Happy last Hip Hop friends..

It's kindof a sad day for some of us, being the last day of Hip Hop....BUT knowing Angela like I do, something wonderful will be happening at Unity and I am sooo excited to find out what it is!

For my first project today I decided to try the backpack box tutorial found in the Splitcoast Stampers resource section...you can see it here! I used the Aug. KOM on here, stamped with Momento and colored with Copics. These stamps together give me a chuckle- yes I'm looking forward to the first day of school :)


I'm also feeling a little of the Halloween Spirit so I broke out my 'Hauntingly Sweet' set and made this "ode to candy corn" card :)



now hop on over to one of our fantastic Guest Designers ***Stephanie***
