Happy Monday everyone! I'm running a little slow on the Friday Flair Features this week, sorry! Not that you guys really care, they are all my very own, self imposed deadlines. Sweet EllieG {Lara} from Less Cake More Frosting had a great guest post last week at Taradara about blogging and she highlighted the self imposed deadlines… Thanks for the reminder my sweet friend!
With that said, lets take a look at what caught my eye this week…

Here is a fun Local Love post for all of our Arizona friends! Have you heard of Glitter Academy? It's put together by some of my most favorite people out there and it's an event not to be missed!! ANYONE can participate in this fun event… you don't have to be a blogger, all you need is to be bitten by the creative bug to come and participate!! Below you will find out what it's all about…
Brought to you by:
The Glitter Girls

If you have been to any of the Arizona Girls’ Night Out’s with Kristyn and Steph or Craft nights with Jamielyn you know they certainly know how to throw a fantastic party! The AZ GNO’s created quite the buzz around blog land and sold out in a matter of minutes!! Because the demand and hype was so great, we have decided to go bigger and better and give women all over Arizona something to talk about! Together we have joined forces to create The Glitter Academy!
We have booked a facility for our next event that has enough space to hold 150 guests! Are you getting excited?! The plans are well in the works, and you can guarantee It is going to be absolutely fabulous! It will definitely be the biggest Craft Extravaganza in AZ. The night will consist of 6 crafty tutorials for guests to learn new techniques & make holiday décor and gifts. We will have a delicious dessert bar and plenty of time to meet and chat with other creative minds in Arizona. This event is a great place to network for bloggers, but we are welcoming THE ENTIRE CRAFT COMMUNITY. Bring your friends, mom, sisters, neighbors… whoever!!
The Glitter Academy’s FIRST event will be held held at My Noah’s in Chandler, AZ on

Lemons are the quintessential summer fruit and though our summers are {hopefully} winding down to a dull burn, we can still enjoy the pleasures that this snappy little citrus provides.
Conjured into life by Lauren Brennan, these gently sweet, chewy and tender Lemon Crinkle Cookies are award winning, and you’ll know why the moment you take one bite and let the flavors dance on your tongue. Stirred up with zest and freshly squeezed lemon juice and rolled in a soft dusting of powdered sugar, they are the perfect punch for your lemon craving.
Here’s the recipe:

I hope everyone had a fun and safe Labor Day yesterday. We had a ball swimming and playing games with some great friends!
With Labor Day now come and gone it's time to start getting ready for one of my favorite times of the year… AUTUMN! Lifestyle Crafts is launching their new line of Holiday die cuts and I'm so excited to give you a sneak peak…
I made this fun Halloween treat container using the cute skull and cross bones {made from the turkey leg die cut} along with the Spooked Printing Plates using the Epic Letterpress. Isn't it fun?
