Hello GOURD-geous


Hello Saturday night, doing a quick driveby post that I meant to do this morning.  I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from the September card sketch from Stick it Down.  I used some paper scraps from my stash along with another cut apart from the Craft Smith Pumpkin Spice paper pad and some Recollections wooden dots.  Another signature clean and simple card done and ready to go postal.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #66 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you will return soon.

Thursday Musings


Hello and happy Thursday, clouds and rain in the forecast for our area today.  I'm doing a quick driveby to remind you about the Cut it Up blog hop tomorrow and to share a sign that I created recently.  I think it looks better in person, overcast outside so it's hard to get a good picture.  On game day this is what you'll see me waving in honor of baby girl who is one of the team captains for her volleyball team.  I used All Sports, Cuttin' it Up, Fontastic Fonts and Teen Scene Cricut cartridges.  I stamped the doll face using the Peachy Keen Princess Face set  and colored the lips with a glittered marker.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll return soon.

National Cooking Day


Hello and happy Tuesday and National Cooking Day!  Cloudy and humid in our area with rain in the forecast for day.  I'm doing a super quick drive by post where I am sharing my planner pages for this week.  I went to a BWWPC meet-up on Saturday and worked on my weekly LO and finally finished last night so I'm sharing it today!  I was going with a Fall theme since this is the first full week of Fall and wanted to use that silhouette of the volleyball player since it had been laying around since last year.  My planning is just like my scrapbooking clean and simple!  Take care and I hope you will

Tag - So Thankful


Good evening, I am back today with my second post!  I am sharing a tag that I created for the Make~Motivate~Connect Link Up Party  #6  Make a Tag challenge hosted by Christina from Creations With Christina.  The pattern piece of paper used to cover the tag has been in my stash quite a while and I'm not sure where I go it.    I used some TH twine, a Darice tree and leaf die, a sticker for the sentiment and a few sequins as embellishments.  I am also sharing this tag for the following challenges:

Anything Goes challenge  #66 - Cardz TV 
Challenge #387 - Tic Tac Toe - Die Cuttin' Divas  (top row)
Challenge #76 - Always Fun Challenges

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend.

Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps and no rain in today's forecast.
