Feeling thankful

Hello blogland and happy Monday! I am SOOOOOO thankful it's Monday... But mostly because this will be a short work week and Thanksgiving is right around the corner! :) This week's challenge at Craft Your Passion is "Thankful" and I am thankful that we had the chance to play with images from The Sugar Kissed Cottage! :)

I will be submitting this lil lady to the following challenges:

2 Sisters (Thank You)

Color Me Creative (Anything Goes)

Crazy 4 Challenges (Thank You)

And Thank YOU for stopping by today! :) 

Ready for the Holidays???

If not, check out our upcoming blog hop to get into the mood!! :)

Rockin' Owl

Hey there bloggers and happy almost Thanksgiving! :) I cannot believe we are a week away from Thanksgiving... I can't lie and act like I'm NOT thankful that we are close to the holidays... this year has been a LONG one... On so many levels... but then again, poof, here we are preparing for the holidays before the close of the year! :) CA-RA-ZY!!

This week's challenge at Craft Your Passion (Buttons Galore) is being sponsored by QKR, and I had the chance to play with this rockin' owl...

With the end of the year coming so close, I realized that THIS is my first card of a requisite fifty for this year's graduating class... I love making my seniors a personalized farewell but by now I'm usually rolling with cards already. They aren't due until the end of March but still, I'm kind of behind so I guess Christmas cards are off the table because I have got to get rolling on congrats notes!! :)

I will be submitting this card to Cards Galore's "Animals" challenge. Have a great day! :)

It's beginning to look a lot like... CHRISTMAS!!! :)

And I can't say I'm not excited!! :) I am SOOOOO not a Halloween person... I seriously have issues, I know. BUT I am totally a Christmassy person cause it's cold outside and warm inside and we celebrate Christ's birth ALL season long AND we give presents... I mean, come on, what's NOT to love!! :)

SOOOOO, I have to really get on the ball with my Christmas cards too. :) I am not pressuring myself this year cause frankly, I don't think anyone else out there really cares if they get a handmade card from me or not! :) BUT I do want to make a few special ones for close friends and family...

This week, Sassy Studio Designs is hosting the "Mrs. Claus" challenge at Time 4 Scrap, so I was able to jump start some of that Christmas card making with this lil lady:

I inked Snowman Sassy up in honor of Mrs. Claus using my copics (of course) and added a little gel pen glitter to her scarf (cause the red on red didn't QUITE work)... Then I whipped out some OOOOLLLLLDDDD Christmas papers (October Afternoon, I THINK)... And one, two, three, whipped up a lil card to throw into the ring. :) Santa only wishes Mrs. Claus could look so good... And so does my hubby lol! :)

Anywhoo, I'll be submitting this lil lady to the following challenges: Aud Sentiments (Christmas sentiment), A Gem of a Challenge (Christmas is Coming), Allsorts (Christmas Cheer), and Crafty Calendar (All things Christmas). Thanks for swinging by and have a WARM day! :)

November Sketch!

Hey bloggers and happy November to ya! ;) This month, Scrap-A-Doodle Doo is hosting a beautiful sketch challenge and I am SOOOO grateful for these challenges because it seems that the only time I am able to actually scrapbook these days is when I have a project for my favorite LSS!!

This sketch was found on Pinterest

And THIS is my interpretation of it...

Love those kids... :) 

I'll be submitting this one to Craftitude (Twine) and Crafty Hands (Anything Goes). Thanks for swinging by!!

Soooo thankful!

IT'S FRIDAY!!!! :) Thank GOD!! And I can't believe it, but it's NOVEMBER already!! How time flies... hee hee, apropos for my card today actually... :)

The challenge at Card Makin' Mamas this month is "Thankful" and I am thankful that I was able to FINALLY play with my SOG images again... I truly love the lil Mae as Alice... Her bunny is so cute!! :) 

I used the sketch from Everybody Art Challenge and I played with lots of kraft paper based on this week's Just Inspirational Challenge. Soooo, THANK YOU for swinging by today and have a wonderful weekend!!
