For a music challenge swap:)


This rockabella card was made for a few reasons. #1...its for a music swap i am in that we had to use lyrix on the front of the card that are true to us...well i couldn't think of anything more true to me:) #2..i used CC202 on SCS..bravo burgandy, kiwi kiss, regal rose..ummmm well it works i guess #3..It is a card for Bellas Favourite stamper on the bella forums. We have to case Jane, here is the card i choose. Jane has an amazing gallery so go check it out:) #4...for the bella bash challenge we had to pick a love song and make a card...well this may not be a love song to everyone, but sure holds special meaning to me:)
Pretty simple card...usually when i do swap cards they are pretty simple since i have to make 6!
Well that is it for me today:) Have a good one!!

oh...how i hate valentines day....


really i do...even when i was with someone i loved a lot, i hated this holiday! I am a believer that if you love someone you don't need a holiday to let them know, you should let them know everyday! I usually work on this holiday so i don't have to deal with it! lol Anyway...this is a card i made for a card kit swap...i really don't like it, but maybe it will do something for someone else. Maybe its because i hate the holiday that it turned out so crap...maybe its because i am tired??? lol

Nurse Nellie!!


Awwwwwwww isn't she sweet?? I was asked to make a birthday card for a nurse. This is all i have to do with nurses so i hope the lady likes it! I used CTMH dsp, i find it so hard to match with SU cardstock so i did the best i could!

I used my nesties to cut nurse nellie and the sentiment out. I am really trying to use my scraps! i organized them today, it helped a bit!! :)

For my SBS gals your challenge this week is to make a card with 7 embelishments on it:)

Well off to physio, wish me luck!!

HUGS!!

Oh the poker champion:)

Sooooooooooooooooo...yesterday our boss had a meeting at his house, the usual boring stuff. Then we had a chef make us all dinner!! Oh i should have taken pictures!! We had carrot soup with walnuts in it, crab cakes, salad, beef tenderloin with purple potatoes (weird, but soooooo good), and for dessert we had a pear thing, a crepe thing and some chocolate ball thing (can you tell i know nothing about food!! ha ha). And we had a different wine for each course...well i don't drink often so you can image i was a little tipsy by the end!! So my bosses wife wouldn't let us play poker at his house, since its a school night and we play until 4am or so. So my wonderful boss drove us all to the Embassy Suites in Niagara Falls, we had an amazing room looking over the falls!! I don't think anyone really cared, they all just wanted to drink! So we started playing poker and drinking some more. I was having amazing luck (which i never have with poker)...i took out 3 people in a row (with 3 full houses!! yikes). By the end of the night this guy Rob and i were the last ones in and we just split the pot (although i had way more chips than he did so really i won!!). It was a great night, and makes me very thankful that i have a great boss who takes care of us all!!!
Well i have to go to the funeral home now and then off to bowling! So no card today, maybe after bowling if i am not too tired (didn't get much sleep!!).
HUGS!!

Catching up on the Bella Challenges!!


So i made this card yesterday but thought i would save the post so you would have something to read today! I used BSC63 and BCC62 for this one. I had a hard time with the colours since i never use orange or yellow that often! The colours are only orange, tempting turquoise, yo yo yellow and chocolate chip. I used my copics to colour the

image that i got from my bella sistah Sarah! I have never used this image and it was fun! I used some of my new prima flowers i bought with my Michaels GC i got for Christmas and used a bella dot for the center.

Well i am going to a hockey game today, its the old hockey players from the Buffalo Sabres, not sure who they are playing though!

Have a great sunday!

HUGS!

did i find it???


my mojo that is...well i made a card...i feel like its missing something though! Oh well you decide!

I made this card for a swap i am in. I had to make a birthday card with a magnolia stamp and ribbon. The colours are brocade blue, summer sun and chocolate chip. You can't tell but i sanded the cuttlebug background to lighten it a bit. I cut out edwin and have him sitting on the ribbon. i think it needs something...oh well i am going to package it up and send it off so does it really matter?? lol

So far today i have cleaned my room, fixed my bed, have done some laundry and cleaned my stamp space. Lets see what else i can get accomplished today:) I am going out with my friend Hideko for dinner, so not sure if i will have time, we will see though.

I got some sad news today that my friend Crystal's Grandma passed away:( She was a funny lady. Its sad that Crystal is in AB though and can't come home for the funeral. I will go though (the family are my ex-inlaws but i love them to pieces!) Crystal's mom is like a mom to me. (too bad her son had to be a jerk off! lol)

Ok enough babble for one day, i have to finish these cards!!!

HUGS!

This is getting out of hand!!
