Just Dance

Happy day to you!  It seems like forever since I have posted.  What a week already.  Anyone have any ideas about how to keep a teenager awake in school?  The 6 AM wake up call for DD is reeking havoc.  We are trying an early bedtime, but not sure a teenager going to bed before 9 PM is going to happen.  School starts at 7:15 AM so she is dragging in there.  I am not a morning person myself so I feel her pain.  Any suggestions on how to get her awake besides caffeine are appreciated.  I think if I sent her in jacked up on Red Bull her teacher might be upset. 

My card today features a digital image from Tiddly Inks.   I never took Ballet.  I was always a tap or gymnastics girl.   I don't have the grace of a dancer.  Onto my card because I am sure you do not want to read about my lack of coordination.  This started as my Crafty Creations card and quickly developed into several challenges.  I love mixing like this because it creates a card I probably would not have thought of.  :-)
Melissa is hosting the challenge this week and she came up with a Music/Dance theme.  Love it Melissa!  She introduced me to Tiddly Inks and I ♥ Cristy Croll's designs.  They are so adorable!

Amy - such a cute cute card! I love this little image too! I have no idea how to get a teenager out of bed - if you figure it out you should profit from it! LOL GREAT card!

This is an adorable card! Well I was able to get my teen girls up on time, the only problem was that they learned to sleep in the shower...lol That's what happens when you have an endless water heater. Can't believe I actually busted one of them snoring in the shower...It's a funny memory now, wasn't then. Good luck!

Hugs, Marjo

Great card - simply beautiful! It's so hard I struggle getting my middle child up for school..some kids just need their sleep. Wish my 3 year old did! But if you come up with a plan I am sure you could patent it! Cheers Claire x

such a darling card!! Let me know if you figure out the tired teenager problem. We are suffering from that syndrome, too and can't seem to get it figured out.

Keep It Sweet and Simple
