New Stamper in da hooouse....

This first card is one that Harlee made for todays challenge on SCS....it turned out really cute. You had to base your card on Pottery Barn Teen Collection, so she chose polka dots, she punched out her dots using my 1" punch and glued them down as you see here and she had the "cute" sticker and it fit perfectly in the circle.... Great job !!!!!

{Sorry I was clapping for Harlee}

Ok, now the sheep card..... First let me tell you that I didn't get home this morning until 1 am, I went to a crop at my niece's house and we were having so much fun that we all didn't want to stop, hence the 1 am arrival home....LOL

Well, you know how us ladies are when we get together and we were showing different things that we had created or seen and wanted to try, so I was showing all the ladies the punches and decided to make the sheep that I had seen on Dawn's blog....well, one thing lead to another and we started adding the rear and I thought about the commercial of Serta mattresses, and this is what came about.... bwahahahahahahahaha

Hope you have had a giggle today....if not from this blog, maybe another blog, but keep on GIGGLING!!!

Painting...

...something I need to get back into. This is a mural that I painted on our living room wall. Its the "Tater House" in Roopville, GA on Hwy 27.... If you have ever driven down Hwy 27 you can't miss it. As soon as I drove by it the first time I knew that I wanted to paint a picture of it. I love old buildings like that, they have so much character. Jeff wanted me to add Booboo in the picture somehow, so there he is resting on the porch like he belongs there.

I will probably post again later, I have a few ideas for cards. The crop I went to yesterday was so much fun and a few ideas got bounced around the tables....

I'm excited to get started on a few.... so back later today with a card hopefully....

Scrappy day....

...I don't have a card to post today, 'cause I'm getting stuff together to go to my niece's house to crop. I usually drag half my stuff over there and barely scrape the surface to complete my page(s). I'm sure all you fellow scrappers have experienced that a time or two.

Today I wanted to share with you a page that I created right around Christmas... don't panic..... Harlee is perfectly fine, here's the story:

She went to a sleepover party in November and they arranged for the parents to pick up the guests at the school the following day, and while waiting for parents to arrive the girls were playing on the playground. This playground uses the bark for ground cover, now you see where I'm going....

She got some bark in her eye and she rubbed it before telling anyone and she scratched her eye.

Her daddy told her to rest her eyes and this was her way of doing just that, she patched it herself. You can tell by the expression on her face that she is not a happy camper about me taking pictures, but I couldn't help it. It was just too cute and too ingenious on her part to patch her eye.....well any case...she longer wears a patch and her eye is as good as new....

I mean really, look at those eyes, I would never want anything to happen to those. People stop us while we are out and about just to look at her eyes (they are a very strange color).

If you are still reading, bless your heart and I hope you have a great day!!!

A little different today...

...not normally colors that I would use, but I used the colors from the Making Memories DSP...

I thought it was fun and bright....and the challenge for today on SCS is a card sketch and it had the two stars placed on it as you see it on my card. First thing I thought of was the new set from SU!, A Little Somethin' (available the 19th). It has this Rock Star stamp in it (too cute!), it was perfect.

Supplies:
Stamps: A Little Somethin', Priceless
Card stock: Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie
DSP, making memories
Inks, Ballet blue, kiwi kiss
Water color paper
Blue brad
