The first half of 2014 is behind, and we are full-swing into summer.  July is a fun and exciting month in the United States as its Independence is celebrated throughout the country on the 4th.  The first of July is also a big day for our neighbors to the north, as they celebrate Canada Day.  In honor of these patriotic holidays, the designers at Scraps N Pieces have an awesome monthly collab.

Introducing This is My Country...

This month's CU Grab bag has gone metal, and is 25% off.

This month's Bits N Pieces' colors are so soft and pretty, and the participating designers rocked the color palette with such creative themes.  Remember, each piece is $1 each during the first week.  Grab some and be sure to participate in the monthly BnP challenge for forum points.

Have a couple hours free time?  Who does really?  But in case you do, be sure to jot down the July speed scrap dates.  Join in to complete a layout and earn a participation prize.

Be sure to stop in for our challenges while you're at it!  Wendy Tunison Designs is hosting the Inspired by Pinterest Challenge this month and you know she's a Pinterest junkie and has collected some fabulous inspiration for you!
