CAS Quickie

Well..........I locked myself in my craft room/office/storage/dog kennel/gym/stress center today and vowed I wasn't leaving till I made a card.  I've been looking for inspiration but it was hiding just out of my reach.  I got a swap package a few weeks ago and decided that was a great place to start.

I used this gorgeous medallion that my friend Wanda Rohlfing made and added a Cricut "love" sentiment and some hearts.  Very quick, very easy, just what I needed.  It actually fits into several challenges too.  So that led me to my next post with some magical fairies.  Check it out when you're done here.

Challenges entered:

Paper Playtime - Cupid or Hearts

PCP CAS29 - Adding an embellishment

Whacky Wednesday - Valentines

Paper Romance - Clean and Simple

Polka Doodles - With Hearts
Totally Gorjuss - Sketch

Thank you so much to all of you that take the time to leave me a comment.  It means so much to me.  I read every one of them!

Go Colts...

A friend asked me to make a birthday card that had something to do with the colts.  I'm not a huge football fan myself so this was a hard one.  I found a football player image at Kenny K's and followed their sketch as well.  I tried to color my image in the uniform colors, which I had to look up online.  It's not great, but it got the job done.  Hope you enjoy.

Made with scraps!

Good Morning!  I wanted to challenge myself to using up some of my scraps.  Lately the scrap pile has been getting a bit large.  So I reorganized it in hopes that I will go there first! Yeah, right, but I can try anyway - LOL

But this card I did make completely out of things from my scrap bin.  This is an adorable picture from Stretch N Bubbles. It was offered as a freebie this week you can find it at the SNB Shop.  I just love freebies!  I made him into rudolph because I wanted to play along at Southern Girls too and they had a transport theme.  Who better to do transporting at this time of year but Rudolph!  Then Polka Doodles was looking for a quick and easy card and this definitely falls into that!  I followed this easy sketch at Get Sketchy and since the image is quite simple it was a breeze to color.  Using my bow easy made the ribbon (RRR) look beautiful.  I was able to embellish it and still had it done within half an hour.  Easy Peasy!

Recipe:

All from my stash!

And the two little ribbons on top of my image were the ends cut off from the ribbon at the bottom.  No waste!

Challenges Entered:

Stretch N Bubblse - Use image given

Southern Girls - Transport (Rudolph transports Santa!)

Get Sketchy - Sketch

Polka Doodles - Quick and Easy Christmas

Thanks for stopping by!

Autumn Blessings

Hey blogland!  It's been a week since I've been down with this darn kidney infection.  It's better but I'm still feelin weak and nauseous.  I'm sure that's normal though.  I'm post-poning my blog candy till next week so I can get some proper pictures together.

I hope everyone had a wonderful and productive halloween.  It was very quiet here.  The only kids we had were the two little ones that live next door.  They sure were cute though.  I think maybe next year I'll go over to a friends just so I can all the little ones dressed up.  I love to see what everybody's costumes are.  And at least I have candy for my boys' lunches, that'll be a treat.

I have Michelle Perkett image today "Autumn Stamp".  She's a lovely Autumn goddess.  I followed the sketch at the Pixie Cottage.  It just seemed right for her.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by last week and left me some love.  I really appreciated it!  And a warm thank you for all the prayers and love sent our way for my grandmothers masectomy coming up on Friday.  Her and my mother were both touched by your comments.  A very special thank you to my Secret Pal, your card and letter were so thoughtful.  I treasure the friendship we are growing even though I don't know who you are!

Much Love -

Jen
