  Life's a Beach cart
                          Stampin Up scalloped punch
                          black gel pen
                          Darice Bamboo cord
                          white sewing thread
                          the sentiment is computer generated and printed on cardstock.
