COLOR CHALLENGE 119

Hi there,

So I finally have stamped something. Like I have told you, I like to check out Splitcoaststampers challenges. Today's color challenge is to use real red, barely banana and creamy caramel. I have substituted real red with ruby red. The size of the card is 5 1/4" x 5 1/4". I started out with deciding to use Both Way Blossoms today. And since these stamps are quite large, I had to make a larger the usual card that I usually make. The sentiment is from Happy Harmony.

CHECK OUT TLC 121 - SPEEDY CARDS FOR GOOD CAUSES

Good morning!
And it is Monday again! Time just seems to fly. As you may have noticed I do not post on weekends. This is time that I spend with my family. I hope you don't mind. I love spending time with you too.
I have not stamped for several days due to having life going on around me and actually lacking some stamping mojo. So usually the first thing I check out online after I read my mail is the SCS challenge for the day. Today's challenge is to make a quick card to send to someone who needs some cheering up, who needs to be thought of, who needs to be prayed for. This is a great challenge. It is a challenge for me to make a pretty simple card. So how about trying this out with me?
I have a number of erands to run, so if I could come up with something quick and pretty, that would be perfect.

POSTING PROBLEM?

I guess you have noticed my multiple post. This morning when I tried to post it didn't show up, so I tried it several times, and now I have multiple posts??!! I am glad that they did show up though.

CELEBRATION OF YOU - WINNER!

Good morning !
Thank you all for celebrating YOU with me! It was great to get to know you all a little better. I enjoyed reading all your comments and checking out your blogs. This is a great stamping community and I love the fact that I have the oportunity to meet ladies from all over the place, whom I would never have heard of before.

So I asked my hubby to pick a random number between the number of comments 1-38, and he quickly said: "26, what for?" So I told him that this was the lucky winner.
S0, number 26 is CLAUDIA F - SCFRANSON
She said: "You have a wonderful blog. I'll be back often. I sometines stamp/scrap in the afternoon when my daycare kids are sleeping but mostly on Saturday's while my DH is at work. I wish I had more time and lots more work space. Claudia F"
Thank you for your comment Claudia. Please email me your mailing address so that I can get your candy in the mail ASAP.

So, I'm off to read my mail and check to see if SCS is in a better mood today. LOL!
Thank you all again ahd have a great Friday!

SKETCH CHALLENGE 128

This is a great sketch challenge today! I really like it because it came together for me very quickly. I KNEW right away what I wanted to do with it.

I used the dp I bought at Costco which matches very vell with Bashful Blue, and Certainly Celery. I got out my Seaside Sketches and used watercolor pencils and crayons. I stamped it on watercolor paper with staszon black first.

So, now I want to go and make another one. I have another idea floating in my head. Better go with it before it leaves.
