Hello, I'm back with a quick post. Since I'm home today I wanted to play along with a few challenges... This card is for the Classroom's pin-sights  challenge. I loved the colors . Now off to pack the car up.

Crafty Christmas Collaboration #1

Crafty Christmas Collaboration with Jessica Frost-Ballas
Hello, I'm enjoying another day off this week...Yeah! This one was planned, heading to Indy in a few hours for the Indiana state chess finals. My boys both qualified this year. So I will enjoy a few hours to myself before the long drive. I am sharing this card for a new challenge ... Crafty Christmas collaboration. I used the snowflake card as my inspiration, I don't own that stamp/die set so I used something I hadn't inked up yet. I really liked this idea of sending a crafty friend things to make a card. I do try to make Christmas cards all year , it helps to play along with a challenge like this. thanks for stopping by.

CC&S #207

Hello, I'm back with a fun sketch challenge from CAS Colours & Sketches. This sketch was really fun for me, I liked the options I could do with it. I chose to go simple on the background and make the sentiment the focal point. I hope you will play along with us. See you soon.

MIM #273

Hello, hope you are doing well today. I'm trying to squeeze in some relaxing crafty time tonight, in between work, feeding those hungry boys of mine, and the gym. This week's challenge was to make a spinner card. I wanted to use a die/stamp that wasn't valentine . I found I had this cute little sun. I added aqua mist cardstock inside to look like sky. Hope you enjoyed  it. See you soon.
