YNS #50 Challenge - Song Inspired

Hey peeps.  Today there's another challenge at Your Next Stamp.  I love this challenge.  We had the chance to make a card inspired by a song.  I used this adorable mother hen image for my card.  Just too darn cute and the sentiment is over the top for me. 


Is this just too darn cute or what?!?!  Love it!!!!  And then of course I had to add a You Tube Video to show a little "chicken dance".  Now, let's see your song inspired card.  Make sure to add a link so I can see a video to match your card.  You have until MIDNIGHT (EST) September 13th to get you card linked up.

Anything Goes HSIC #13

Happy Monday.  It's time for another challenge at Heart Songs Inspiration Blog.  This week you can do anything you want or use your favorite color.  I love these kinds of challenges because it's creates a buffet bar of amazing cards.  I pulled out some old paper, my MS punch and some flowers to spice up my card.  I'm using the adorable Asian Doll for my inspiration today.

Now let's see what you can do. You have until SUNDAY 6pm MST to get your card/creations linked up over at the HSI blog.

Back To School

That's right kiddo....you're heading back to school!!  Well, in my case my son has been back now for almost a month.  I'm playing along with Mo's Digital Pencil and the SCS Free 4 All challenges today.  I wish I was back in school with ZERO responsibilities.  No mortgage, car note, cable bill, cell phone bill, etc.  Oh, that was the life.  I remember my mother putting my hair in two pigtails and off to school I went.  And what about NAP TIME?!?!  Nap time now is called quitting time.  No sleeping on the J-O-B. 

Well, back to reality for me.  Going down memory lane brings back some super sweet memories.  Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a fab Friday.

Doing the Humpty Hump!!!

I'm doing the humpty dance.  That's right it's hump day baby.  Well, really my hump day is just about over.  So I'm really sliding into Thirsty Thursday. :-)  Had a chance to get into my stamp room and come up with a card for the Kenny K and Tuesday Throwdown challenges.  I just love having an image and paper already coordinated.  Had this sitting in my folder waiting for a card.  Perfect!!  All I had to do was cut up the layers, add some details and viola....a card!!

Thanks for swinging by tonight.  Time to scope out You Tube for some funny videos so share with co-workers.  How do we say it ladies...."sweet baby, sweet baby, sweet baby".  LOL

MoJo is showing up Green

Oh, I'm moving a little slow today.  Glad you stopped back by.  I have an inspection at work today and I'm dreading it.  Nothing too serious but people get all worked up and lose focus of what is important.  I thought I would get my day started in my stamproom.  Yep...it's 3:00am and I'm up stamping.  I know...I'm crazy. 

I'm posting my card to enter in this week's MoJo Monday Challenge and Paper Sundaes challenge.  Well, I guess if I'm going to make it to work I better get some sleep.  Five-thirty is right around the corner.

DP2 Challenge #96

Hey everyone.  Hope you are enjoying your weekend.  Today has been one of those lazy Saturday where you just don't do anything.  I've stayed in my pj's all day. Yay for me!!  I'm usually all over town doing something but not today.  I cut coupons, read a magazine and clean up my stamp room.  Then I thought I would sit and make a card for Mo's Digital Pencil challenge.  I already had Video Boy colored in except for his shirt and sneakers so I was able to get this one completed in no time. 

I hope you like me card today.  I'll be back tomorrow with something new to show you.

CMC Challenge #24

Morning peeps. Glad we are now one day away from the weekend.  I had the chance to make a card the the CMC challenge.  For this challenge you had to color your embellishments and have a friend theme.  Thanks to my bestie Wendy for letting me borrow this adorable image.  I can't remember for the life of me what the name of this little cutie is.  I loved coloring her.  The sentiment is from Ditto pack Lots of Love.  The paper of course is from my scrap bin.  It is now OVERFLOWING with scraps.  I think I need to get these scraps under control. :-)

Well, I'm off to work.  Have to pay for my stamp addiction some how.  Until next time.....

Hugs and happy stamping~

Your Next Stamp Challenge #49

Happy hump day everybody.  I am so glad the weekend is almost here.  I can hear Friday rounding the corner.  Your Next Stamp has another challenge for you.  This one is a good one.  You know how much sweeter summer fruit is right, well let's see some fruit on your cards.  That's right bring on the fruit!  I'm a HUGE cherry lover so my little Digger is digging his way through the cherries to wish a sweet friend of mine hello.  I think she's going to love this card.  I'm also entering Digger in this weeks Paper Sundaes and Sketch N Stash challenges.

Well, tell me what fruit you like to "hang out" with during the hot summer days.  This challenge prize will be the ever so cute Monkey Gone Banana stamp.  This monkey just cracks me up.  Remember you have two weeks to get your creation into the challenge.  Also remember when you use a YNS image you get entered into the challenge TWICE.  So swing on by the store and dig yourself up some savings.  Like my play on words?!?!  LOL.  You have until MIDNIGHT (EST) Aug 30th to get linked up.  Also, don't forget to stop by the YNS blog for Carole's first monthly post.  You are going to LOVE her! :-)

Heart Song Inspiration New Addition

Good morning everyone. Thanks for stopping by today to share in some awesome news with us.  Today's HSI challenge was to create a card with an animal as your image and/or do paper pleating.  Well I totally stink at paper pleating so I didn't want to ruin a great card.  LOL  The image here is called chick parade  and it's definitely one of my favorite images from Heart Song Designs.  Now you're probably wondering why I have the word baby in the blocks.  Well, Leah (owner of HSD) has added an addition to her family.  Leah is on her way back home from Ethiopia with her baby boy Makaio.  I am so excited for her.  So the ladies got to thinking and we thought our cards for this week's challenge should be used to honor Leah and her family.  I hope you love our cards Leah just has much as we love you.  Your little bundle of joy already has his "extended" family in place.  Super duper hugs to you.

Now if you would like to play along in the challenge this week, please make sure you link your card or creation at the challenge link.  You will have until 6 pm (MST) Sunday August 21 to get your card made.  I can't wait to see your wonderful cards.

Mo's Easel Card Challenge

You're back!!  Yay!!  Thanks for taking the time to swing by again today.  I had a chance to work on an easel card for Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge.  I swear I so love easel cards and I don't know why I don't make more of them.  I'll have to put that on the list of reminders. :-)  Your card also had to have an animal as part of the image.  I already had Zola colored so I just had to pull her from my stash and place her on this card.  I kind of try to at least pre-color parts of images so when I'm up for a challenge there's really not too much left to color in.

Hope you are all having a wonderful day.  Make sure you swing by tomorrow because it's YNS 2nd birthday and you won't want to miss a thing.

Heart Song Inspiration

Monrin', morni' peeps.  Does your neighborhood seem a little quiet theses days?  Well mine is because the little kiddos have headed back to school. The only thing you see around here in the morning are all the school buses.  Man, what happened to summer? 

Well this week's challenge at HSI blog is to make a card or creation with a back to school theme or add some circles to your card.  I'm manged to do both with the new release apple image.  Now I don't know what kids do these days but I remember at some point in school the kids giving apples to their teachers.  Did I just age myself?!?!?  Anyhow, I found this adorable paper at Claudia and Company in a sample back from October Afternoon Detour.  Worked perfect for my apple card.

I hope you have a chance to play along with us this week.  Remember you have until SUNDAY AUGUST 14TH 6PM (MST) to get you card linked up on the Heart Song Inspiration blog.   Let see your back to school or circle inspiration.

Hugs and happy stamping.

Howdy y'all.  Ready for some of the wild, wild west?!?  Okay, I'm not into the whole rodeo thing but I wanted to showcase some summer fun for the Kenny K Krafty Girlz Challenge. I think the image named Cheyenne could make it in the wild, wild west.   I'm not the one to get on the back of a pissed-off bull for the entertainment of others.  Sorry, I just don't roll like that.  LOL I'm also joining in on the fun at SCS with this week's featured stamper Joy aka Daiseyfreak. Congrats girlie.

Got to run y'all.  But glad you stopped by.  Make sure you come back because I have a world wind of stuff to show you.

The challenge this week at Your Next Stamp is beautiful borders.  Simply said, I think decorative borders add a little sumthin' sumthin' to our cards.  I used my beautiful border around my Miya from China.  She's part of the World Kids Collection at Your Next Stamp.  I have to say, I just loved coloring in this image.  She's just too adorable.

Make sure you link your image on the YNS Challenge Blog by MIDNIGHT Tuesday  August 16th.  If you don't have any of Karen's images you still have time to pop on over to the store and pick up a few things.
