If you like to crochet & want to make this here is what I used:
We were thrilled with all the fantastic entries for our August challenge and can’t wait to see your creativity for this month. As always, our challenge is open to any theme park-inspired creation.
This month’s inspiration photo features Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival. With September bringing the promise of cooler weather, a relaxing stroll with a cool drink sounds perfect. Let your imagination run wild and show us your magical creations!
My color palette is directly inspired by this month’s photo of Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival’s brochure. My theme comes from the cat’s of Disneyland & balloons (you can find these at every theme park). Originally I was going to place the milk bottle with the cat, but the balloon just looked better.

Although I rarely have all the same supplies as his makers, they are a great source of inspiration. This card was inspired by Kath Stewart. If you haven’t checked out her blog, it’s worth the hop over there: Kath’s Blog.

Hey everyone, welcome back to another exciting month at the Colorful Options Challenge! 🎨🌈 This time, we’re getting our inspiration from the vibrant mix of yellow and green. Pick any combo of these two colors that speaks to you. Not feeling it? No worries—join us with a rainbow-inspired palette instead. Whether you’re painting, crafting, or designing, the possibilities are endless!
This month, I decided to keep it clean and simple (CAS) and played around with the color of the month. I used Distress Oxides in Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, and Twisted Citron, along with Tim Holtz’s Splatters Layering stencil for the background. My focal image is Mocch by Lavinia Stamps, and the sentiment is from Sizzix’s Good Vibes #2.

Hey everyone! Welcome back to another exciting challenge at Park Hopping My Happy Place!
We were thrilled with all the fantastic entries for our July challenge and can’t wait to see your creativity for this month. As always, our challenge is open to any theme park-inspired creation.
This month’s inspo pic is all about The Wizarding World of Harry Potter! With August giving off those back-to-school vibes, Harry Potter feels like the perfect theme. Let your imagination run wild and share your magical creations with us!
Park Hopping is taking a trip to Universal Studios in Orlando to visit Harry Potter! I made it to the theme park, but what really inspired me was the ET ride, especially ET’s friends from his home planet.
I grabbed some Strathmore Acrylic Paint paper and whatever acrylic paints we had lying around in the stash to create this piece. It’s 5″x9″, so I don’t think I’ll use it for a card. Maybe I’ll use it to decorate my craft room instead!
