Hi everyone... I have a little confession to make...
My name is Lolly... and I like monster trucks!!!
(whew... it feels so good to get that out in the open!!!)
This past weekend RonChops surprised me with really awesome tickets to the Monster Jam at Cowboys Stadium!!! While RonChops isn't into monster trucks, he loves me dearly and takes good care of me and takes me to see them. (I loves me some RonChops (and I loves me some monster trucks too))!
I want to share my monster truck adventure with you girls... but I don't want to bore you to tears... so we are gonna mix things up a tad!
LET"S GET READY TO RUUMMMMBLE...
(oh wait... wrong sport!)
Firstly... we'll start out with a few monster trucks!!!
(these pics are from the "party in the pits"... not arm pits... truck pits... stick with me you guys... we'll get to crafts... I promise!!!)
This here's Blue Thunder...
I tried to talk the driver into changing the name to Teal Thunder...
...and failed miserably...
I think this means I'll need to sponsor my own Monster Truck someday so I'll have say in these things!
Here we have The Monster Mutt truck...
I'll have a download and print freebie pattern available here soon so you can make your own truck ears from felt!
However, the Monster Mutt tail pattern + how to is gonna require a video... it's MUCH more complicated!
hehehe... just kidding you guys!
(or am I???)
There are girl Monster Truck drivers too!
(that's a PINK Monster Truck you guys!!!!!)
YAY for Madusa!
(she totally rocked the freestyle driving)
ohhhh... The Grave Digger!
See the pretty graphics!
It's almost crafty... right???
...speaking of crafts!!!!
This here is my Monster Truck Floral Basket!
I call it "The Tealinator!!!"
RAWR!
This is my next Live with Prima class on March 10th!
(more on that later)
Now back to Monster Trucks...
There goes Monster Mutt with a giant jump! ...his ears are a flappin'!
...and here we have The Tealinator...
Tearing up this basket like there's NO tomorrow!
..and there goes another giant Monster Truck leap!!!
(wooooo hoooooo!!!)
...and here we have some mean green cards...
(these fellas are for a different Live with Prima class on March 24th)
You can read the scoop on that class HERE!
(this class will be totally unlike anything I have ever done before... trust Lolly on this one)
...and another monster truck leap!!!
...aaaaannnndddd more cards!
woooooaaaahhhh!
LEAP!
...and some cards...
SPLAT!
If you look behind Madusa you can see a little teeny tiny mini Monster Truck...
They had these mounted with cameras so they could check for problems under the trucks...
Plus they were there for fun too!
These little mini's were so cute!
...and so darn cuddly!
...kinda like these cards that were made by the lovely Daniela...
(part of our Big Ten cards class for Live with Prima and The Little Blue House- check out the details HERE)!!!
So that's all the torment I'll put you through with my monster truck adventures...
(if you made it this far down you deserve a little prize)
So on to the MONSTER giveaway!
I am giving away one set of six Blending Buddies (you pick the colors)!
These here are the original colors...
...and these fellas here are the new colors!!!
(never before seen by the human eyes)
I bet a monster truck could leap over them without a care in the world!
...PLUS...
I am also gonna toss some Prima goodies in the box! Think flowers, flowers and more flowers!
(with a side of... you guessed it... flowers)!

P.S. The winner of my last mega box-o-crafts giveaway sent me this picture of a little bookmark that her daughter made using some of the goodies she won!!! Sooo cute!

I neverly didn't believe it was your blog at first : with all those scary monster truck pics ! Anyway your cards and basket are way too pretty to be truck inspired or related. No here for the giveaway, just to let you know how surprised I was by the trucks.
