Flopsy In The Rain

Hello! Yesterday, was a great day with beautiful weather, talking with friends, bible study and even a few hours out with my hubby. Today, will be another good day, although laundry is a must.

We have a wonderful challenge over at Creative Knockouts for you this week. First I would like to thank Crafty Sentiments Designs for being our sponsor this week and for letting me create with Flopsy in the Rain. The image is super adorable.
Challenge #213 - Lots of Layers

It was so much fun to breakout my new die set from Gina Marie Designs, my embossing folder from Stampin Up as well as the papers. The enamel dots are from Your Next Stamp and the image was colored using Copic Markers.

Wishing You Brighter Days...


Good morning! We have had an amazing and beautiful day/week so far. The temperatures are so much warmer than last week. A highlight of this week for me was seeing my fellow chick Leanne and her hubby Brian. They were able to stop and see where we live now. Our husbands got to meet for the first time too which was awesome. Onto why you are really here...

There is a brand new challenge over at 4 Crafty Chicks and our wonderful hostess this week is our one and only Lori! She would like us to use, black, white and other color. Such a fun and easy peasy challenge right? I chose white, black and red.

Challenge #369 - Black, White and Other Color

My card above is made using Stampin' Up products (paper, embossing folder, stamps, oval punch, dimensional and marker). The square die with the stitched pieces is a Gina Marie Designs. The flowers are unknown and the enamel dots are by Your next Stamp. It was such a blast to use this stamp set, as it has been in my craft room for a while.

Please come and join us and my fellow chicks for our brand new challenge.

Thank you so much for stopping by and please have an amazing/wonderful day!

Today belongs to you...


Good morning! The past few days have been really chilly and we had a hard frost here in Wainwright! Even some places in Alberta had snow this week :(. We are hoping to do a ton of work done outside this weekend. 

Over at 4 Crafty Chicks, we have a brand new challenge for you. I am your hostess this week and I would love for you to create something using Fairies!!! I still love watching Tinker Bell movies. Fairies are just so beautiful and some are so very cute.

My card above didn't turn out how I had it in my mind...it looked so much different as a CAS. Hope it looks okay. The stamp is one that I have had for many years in my stash from Inkadinkadoo for the fairy and the sentiments are also from Inkadinkadoo. Hope this card is not too disappointing. I used this image as it reminds me of some of the girls in the Tinkerbell movies.

Please come and join us at 4 Crafty Chicks, I would love to see your creations. My fellow DT's have amazing creations for you to see.

Have an amazing day and thanks for stopping by.

Kindness is Compassion

Hello! It has been one busy week but the highlight of it is we have our 4 month old grandson Emery visiting with us and his mom. Our second son had to work so look forward to seeing him this weekend together with his little family. Our oldest son is healing from breaking his pelvis and our daughter is getting used to grade 10 and balancing her sports. Many appointments have kept me busy this week too. So much to be grateful for family, friends and life.

Our beautiful hostess over at 4 Crafty Chicks this week is Nance and she has a wonderful challenge for us. It had me thinking outside of the box and how I could try and add several shapes to it. Nance challenge for #368 is Geometric. The card above was made using Gina Marie Designs die, the stitching and quality are just wonderful. Although with the pattern paper I used it is hard to see all of the stitching. The paper is all from Stampin' Up and the stamp which Summer picked out for me is from Hero Arts Clear Design.

I hope that you can stop by and join in our challenge this week. My fellow team mates from 4 Crafty Chicks (Nance, Leanne and Lori) have amazing inspiration for you.

Thanks for stopping by.



Enjoy Life's Journey

Good morning! It was a rainy day here in Wainwright yesterday and the cooler temperatures did feel nice but a shock after the higher temperatures. I actually had to put some socks on and the fireplace.

Today, at Creative Knockouts our sponsor is from Di's Digi Stamp. Our challenge is easy peasy, "ANYTHING GOES". The card above was inspired and everything was picked our by Summer. She is very talented and has a good eye for beautiful things. It was simply a joy to have her create with me. Our grandson Emery helped too with a little noise here and there. Thank you so much summer for helping me out. The most of the pattern paper is from My Mind's Eye Indie Chic "Citron", Stampin' Up the brown pattern paper and normal card stock. The stamp is from Impression Obsession Rubber Stamps and the leaves/flower are unknown.

Prize: $12 Voucher

We would love it if you joined us this week at Creative Knockouts for Challenge #211.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this card with me.
