Now I have no clue why I did another page for my Middle E's 3rd Birthday. I already completed an entire scrapbook for that birthday (Click Here and scroll to the end of this post if you would like to see it)! I started with a sketch for the PKS challenge but I strayed from it! Oh well! You can never have to many scrapbook pages..hehe!
I used the Hopscotch Imagine cart and Life's A Beach for most of the LO. I did pull a few pieces from my scrap pile. For some reason, I have double the amount of blue scraps than any other color so I felt the need to use some of them for the water!
I printed this cute little guy out using Hopscotch but I didn't think he popped enough. I decided to heat emboss him with Red Craft Ink and Clear Embossing Powder. I wish you could see it better in the pic but I love the way he turned out! I stamped a My Pink Stamper Stamp on a label because I thought it was a cute addition!
The title is all printed and cut using the Hopscotch Cart and the banner is from a leftover scrap piece from the LO. I'm still trying to use my scraps up for Sonia's challenge at Scraps 4 Fun! I've been putting a pretty good dent in the pile. Sometime this week I will tally up how many projects I've done so far with them!
Now doesn't this palm tree make you want to pack your bags and head for the Beach! After spending a few days this past week at the Great Wolf Lodge and Indoor Waterpark, it makes me want to head for the beach!! I am ready for the warmer weather! I actually had my Imagine and Expression both going at the same time for this tree! The palms and sand are printed using patterns from the Imagine More Cards cart and the trunk was cut from scraps using the E! I also gave my dear sewing machine some attention for this LO!

PS...Can you see my gadgets? If I view a single post they are there but when I view my whole blog they are gone. I haven't changed anything and it shows up fine when I go to my Design Page. Where did they go? Maybe it is a glitch with Blogger tonight. I'll play with it later! Thanks! ***FIXED IT AND I REDESIGNED MY BLOG WHILE I WAS AT IT! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP TO EVERYONE WHO RESPONDED!!!***
