Happy Birthday!

Good Morning!  How is everyone doing?  I just had a 3 day weekend due to the President's Day holiday here in the US.  It was so great to have yesterday off. 

Today's theme for Going Grey with Scrap-Creations is an easy one!  Happy Birthday!  I used 2 of my new Lili of the Valley stamps on mine.  I love this little girl blowing on the dandelion  and I thought Wishing you a Magical Birthday went really well with it.  Check out the other wonderful creations from our DT's listed on my sidebar.

Spring Fever

Good Morning!  How is everyone!  Everything here is good.  The weather seems to be getting better.  Yesterday we hit 49 degrees.  Later this week it will happen again!  It doesn't look like much of the snow melted but I'm sure we made some progress it is just hard to tell because there is so much of it.

Speaking of Spring.....The theme for this week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations is Thinking of Spring!  We have the most wonderful sponsor also...Bugaboo Stamps!  If you have not been there you need to go and check them out.  They have the cutest stamps for every occasion.  This is one of them and I just love her.  She was so much fun to color.  Time to dust off all those Spring stamps and play!

Happy Valentines Day

It's Friday!!!  YEAH!!!  It has been a long couple of weeks at work and I can really use this weekend!  It is suppose to be cold here but no snow so that means I can actually get out of the house and have fun or stay in and make cards.  Either sounds good to me!

A couple of weeks ago I got picked as a top cards at Raise the Bar.    They invited me to be a Guest DT last week but I was too busy to make a card and they were nice enough to invite me to Guest DT this week.  The theme of the challenge this week is Valentines Day without using Red or Pink.   This opened up a world of possibilities.  I choose this great stamp by Mo Manning.  She is so cute with all the flowers.  I, of course, went with Blue and Purple as my color choices.   You should pull out your Valentine or Love stamps and pop over to Raise the Bar and play. 

The other wonderful challenges this card fits are:

Animal Antics

Happy Tuesday?  I say that because we are getting more snow!  Luckily we are only getting 3-5 inches.  Enough to make everything really messy but not too much to shovel.

Since it is Tuesday it is time for our next Going Grey with Scrap Creations challenge.   We have not only a great theme but a wonderful sponsor.  The theme is Animal Antics and the sponsor is Robyn's Fetish stamps. When I saw this stamp that Robyn was kind enough to supply I thought of spring and I knew that was the stamp I was using. 

You need to check out the other wonderful cards made with Robyn's stamps.  You can find the DT's listed on my sidebar.

The other wonderful challenges my card fits are:

Cupcake Craft - Seeing Red - I made this card when I got together with the Gals for stamping day.  I'm glad I did because I couldn't find any good paper for this card and Kristen found some in her stash for me.

Crafty Catz - Plaid - I love plaid!!  This plaid paper worked great for my card.

Stamp Something - Use a Digi - I used a Robyns Fetish digi on my card.


For Fun - Spring or Winter - I choose Spring!  I can't wait to see all the lakes unfreeze and see people pulling out their boats!

Craft your passion - Anything Goes - I love these themes!!!  Perfect fit!

Critter Sketch - Critters - Isn't this bunny cute!!! 

Thank you for stopping by.  Thanks to everyone who leaves a comment.  I love reading all of them.
