I know I will be ever so grateful for this challenge in November, but right now it just seems waaaay too hot to be thinking about Christmas cards. 
The Free 4 All challenge on SCS was a CAS-tastic Summer card. I like the dimension that the Scor-Pal gives the card, a little change from my normal Cuttlebug backgrounds! I haven't used the Happy Harmony set in a long time, so I pulled it out for Forgotten Stamp Friday. 
Think this has enough layers?!! Lee challenged the Flybabies to make a card with at least 8 layers on it. I did it!!! *grin* All of the papers were from my scrap box, so I'm not sure what company the dp is from. The Totally Gorjuss challenge was to use punches or dies. 
The only thing we would be using an umbrella for around here is to block the sun. We need rain badly. Today was another 112* day!!!! But, it was fun to color this image. It's for the sketch challenge over on the Paper & Such blog.
I'm still finding things that qualify for Jessie's Forgotten Stamp Friday challenge. This is another set that hasn't seen ink in over 6 months. I CASE'd THIS card for the Queen for the Day challenge on SCS. 
This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge is an Inspiration challenge. It was all about purple. 
When I saw this sketch & the twist I knew I wanted to play along. I haven't done a good job at working on my Christmas cards, I'm so going to regret that in a few months. Maybe this challenge will be the kick in the tushie that I needed!
Lee challenged the Flybabies last week to make a card using gingham. I paired it up with this cute little mouse!
The Free For All Challenge on Stamp tv is to make a 10 min card!!! I only colored with 2 different copics, no shading, nothin' extra! There wasn't time to add bling either!!
You've gotta check out the inspiration challenge over at Paper & Such. 
Normally, a CASE challenge is an easy one... except this time I have half of the cards from the DT in my favorites on SCS!!!! I had a hard time choosing which card to CASE. I decided to do a CAS version of Stacy's card To see the other cards, be sure to check out the Copy Cat Challenge over at Flourishes.
This is for yesterday's noon time challenge on the Flourishes blog. It was a sketch. 
This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge is to add embossing to your project, wet or dry. Since I almost always emboss my whole panel, I decided to do something a little different & emboss just a strip of cardstock.
The sketch is from Stamp tv's Mix it Up Monday & the Inspiration Challenge on SCS, using this as my inspiration piece.
I bought this set & had all kinds of plans for it & then it fell behind my shelving unit. I found it recently & realized that I hadn't used it at all!!! 
This week's CCEE challenge is a yummy one... chocolate!!! We went to my parents over the weekend of the 4th & had some homemade ice cream... choc, choc chip, pecan!!! YUM-O!!!! 
I was going through my scrap pile & found this piece of polka dot dp. I took it & ran with it. I really need to do this more often to use up some of the scrap pieces. 
This is for the Featured Stamper on SCS. I chose this CARD to CASE. (I still do not have any white daisies in my yard! ) 
With a title like Oopsy Daisy, I couldn't resist using a daiy for the Inspiration Challenge on SCS. I chose THIS picture as my inspiration. 
The Ways to Use it challenge on SCS was a something old, something new challenge. My something new was the stamp, something old was the dp.
