Scrapbookaholic with Abby DT day!

Good morning all my bloggy friends!! Today I am so super excited cause it is my first post as a DT member for  Scrapbookaholic By Abby!!

We will be having these challenges every two weeks and the themes are so fun!! All the details for Scrapbookaholic By Abby Challenge #1 are posted on her site! You have two weeks and you will love our sponsor this week!!! It is Cosmo Cricket  12 x 12 paper collection!!!

This week, Challenge #1 the theme is "Pick Your Own Holiday" You can visit this website from http://www.holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/march.htm or if you find another National Celebration in March you can use it also! Make sure you mention on your project post what day and what celebration it is!!!

For my project I could not decide which holiday I wanted to celebrate and decided to do two in one or like my grandpa likes to say "Two for one son of a gun" LOL!! I decided on Share a Smile Day which is on March 1st and The Day Coca-Cola was invented on March 29th!! Perfect combo if you ask me!! :)


I love, Love the colors and the patterns on this paper it  is so fun and happy!! I could not find the perfect sentiment so I created one on my computer and printed it out onto a cut I made with my cricut! 

Materials used:
  • Nifty Fifites cartridge
  • kraft cardstock
  • we are memory keepers paper
  • i rock
  • orange ribbon
  • white sakura gelly roll pen
  • computer made sentiment {by yours truley }
Thank you for visiting me today!!  Make sure you go visit Abby over at Scrapbookaholic By Abby and check out all the other DT's projects! You are sure to find tons of inspiration!!
