Creative Accents First evah Blog Hop and a Challenge!!

Ok! My bloggy crafty friends! It's time for my favorite little LSS FIRST EVAH BLOG HOP!!! Who hoo! Creative Accents has a new challenge for the month of July and we're starting it off with a blog hop! How fun is that?! There's even some prizes for followers and comments. So be sure to hop along with us, leave some love for the design team and then join in on the challenge with us! You should have landed here from my buddy Tanya's blog if not, hop on back to the beginning at Creative Accents and join in the fun.  I cant wait to see what you all create with the inspiration from this FABULOUS photo....
 
OK, cool huh? so the "rules" are.....to create any card, scrapbook layout or paper based project inspired by this image (could be colors, layout, music...)

Your project should include

- at least 3 colours

- a die cut or punched item

- primarily products available in our store (esp. as the focal point)

My interpretation of this photo is......
Now, I know I didn't HAVE to make iPods or follow the photo so literally! LOL BUT when I saw the photo, this is exactly what I saw! So...I went about building it. :o) I've used Bazzil Bling paper for almost everything, except the polka dots and lime green paper, that's an American Crafts paper (one side is the polka dots, the other the lime green!) The stamp I used on the red ipod is from Tim Holtz. And of course, the card is one of my fav things...an easle card!!

YAY!! I was quite happy with it and it really only took me.... one whole night!!! LOL Honest!
OK!! So Im sure you're anxious to get on with your hop.
So your next stop shall be at one of my best buddies blogs Christine  Hop on over and leave her some love!

Your project entries can be made at creativeaccents.blogspot.com until noon on July 31. A random winner will be selected and announced August 3.

Happy Hoping and Cheers!!
