Welcome to the "For Those Left Behind" Blog Hop!  LOL  You should have arrived here from Laura's blog.  Crop Chocolate is a wonderful multiple deal a day site that I frequent daily.  This week they are hosting a Spring Fling at their headquarters in Utah.  A bunch of lucky ladies are there participating in fun activities with each other and the awesome staff at CC.  But unfortunately there are some of us that were left behind and unable to fly to Utah and scrap and craft with our buddies.  So we are hosting our own fun!  


The "For Those Left Behind" Blog Hop and Challenge.

Each stop will post a "challenge" for you to complete.  The challenges are created by the blog's author.  You may combine your entry into no more than 3 challenges.  Just make sure you link it to the correct blogs for each challenge.  Make sure you follow the directions on each stop.  Some stops will have blog candy as well as some blog candy from Crop Chocolate.  Here is the hop order in case you need it.

 MY CHALLENGE:
Since we are in the middle of summer and most of us have plans for some sort of vacation, make a layout with the theme of "Are We There Yet?"  You don't have to use that as your title, but it should be something about travelling to your destination.  


These are a few pictures my hubby took when we were on our way to Seattle for an Alaskan Cruise in 2006.  The background paper is from Echo Park's mini collection called Enjoy the Ride and the smaller pieces of paper are from EP's Little Boy and Summer Days - all purchased at a great price at Crop Chocolate.  I printed and cut the title using my Cameo and a cut file from EP.  Hmmm.... Some might say I like Echo Park a little!


Please make sure you use at least 50% supplies from Crop Chocolate.  Your challenge submission is due before 9 am MST on Thursday July 5th.  Winners will be announced on Monday July 9th.

MY BLOG CANDY

I am giving away this Travel themed page kit from American Crafts!  In order to be eligible to win, please become a follower of my blog and submit a layout for the challenge. 
 Easy Peasy


Your next stop is Rachel at Kitchen Table Scraps .

    Not sure if this counts or not, but I created a lay-out of a trip we made recently to visit my DH's great aunt in San Mateo. I don't have any pictures of the travel itself....so I did the end point.

    This was a real challenge for me! Luckily, I had a picture of my girls enjoying their first road trip in my husband's new and bigger truck. I'm all linked up and now I'm a follower, too. Thanks for the challenge! :)

    Great Layout and this was a great challenge!! We have taken only one trip with the kids and it turned out to be a 25 hour car trip that should have taken 10 so I was happy to get it done rather than sitting for the next 10 years!! I am now following (whoo hooo you have a lot of followers :)!!) My challenge is here
    http://craftylove4mytwins.wordpress.com/ and yours is the 4th one down.

    This one was definitely a challenge for me, as I don't usually take pictures of the actual travel time. Thanks!!! My entry for your challenge is the fifth project in the post I linked. I am also now a follower.

    Great challenge, I wish I could have done this one, but I just couldn't find anything to use. Oh well, it's still a great challenge.

    Thanks for the challenge. I hope it "meets" the theme. I haven't printed out my Disney Cruise pics yet, so I had to work with some other pics. My friend and I went to a scrapbook weekend and we had to walk to get to the beach!
