New Magnetic Travel Bingo Set

I used the magnet sheets and the new Bingo Stamps to create this cute and simple travel kit for kids.  I am anticipating to use this as my "gift" for all the kids in my family this year.  I really hope they enjoy and appreciate the work that was put into it!

Color Challenge Thursday #2

Well, things have finally settled down a bit here.  I started a weekly Color Challenge on my blog a couple month's ago.  Life got in the way and I had to put the challenges on hold.  So, here is this week's Creative Apple Scampers Color Challenge # 2.  I will be offering Blog Candy.  To be eligible for the Blog Candy, you must comment on the post AND upload a sample using the challenge colors!  The Blog Candy will range from handmade card to embellishments, to stamp sets.  Have fun creating and share the samples with me!  I hope you enjoy!
