Let It Snow

Happy Tuesday!  Are you having a good week.  It is a short work week for most of us in the US.  I actually have 3 days off this week.  It will be busy though.  Thursday is Thanksgiving which I will be celebrating with Family, Friday I am going to a craft faire, Saturday I am going to one of our LSS for a sale they are having (maybe buy a few XMAS presents for me?) and I will be putting out my XMAS decorations on Sunday.  Then, of course, I need to do some XMAS shopping.


This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we are thinking SNOW!  Make a card or project that features Snow.  I love making snowman cards.  They require glitter and bling, 2 of the things I love!!  I know everyone has snow stamps, so pull them out and play with us.

Happy Holidays

Good Morning.  I hope everyone is having a good week so far.  I hope that if you lost your electricity due to the storm last week you have it back now.  I know someone who didn't get it back until late Sunday and someone else who is still waiting for electricity.  It's getting cold here and not good if you don't have anywhere to go to get warm.

Warm Winter Wishes

I hope it is a good morning where you are.  I know I am posting late this week.  It is because of the Storm that hit the East Coast.  I was really nervous Monday that I was going to lose my electricity for days again.  I lost it Monday afternoon and thought this was it.  I woke up yesterday and saw lights!!  I was so happy!!  I was so preoccupied with it Monday I didn't get alot done at work so I started early yesterday and didn't stop until last night.  I still have some catching up to do today but I consider myself very lucky.  There are still alot of people in town without electricity and I work with some people that won't have theirs back for 7-10 days.

This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we have an easy and fun challenge.  POP IT UP!  Make a card or project with something on it Popped up.  I love pop dots.  I think I use them on every card.

Good morning. I hope you had a nice weekend.  I got together with some friends to stamp!

Happy Fall

Good Morning.  Happy Tuesday.  I hope you had a good weekend.  I got some crafting done!  I am getting together with friends this weekend to craft so I got some images colored to play with.  Now I just need to pack up all my stuff and as you crafter's know that is the hard part.  I try not to bring everything I own but I want everything I need!

This week the Challenge at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations is Leaves!   Here all the leaves have started falling off the trees.   I would have liked to see them on the trees a little while longer but last year we had a freak snowstorm at the end of October and because all the leaves were still on the trees they were heavy and brought down alot of electric lines.  I lost my electricity for 4 days.  I never want that to happen again so they can all fall down.

Trick or Treat

Happy Tuesday!  It was a strange weather weekend here.  Saturday was near 80 degrees and Sunday never it 60 degrees.  Saturday I went with my sister and niece shopping.  We went to a Scrapbook store an hour away from where we live.  I didn't spend alot.  For some reason I couldn't find alot of what I wanted.  This was a first for me but I am really trying not to impulse buy.

This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we want you to make a project with Pumpkins on it.  I love coloring Pumpkins.  There are so many ways to color them.  Get out those pumpkins.  We would love to see what you do with them!!

Gossip Ladies

Good Morning.  I hope everyone here in the US had a nice holiday weekend.  It was really nice to have 3 days off.  I did work for some of the weekend but I am glad I did it because today I will have a much nicer day because I won't have to roll out of bed and work for 7 straight hours working on excel spreadsheets.  The rest of the weekend was really nice and relaxful so that was fun.

Today at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we have a fun challenge.  The theme is Humor.  We want you to make a project that makes us laugh!  I chose one of my IE stamps.  I love these 3 old ladies chatting over tea.  The sayings you can put with them are endless.

Make A Wish

Good Morning.  Hope your week is going well.  Can you believe it is the end of August?  I was driving down my road the other day and notice the leaves have started changing!  I can't wait!!   I hope we have a long fall season.  This weekend I made my first Fall card! 

This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we want you to make a card with the theme "Off the page".  As long as your project has something that is off the page you can play!!  I still am trying to use colors that are not my norm.  I love this color combo but had a really hard time taking a picture of it. I finally ventured outside so see if it would be washed out.  It is better than the inside one's but still does not show the real colors of the card.

Back to School

Good Morning.  Can you believe it is the end of August already?  I actually shut my AC off for the first time in over a month and love it!!!  I personally can't wait for Fall. I love opening my windows and enjoying the nice weather.  

Along with the end of the summer comes sending the kids back to school.  This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations the theme is just that.  Back to School!   I used this Saturated Canary Stamp that I love and helps a great cause.  Krista is letting you take this and another adorable stamp for free and asking that, only if you can, donate to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  It is not mandatory but it is a great cause and you get some wonderful stamps.  To read all about it and get the free digi's visit Krista's Blog.

Happy 1st Birthday!

Good Morning.  Hope you had a good weekend.  Mine was uneventful which was great.  The weather was hot, humid and rainy.  A perfect weekend to relax in the AC and make a card. 

 Lately I have been trying to change up some of the standard Pink, Blue and Purple colors that I have been using. I get into these ruts where I use the same colors and layouts all the time.   I found this DP and thought it would be perfect for this stamp and to mix things up.   I like the way it turned out.  It fits in perfect for this weeks challenge at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.   We want you to make a card or project for a child.  So get out those cutesie stamps and play along!

Happy Birthday Nicole

Good Morning!  I hope you are having a good week.  I had last week off and had meetings Monday and spent Tuesday and Wednesday catching up so I am late in posting this week.  Any free time I found has been spent watching the Olympics.  It's funny how caught up in it I get.  I watch things that I would never stop and watch other times.  It is always exciting to see how talented these people are.   

This week we have a super easy challenge theme at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.  The theme is Anything Goes!!  How easy is that?  I am using my card I made for my Nieces birthday.  She loves roses and the color Pink so that is what I used.

Good Morning.  Happy Tuesday. It is still really hot and humid here.  I am wondering if we will need to wait until Fall before getting some weather that is comfortable. 

This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we are thinking Christmas!  The theme is Christmas in July.  Originally I was thinking Green and Red but with it being so Hot here lately I then thought Snow!  This is a new stamp I bought at one of the conventions.  I love it and thought spending time with friends at Christmas is fun so this would fit. I cut out the snowman and bird, popped them up and then thought it needed more so I cut out the hat and feet and popped them up again.  You can't tell by the picture but it looks really cute IRL.

Summer Vacation

Happy Tuesday!  I hope everyone is having a good week.  Mine has been nice.  The weather is nice, I'm taking a couple days off of work which will be nice, and Saturday I am spending with friends stamping.  All in all a good week.  The only bad part is that the weather is suppose to go from cool (60's & 70's) to the high 90's later this week.  I hate the really hot weather.  It makes me want to stay in the house and AC. I would rather have the windows open.

This week at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations we thought with summer starting people are thinking about vacations so the the theme this week is to make a project about Summer Vacations!  This House Mouse stamp was perfect for it!  This card is so different from what I usually do but one thing led to another and here it is.  I hope you like it.

Wedding Day

Good Morning!  Happy Tuesday.  I hope everyone had a nice weekend.  The weather here was beautiful.  It really made me want to leave the house.  Sunday Mary, Nicole and I met up with Kristen and Pia at a yard sale one of our LSS was having.  I didn't buy anything at the Yard sale but did buy at the LSS sale.  Just what I need....more things to play with!   So many toys, so little time to play.
