We're JUGS #90 - to LIFT-OFF!


"Mission control ~ Mission control...! Mission control - do you read?"

*********************

"HOUSTON! We have a problem!"





Too much CAFFEINE on-board... and TOO MUCH FUN with paper craft!

"Tower - what is our best option?" "Do you copy?"
"I repeat - how do we solve THIS problem...........?"

Hey, I know! GET your paper 'n stuff, and PLAY ALONG WITH Just Us Girls!



This is your chance to officially greet summer -
Paper CRAFTY style! It doesn't matter WHERE
you are from! Just make something 3D and
celebratory of your country - and WE are
guaranteed to SWOON! {You WILL, too!}



As you can see, I got a little carried away.... *ahem!* As USUAL!
Reminiscent of this project, I grabbed a little of ANYTHING that
looked like it would play with me, to make this rocket ship! Starting
with Spellbinders™ Pennant Dies as templates, once again - I made
materials, who don't ordinarily talk to each other, become FRIENDS!
Tracing and folding, inking and gluing and FUN, FUN, FUN!



But speaking of FUN! CHECK out what my lovely, Just Us Girly - Girls did
with THIS assignment! You should have enough ideas for gifts, cards, seasonal
decor and just DOWN RIGHT fun stuff to create! Take a gander for yourself!
