Get Well Soon --PP211

August 31, 2014

It's Sunday and time for The Paper Players Challenge!  This week the lovely, Nance has a Tic-Tac-Toe Board for us!  I absolutely love game board challenges.  There are SOOOO MANY possibilities and the creative choices are endless.  I decided to use the last column-Buttons, Get Well and Purple but, then realized I also used the bottom row, Patterned Paper, Ribbon and Purple!  It was a win-win!  Have fun and I can't wait to see what you design!!!



Don't forget to stop by each member of the Design Team's blogs for inspiration!










Thank you for visiting my blog.  I love to hear from you, so please leave a comment!

Wishing you a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!

Happy Stampin'!

Happy Wonderful Christmas--Merry Monday #123

August 28, 2014

Today has been a very sad day.  We had to attend a funeral this morning.  With that being said, I am going to make my post short and sweet.  My heart is heavy tonight.

The Merry Monday Challenge gave me a chance to use my new stamp set and Framelits:  Wondrous Wreath.  The holiday catalog went LIVE today!  You can order all your supplies for the holiday online 24/7. 

I wanted my card to have a rustic feel, so I used non-traditional colors for my card.  I hope you enjoy it!



 






Please leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.  I cherish your comments!

Thanks for stopping by! 

Happy Stampin!

Thinking of You-Tap, Tap, Tap--CMCC No35

August 27, 2014

It has not been a good few days for me.  We had a sudden death in our circle and Miss Addison got strep and a sinus infection and came to stay with me because she didn't need to be around her new baby brother.  Now, I have a cold and I am praying that I don't get strep.  Life has certainly been coming at me the last few days.  I am behind on some of my responsibilities on my blog and for that I apologize!

This post is a little late, but I hope you will all join us at the Colour Me Challenge this week!  The colors are Marina Mist, Tangelo Twist, Very Vanilla, Pink Pirouette and a Neutral.  Can't wait to see all of your wonderful creations with this fun set of colors!  


Please stop by all the Design Team's blogs for inspiration and lots of wonderful ideas!


I wanted to use the Tap, Tap, Tap Stamp Set this week on my card.  When I saw Marina Mist was one of the colors in the combo, I knew it was the right choice.  When I was in college, there were no computers---ok I know that I am OLD----my roommate had a trusty blue typewriter that we shared and wrote a lot of papers on.  I remember many late nights trying to get a paper done. --- The professors would NOT let you use erasable paper, so it never failed that I would get to the last line and have to start over.  So, my card is in memory of the old, blue typewriter!  ENJOY!








Maybe this old typewriter will bring back some memories for you!

Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of my card.  I love to hear from you!  

Let me know if you need a catalog!  The Holiday Catalog goes live tomorrow!!!!  How exciting is that?!?!?!?

Happy Stampin'!
