Happy Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday!

Yesterday I spent a few hours working on cards for the upcoming Dirty Dozen gallery then I developed a wicked migraine and all things came to a halt...ugh! Hoping to get a few more things done today though!

I'm showing you LAST Tuesday's Colour Challenge card....this is what I was meaning to show you yesterday...lol Sorry that you had to see my sketch cards twice...

I THINK the colours were Soft Sky, River Rock and Whisper White....at least that is what I see here in my card...haha!

I used the Bunny Slippers stamp set from MFT. I LOVE this stamp...it's totally adorable isn't it?!

Here's a journal that I'm going to give Chloe for our vacation travels next month. We usually buy her a little disposable camera and she snaps pictures of EVERYTHING. Then we get home she forgets where it was that she saw things...lol Hopefully having a little notebook to write a few memories down will help her when her film is developed ;)
Thanks for stopping by today!

Hanna Shops

Good Afternoon!

I haven't had any time today to stamp but I wanted to share a card I made last night. I soooooo love this Hanna stamp! She's so fun!

I picked up some Scenic Route DP last week and thought it would look great with Fabulous Flowers stamp set. Then when I went to use it....it really was TOO much together. So out came Hanna!

I hope to have some time this evening to look at the challenge on SCS. Hope it's something I can do ;)

Gotta run!

Thanks for stopping by!

Winter Bright SSK cards

Wow it's another chilly one here today! With the windchill it's expected to be highs anywhere from -20 to -25C....lol...next week -7C yah! That will be a HEATWAVE!

I am off on a field trip with Chloe this afternoon to the Festival of Trees. She is singing with her school choir there. Oh joy, a bus load of kids screaming...ugh! I'd rather drive myself but don't want to pay the parking downtown Edmonton! It's outrageous!

Carla from Moralia weblog sent me some stamped images and I couldn't wait to use this one in particular! It's so funny! I don't know who makes this stamp but if I was to guess, it's probably by High Hopes. If you know...holler at me ;) Thanks Carla for these super cute images!

I added glitter on the snow and coloured the image with my blender pen and inks.

I had stamped some of these ornaments from Hanna Stamps last week and thought they'd look nice with the paper from the WinterBright SSK. I'm so happy that Nancy made me nice RAKs with it...I had to break down and buy the kit after that!
Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you all have a fabulous day!

Some challenge cards

Thank goodness it is the weekend! I'm looking forward to seeing my friend, Karen, tomorrow! She is coming up to visit us and go to the Oilers vs Flames hockey game! We have front row seats along the boards...can't wait!

I don't want to be stamping while she is here so I'm going to try and get a few more challenges done after these ones so I'll have something to post this weekend ;)

This first card was done for Nancy Morgan's Paper Smiles challenge. She wanted us to make a Thanksgiving or Thank You card using DP and give it to someone. This is what I made for my friend Karen and will give it to her on Sunday when she goes home.
