Wolfie

Hi all!! OH My Gosh!! Maybe things are starting to look up finally!! We booked our Vegas vacation and Bejeweled Blitz is working on my computer again!! Yeah!!

Alright...settle down Vickie;) Time for a new challenge over at Stamp-n-Doodle! We are to make a birthday card. I tried to make a manly card. I am using the wolf image. Remember you don't have to us a Stamp-n-Doodle image but if you do you get two entries into the challenge.

Thanks for looking and hoping you found some joy today as well:):)

Birthday Card and Blah, Blah, Blah

Happy Belated New Years!!

Been a while since I have been on here. Since Mid December the kids and I have been sick. It started with the stomach bug-cold with an underlining infection and now a cough that will not go away.

Also the past couple of days Sears was dragging their heals on our tv warranty but after I made a comment how I was disappointed on their facebook page...things started rolling. Not sure if it is coincidental but taking it!

So I am back on track with my crafting...or at least I hope so;)

This week's challenge over at Stamp-n-Doodle is country living. I was making this for a happy birthday card for my Hub's uncle's birthday but since there is some pink in it I am going to have to give it to someone else. I made a sideways buckle card. Remember, you don't have to use a Stamp-n-Doodle image but if you do, you get two entries into the challenge.
Thanks for look! Happy New Year again!! Someone needs to start up an intervention to get me back into blogging!!

Kind Of Vintage;)

Happy Monday! It sure is over here. The girls have the week off for spring break! As this post is going live I am still sleeping;)

It is Monday and the beginning of the month. It is time for the April Blog Hop with Stamp-n-Doodle. If you came here from Priyanka's Creations, then you are on the right track! It is a theme challenge. The theme is vintage/shabby chic. I am also using the 50's Dreamin' image. The next stop is Stamp-n-Doodle's Shop.

STAMP-N-DOODLE is having a DT CALL and we are looking for a few motivated designers to work with STAMP-N-DOODLE images. Please visit STAMP-N-DOODLE SHOP and check out Lynne's AMAZING images. If you would like to join us, please e-mail Audrey (DT coordinator) at danmoose@aol.com
I am also using Unscripted Sketches #100.
I also used this card for a challenge over at Paper Secrets. We are celebrating Paper Secrets birthday with a load of challenges and games. I did the Birthday Card challenge. We were to use the colors of the Paper Secrets theme.

My Creative Mojo Block Is Lifting

Was a little creative this weekend and made a card using a few challenges.
Here is a sketch from Sketches By Tamara.
The other challenges:
Paper Secrets, we were to use at least 5 outlets or brads.
The Special 50/50, I used the cupcake digi stamp from Lil Diva Stamps.

Thanks for looking at my card and I hope you all have a great week:)

Birthday Card and Who's Birthday?

Hey you all...long time no see!! I just can't believe I am not blogging like I used too.

I made this birthday card with two challenges.

I used Unscripted Sketches sketch challenge. Though while I did the card a few days ago I am late entering the challenge. But still must give credit.
I also used the color challenge over at Paper Secrets.
Now the card looks better in person. I had ink the edges with Tim Holtz's Distess Ink Maple Stain but it looks so stark! Like I used black ink.

p.s. It is my birthday today. I was supposed to work but because not a lot of people are scrapping...I got the day off!!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Birthday Card

After seeing the Cupcake Craft Challenges button all over the place, I decided to check it out. Here is the current sketch with them.
Here is my take on that sketch. I am really into inking the edges lately.

Thanks for looking at my card:)

Just Some Cards

I made this card for a challenge on Facebook.

I made this card for my Niece's birthday. She liked it. Before she opened her gift she looked at me and asked if I made the card. I told her yes and she said thank you. I felt pretty good:) I also made it for the SBS #26 challenge.

Oh My Gosh, I Am 38

Yup today is my 38 bithday. The day I was born, my Mom told me the weather would not make up its mind. It either rained, hailed or snow. By afternoon it was a minor blizzard. She also told me I was a fast labor. I think that is good. My middle labor was fast and I was happy.


I will not be doing much. Actually in the morning, I have to take Michaela to the doctors. For a while now she has been complaining of stomach pains. Almost daily. Her diet sucks. If I cook what she doesn't like she doesn't eat. She hates a lot of stuff. It is hard to please her. I think she looks like a refugee from ethiopia. I think she looks thin. Maybe the two are connected, I don't know. I just feel better taking her in.

By the way, Lost is driving me crazy!

Shabby Chic B-Day Card

This is a birthday card I made for someone. The only issue I have is the blue cardstock. It has a white core and when I had folded it, it cracked down the middle. You can see the white showing through. But, as I kept on working it wasn't looking so bad. I thought "shabby chic is in". I hope the person thinks that as well.

Recipe:
