AUGUST is ALMOST here! & EEK!! School starts on the first and a few of you needed to see the challenges early so I'm posting early!!

THE WORD "GOOD" IN TITLE OR SUBTITLE

Here are the RULES to this challenge. 
* Please list the items when you post your project & it really helps if you tell me what/where they are (ex. puffy sticker is the red star in the right corner)  IF I CAN'T SEE IT...I CAN'T COUNT IT.
* Please don't combine an item with another item on the list...for instance don't use frame from Fancy Pants and try to count it for 2 things. Either count it for frame or Fancy Pants. So NO DOUBLE DIPPING!
* LIMIT of 5 entries 
* Photos are required on layouts
* You may combine with one monthly challenge   
* 2 page layout counts as 1 entry

My favorite challenge, but this month I have questions -
would a white pen count as white ink?
would a glass of wine count as a food embellishment?
would you consider stencil butter and/or solar paste as texture paste?

 

This is a great list to choose from!
