Hello everyone and happy Thursday!!!!  Laurel Beard here today bringing you our JULY Mix it Up Challenge!! I LOVE these challenges and am always excited to see what the month brings and this month, we are mixing it up with... Drumroll...Neat & Tangled!!!

Before I get on to the challenge and the amazing project inspiration,  let's first congratulate the randomly selected participant from our last Pin-Sights Challenge. Remember, YOU could win a $50 gift certificate to the Ellen Hutson store just by playing along.  

And our randomly selected participant (courtesy of random.org) is: Lorelle Chin!!! Congratulations! Please email me at laurelbeard at me dot com to claim your prize!

A friendly recap:  The Mix it Up Challenge is a challenge where we invite one manufacturer to contribute a design that combines Essentials by Ellen stamps/dies with their product to inspire our readers!

I am so excited to share a project by the talented Danielle Walls with you all.   She is using both Essential By Ellen products and Neat and Tangled products! The supplies she used in her projects today are linked towards the end of this post! Let's check out what Danielle has in store for us today:
