Music Is Life Blog Hop

Welcome to the Music is Life Blog Hop



We sang our ABC's as children loud and off key!
We rocked out in our bedrooms with our friends to our favorite tunes.
We slow danced awkwardly to that memorable ballet with the boy we crushed on. We walked down the isle in to the wedding march as we married the man of our dreams. We sang a sweet lullaby to our babies as we rocked them to sleep. We sing our favorite songs as we drive the kids to school, annoying them the whole way! Yes, music is Life! It's everywhere in our lives! 
Join us as we celebrate the wonderful Life of Music!!

You should have arrived from Charmagne. In case you didn't and you need to start at the beginning,
Connie Can Crop is our Drum Major in this Music is Life Blog Hop.
This is a one day blog hop and I appreciate your leaving a comment for all of these fantastic ladies who are here sharing their Musical themed ideas and creations. 

I have a fantastic sponsor for this hop, Scrap & Craft
They have generously donated a fun fall themed kit full of cardstock, embellies, and a stamp set.



Please visit Scrap & Craft HERE

What do you need to do to win? Easy... become  a follower of each of the fabulous blogs in this hop and leave each of them a comment letting them know what you like best about their projects.


You will have until 12:00 am Monday to finish the hop and leave your comments.

Our instruments have all been tuned...time for the show to begin!



For my project I am showing you a tumbler I made for our music teacher. Every year, our traveling chorus team competes in Disney. So I thought this music note was more than appropriate for her! And then of course, our school name on the opposite side =) 

 Up next is PAM! 

Here is our complete line up in case you get lost along the way:

For my project today, I am showing you what I've done with my boys school binders and notebooks/folders. Each of the boys had to label their stuff, so mom came to the rescue!

Logan wanted baseball and fishing or sharks....I found this great silhouette in the SIL store so used that for one, and the hungry sharks for the other. 


Jayce had to label his stuff but I couldn't just use a marker! haha! He's in 6th grade, middle school this year so I had to make it non-kid like he informed me :/ 


All of my vinyl I purchase online from Expressionsvinyl. I love their vinyl, their service is fantastic, and its just all around great!

Connie Can Crop DT ~ Paper Nest Doll

Today I am sharing with you a card I made using a digi image from Paper Nest Dolls. 




I'll be honest, I never used a digi stamp before...But now? I love them! I opened the stamp up in my silhouette program, traced it and made cut lines so the machine would cut it out. Of course, my mat is loosing its sticky-ness so about 3/4 of the way and it comes off the mat! I ended up hand cutting the rest. I'll list all of my supplies below...I used lots of goodies on this one! 

~ Supplies Used ~ 
Paper Nest Doll Fairy Tale Collection ~ Fairest of them all
Jaded Blossom Fall Dies (for the apple and sign)
Jaded Blossom Card Mat Dies (polka dot mat)
Jaded Blossom School Rules (for sentiment)
Close to my Heart Markers 
Le Plume Markers
3 Girl Jam Jute Ribbon
Pop Dots (on apple and girl)


Thanks for stopping by!

I made this cute picture frame for open house at my kids school next week. I am the PTSA President for our elementary school and thought this would be cute to get kids and parents excited about a new school year! We will be doing photo ops at our table =) 

I bought a photo mat from michaels and painted it blue (school colors are blue and gray, we are the dolphins!). All my images are from the Sil Store (except the words, I picked some fonts I love and went with it!).
