****SECOND POST, PLEASE SCROLL FOR PENNY'S CHALLENGE CARD****

Tic-Tac-Toe or Three-in-a-Row.....that is the challenge over at Tellen's Place this week! I hadn't had the time in a week or so to play, so I was excited to get to today! Terry has 9 boxes with things your card or project must have. I chose the ribbon, button, and punch for this card.

And, as always....the gracious Terry has provided us with a wonderful fun image. This image put me right there in second grade, jumping rope at recess! I went with a vintage stack of daisy d's dps for this one! I'm really pleased with the final product. Be sure to play along this week, Terry and the lovely designers are offering a yummy prize pack for the winner, AND your choice of TWO FREE Tellen's Place digi's.

Blessings,

With Every Leaf...

Good Morning Ladies,

I can't get a good photo this morning. It's VERY humid here, I wonder....

Anyways, hopefully you can get the gist of this album cover for my Ben's fall book. I totally used the Spring CTMH catty cover as my inspiration for this one. This little 6 X 6 album is coming together as on of my favorites. Have a great Thursday!

Blessings,

Hello...

Good Sunday Morning,


I have a quick post for today. I was checking out Amy R's Friday Sketch and loved this. As I am so into the vintage daisy d's right now, this card is also using more of that paper. The flowers are part of the little die cut sheet that was in the pack. I just cut a slit down toward the center so I could curl up the petals and give just a touch of dimension. I also inked the lace with just a hint of the walnut stain on a sponge. Hope you enjoy and have a blessed day!

Happy Saturday,

I had a blast yesterday! My MIL and I went antique shopping ALL day long. I am looking for little antique and quaint pieces to put into my little Ashlea's new room here at my house. Ashlea came over last night and was thrilled with the little talble and bed I had gotten. It is a slow process but I am closer. As I said a little while back, I am moving my studio into this room as well. All furniture is being painted white. Now my scrap room used to be chili pepper red. I am sanding, priming, and painting myself silly, but it is going to be beautiful when finished.

Anyways, to my card for today. I am still using daisy d's Moda collection. It is easy to get to right now with all the other "creating" going on in the house. I was over at Brenda's blog last night and came across Jamie's sketch. I adore this sketch. Both ladies have terrific blogs and are soooo very creative, hop on over to check them out. Hope you enjoy this card and have a beautiful blessed weekend!

You Make My Heart Flutter...

As we all awaken this morning to the tragic news of the loss of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson, I pray for both families that God will help them through His unending love for all His children.

This brings me to my card for the IC Sketches 22 challenge this week. As saddend as I was by this loss, I wanted to remind my hubby just how much I love him. Not for all the big wonderful things he does, but for all the little everyday things he does for me and our amazing life together.

The challenge was to create a window in your card. I must say, this is the first window card I've made and I think I just might be hooked! I hope you enjoy....

Unscripted Card

I wanted to make a card this afteroon using this week's Unscripted Sketch. I'm still using up old stash, so I pulled out some daisy d's Moda collection for this card. Just want to say that daisy d's is one of my favorite lines of paper! I wanted to layer it up but wasn't really sure which papers to put where. As lovely and vintage as this paper is, I didn't want to do an image, just a sentiment. I had it finished and then felt like something was missing so, I added the bling. I can't decide if I like the bling or not...

bling: Prima
