My Little Allstar

A few weeks ago, my daughter’s cheerleading team had their very first cheerleading competition (this was during the weekend of Leadership – which is why I didn’t attend). Anyhow, they did an AMAZING job and came in second place (only one point out of first!). I decided that I’d put together a page for my [...]

For My “Marvellous” Valentine

Can you believe that I actually got some “me time” this week? Seems like it has been FOREVER since that has happened! First, I wanted to thank you all for enjoying my last two projects so much. I have received so many private messages and comments on them – thank you to each and every [...]

Hope Squared – Inkspirations Challenge #55

This week at Inkspirations, we’ve got an amazing sketch for you all to try your hand at. At first I was a wee bit intimidated but once you get started, it’s a super fun breeze! Here is a quick peek at the sketch but make sure you head over the Inkspirations Blog to see the [...]

Pretty Purses

This week at Create with Connie and Mary there is a fantastic inspiration challenge! Now I am not one to usually use pink – I mean I love it but I don’t use it too often. However this week, the inspiration photo called for a big dose of pink and black! Oh, and I was [...]

Sweet Sale-A-Bration

TODAY IS THE DAY! Sale-A-Bration officially starts today, yippee! In honour of the start of this most amazing special, I made a card using some Sale-A-Bration products. I was inspired by the Mojo Monday sketch this week and by the colours in the Ice Cream Parlour Ribbons and Buttons (SAB). The base of this card [...]

Hope Your Birthday is “Tweet”

I was feeling a lack of mojo this weekend so I pulled two different challenges out to try to find it. The first challenge I was trying to work with was this week’s Colour Q 68 and the Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge was the second. WOW – what a humdinger of a pair! Then [...]

For My Friend (who I miss already) – Inkspirations Challenge #54

So I think I mentioned once already this week that my friend has moved to Iowa. I’m sad and miss her terribly. So she was my inspiration for this card because she loves to read. That and the latest Inkspirations Challenge! You’ve gotta get on over to the Inkspirations Challenge Blog and see what’s up [...]

Hello Baby

This week at Create with Connie and Mary, they’ve got a great sketch challenge! I thought I’d pair it with the SU Only Challenge of doing a baby card. Here is the sketch: For my card (it is 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 square) I used Marina Mist for the base. I grabbed a piece [...]

For my “fancy” Friend

So I have this friend. Even at 6am on a camping trip she looks good. After a very late night she looks good. So I call her “fancy” (but you have to imagine me saying it drawn out like “faaaannnccccyyyy”). My fancy friend and I recently had a very dear friend and her family move [...]

Love Y-O-U

Yep, I was at the alphabets again! After yesterday’s card, I decided to keep with the letter theme and for the latest Inkspirations Challenge I ran with the spelling idea. This week at the Inkspirations Challenge Blog you’ll find the most awesome sketch! It is great the way it is intended or the way I [...]
