I was obsessed with the cartoon when I was a kid. I used to pretend to be Penny, and my Pound Puppy would be a stand-in for Brain. I had this big book of Disney stories that I carried around and would pretend like it was my little computer. I adored the cartoon until my childhood crush broke my little heart when I was 6 by pointing out how stupid the show was. It was really more that if he didn’t like it, I couldn’t either or he would think I was a nerd. :roll_eyes:

Oh, hey there.

All you craftalong-ers check out the Peek Behind The Curtains Challenge! You don’t need to make something new to join in, you just have to (finally) share the things you’ve made already! WHAT!?

Thank you for the reminder to share things outside of the Nerd Games! Remember everyone, this is a great way to not only get an additional 20 bonus points for projects, but it’s a great way for others in the Lettuce Craft community to see your amazing makes! Not everyone checks out the craftalong boards.

I got my sweet scissors pin!

Thanks, @LovelyMiss! Guess I’d better start figuring out what I’m going to do with the pin collection I’m apparently starting :laughing:.

Yet another month has gotten away from me, but I have craft time planned for this weekend. Although, as I was typing that first sentence, I realized what I could make for the Battle before the weekend. Must dive into my stash!

(It won’t let me post just that sentence, it says “body is unclear, is that a full sentence?” Yes, LC, it is.)

New prompts have been posted, sorry about the lateness and lazy prompts (I’m leaving a lot of it up to your imagination this month), I have a lot going on and can’t really devote my brain power to it right now… Hopefully I’ll be back to form next month!

I was too scattered and frantic in my life to do the Spring version, but I think I have gotten myself together enough to enjoy the Summer Games. I am excited to jump back into this. I am planning on doing a craft show for charity this Fall and the Games will be great incentive to get stuff done and keep me on track. :green_heart: :purple_heart: :green_heart: :purple_heart: :heart_eyes_cat:
