Festive Friday!

Hello my scrappy friends!!

Here is a card I made for my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary.  It'll be 12 years of wedded bliss for them...with two girls!

Festive Friday blog challenge was my muse this week!

My three items from the inspiration list include:  button, scraps and the color green!  Not that these colors were even close to their wedding colors (closer to my other sister's colors, of course!), but I'm sure they will like it anyway!!



This challenge is open until Monday, November 2019, 8pm.  You have plenty of time to upload your creation!

Cherish - Best Day Ever

Hello my scrappy friends!

Finally a LO!  I've had some of the supplies sitting my on my desk for one week but wasn't feeling well or wasn't home to create it!  Well, it's done, not what I had in mind but some challenges helped me create it!  I need to add some journaling but the kids will be home soon, well now - I hear the bus - and I want to talk to them before homework and work!

I'll be entering my LO into the following challenges:

Sketch N Scrap, challenge #187 - A Sketch Challenge




Lasting Memories #466 - A Mixed Bag - Pick 3 Challenge - I used polka dots, stickers and buttons.


There is still time to enter these challenges...go for it!!!

Is It Dinner Yet?

Hello my scrappy friends!

Quick post today!  Pictures of our daughter from a few years ago during Youth Outdoor Day, practicing her rifle shooting.  She was pretty good at it, actually very good, I wish I would have gotten her into some type of shooting activity.  Who knows....Olympics or college scholarships may have been in her future but everything was kinda far away to pursue it.  Although now, I wish I would have!  
Anyway, my LO!  Lots of layers on this one.

This LO will be entered into Lasting Memories challenge #468 - Mixed Bag Word challenge.  Using the word "CRISP", use an item  that begins with each letter.  I've used Chipboard, Red, Ink, Stars, Patterned papers.  
This challenge is open until November 2nd so you have some time to create!!

I am also entering my LO into Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge.  The challenge...use patterned papers!  I love my pps and use them often and have quite a few on this page!

My Dad's Birthday

Hello my scrappy friends!

I made a quick card for my dad for his 71st birthday which is this Saturday.  It went in the mail today since the Nuvo drops weren't dry enough for mailing yesterday!  I'm pretty sure he'll get it by Saturday, maybe even Friday.

Stick It Down blog  inspired me with their card sketch, which can be found on the linked page along with the one page and double page layout sketches.

Such a great CAS card that I usually don't make but I'm liking the simplicity of my card!  I used SU! inks in different shades of blue, papers from my stash that have been there forever!! and Nuvo drops.

You have until the end of this month to enter your card at Stick It Down!! 



Check out STAMPlorations as well this month for their CAS card challenge! The color orange is the optional twist...perhaps I'll make another card for this later this month.

4th of July Party

Hello once again!  This LO is the second page of a double from a 4th party several years ago.  Once again, I need to find the date, but it's probably 8 years old.  That toddler is my niece who just turned 10 years old.  I used several scraps and mixed media along with a wooden butterfly embellishment.

This LO will be entered into the Sketches In Thyme challenge # 388.  The sketch definitely inspired me but I changed it a bit...as I tend to do!

Sixteen

Hello my scrappy friends!  Another LO I created a few weekends ago at a scrap retreat.  This is my son, last year, during his family birthday party.  Some good pictures of him, me and dad.  that background paper was a little intimidating for me but I ran with it and I LOVE it!!!  Some strips of pps,  stickers and Nuvo drops and it was completed! 

This LO will be entered into the Sketches In Thyme challenge #389.

Hello Winter

Hello again my scrappy friends!  Another LO I made during a scrappy weekend retreat a few weeks ago.  Used up so many scraps for this one but my pile of scraps never seems to lessen!!  

I was inspired by the Bitten by the Bug 2 blog challenge: Grandparents.  that baby is my now 17 year old son with his grandma (my mom) and his aunt (my sister).  They were visiting my grandmother (his great-grandmother), those are her hands by my son sitting in the chair.  Of course grandma didn't have a high chair, but she did have some pieces of a rubber tube that apparently worked just as well when he was eating!!  He enjoyed something new and was fed without incident!!
