Summer vacation has started and even before it did, I came across this awesome idea. I had it bouncing around in my head but was unsure how to do it and do it good. Than I came across Some What Simples Boredom Jar and bam that was it.

The idea is simple by creating a jar filled with all sorts of boredom busters. Things range from to chores but that is how life is. The great thing is that Some What Simple already has the printables for the jar so you don't have to think it all up yourself. Some of the things my kids to already while others are new and hopefully exciting.

I just took a plain mason jar and filled it with all boredom busters and than decorated the outside by creating the fun top and side tag. So simple and yet I hope effective.

As I was checking my email, I had two new card challenges pop up in my inbox. One was from

Clean and Simple 

This week ColourQ is using the following awesome colors for their challenge:

Yes I know it is Thursday (I am behind this week)!. What a simple and cute sketch from TSON  this week. I created a simple card using the some new DSP as well as a stamp from the Show and Tell set which I have big plans for in my paper creations!

This week on Create with Connie and Mary is a color challenge. The colors they choose are:

I love this Hot Air Balloon stamp set which I don't use often enough. the CAS today from Clean and Simple seemed right plus with it graduation season, I thought this would make a fun one to give.
