July 2024

If you’re reading this because you think you might be a crafter, my advice is: hide your credit card now.

We could start at any point, but things really start going swimmingly this month as our crafting adventure takes a field trip to PortAdventura in Spain.

Our names are Makira and Eden. Are we a crafty group? Yeah. You could say that.

Makira led the park choice this month. She searched through countless websites, looking for the perfect summer getaway. A gathering at a waterpark, where we can float along a lazy river.

I have a surprise for you, we are collaborating with another challenge.

The Double Trouble Challenge.

Two weeks of collaboration — starting as soon as you hop to their blog.

Hey, demigods! Just toss some embossing or stenciling into your Park Hopping project, and boom! You might just snag a random draw prize at Double Trouble. Easy as nailing a monster with Riptide!

Confession time: I ditched the water park theme as one of our DT projects. Yeah, I know, I know. It is normal, I swear. Whenever we’re not inspired by the current theme park choice, we get to pick a different one. So, water slides and wave pools? Not today. Maybe next time, Poseidon.

A word about our design team, before you see their makes. Their names are Eden and Makira, and they have a love of theme parks. The best break they ever got was vacationing at US theme parks. We love them. We’d been going there since Eden was a baby. Makira had been going even longer.

If their creations win you over, we humbly ask you to head over to their profiles and shower them with the awesome dewdrops of your kind comments. Trust me, it’ll make their day – maybe even more than discovering you’re a demigod!

Makira, like the sea, hates being restrained. This month, she drew her inspiration from the vibrant colors of the park’s photo.
Eden, clearly inspired by this month’s mood board, couldn’t resist using this adorable red panda for her seascape. It’s like she’s created a scene where the gods of cuteness and creativity collided!

In a way, it’s nice to know there are challenges out there. For instance, you’re reading this month’s post, which has just changed, most people would think that’s just really bad luck; when you’re a crafter, you understand that it is just a creative exercise. Any guesses on who might be the latest mimic author? Share your thoughts below!

Whenever you are ready, we are here. Here to welcome your participation.

Take care. Keep your eyes open! Makira

  3. Hmmm. Could your author mimic perhaps be Percy Jackson? Ummm, I mean Rick Riordan!

    Thanks also for once again for inspiring the masses with your wonderful cards. And, as always, for your generous spirits!
