Life seemed to get in the way and I simply did not have time. Now things have slowed down a bit and I hope to have more time to craft and participate in a few challenges along the way.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Lawn Fawn Mice<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6QLMy6gr_I3x2yaIOTbzsniyyZANNo3J6KQjPSWwIW4zMAcg8cvZeDlbBDusJFNflNF7w-hS2bf0B-IQx5dbGyYlSQ2SaegaOnlxuNGi9mwNau7whF4hzCid7BVfYGz7y_KSrkNPUrQ/s2015/mice.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2015" data-original-width="1504" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ6QLMy6gr_I3x2yaIOTbzsniyyZANNo3J6KQjPSWwIW4zMAcg8cvZeDlbBDusJFNflNF7w-hS2bf0B-IQx5dbGyYlSQ2SaegaOnlxuNGi9mwNau7whF4hzCid7BVfYGz7y_KSrkNPUrQ/s320/mice.jpg" /></a></div>I saw someone post a card very similar to this a few weeks ago. I just love the little mice blowing bubbles and playing in the field. This set is from Lawn Fawn and I intend to enter this card in the Lawn Fawn challenge (<a href="https://www.lawnfawnatics.com/inspiration/joyces-bubbles-of-joy-inspiration?fbclid=IwAR3Oy92mRKMmndt2OvzN1D3HGHsHFWz70bXBd8sA9iI-wJ_hFJ9nmflUPIc">Joyce’s Bubbles of Joy Inspiration! | Lawn Fawnatics</a>). I have so many Lawn Fawn sets I really need to use them more often. Somehow I keep seeing other sets I want. Winning the challenge would surely help feed my addition. <div><br /></div></div>cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970040245710718033.post-83636442062900468512019-01-19T07:32:00.000-08:002019-01-19T07:32:00.848-08:00Hearts<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I really this this sweet image from Bug a boo stamps. my glitter maker kinda smeared and made a slight mess but It will be ok. Not everything must be perfect. I followed the <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2019/01/sassy-stella-says-sketch-challenge-701.html">Stella sketch</a> for this card. These sketches make my card making so much easier. I also used a Valentine candy heart embossing folder I've had for along time. <a href="http://tuesdaythrowdown.blogspot.com/2019/01/tuesday-throwdown-423-drs-designs.html">Tuesday Throwdown</a> has an Embossing Challenge. <a href="http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.com/2019/01/challenge-382-anything-goes.html">Crafty Creations</a> has an Anything Goes challenge.<br />cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970040245710718033.post-36488930970716854012019-01-18T11:09:00.002-08:002019-01-18T11:09:25.413-08:00Cold Weather<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My picture does not do justice for this elegant snowflake.

I wanted to cut this train before Christmas and just never got around to it. Today I decided to go ahead and do it for my Grandson, Liam. He loves trains. He wont even care if its a Christmas Train or not. He has a special Mailbox that little cards and other trinkets sometimes get placed in side. I also noticed <a href="http://fabnfunkychallenges.blogspot.com/2019/01/423-for-child.html">Fab N Funky</a> has a For a Child Challenge. <a href="http://creativeknockouts.blogspot.com/2019/01/280-anything-goes-imagine-that-digistamp.html">Creative Knockouts</a> and <a href="http://cardztv.blogspot.com/2019/01/cardz-tv-anything-goes-challenge-80.html">CardsTv</a> both have Anything goes Challenges ending soon.<br />cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970040245710718033.post-50713455954097676332019-01-12T09:28:00.001-08:002019-01-12T09:28:28.351-08:00Flowered Heart<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today Im in a Clean and Simple mode. I'm making a few Valentine cards to take to the local nursing home. Just a little something to give to some of the patients who don't have a lot of visits from family. I used the Poppy Stamps curved heart border and the Cheap O Dies Heart to make this. <a href="http://diesruschallenge.blogspot.com/2019/01/challenge-112-anything-goes-using-dies.html"> Dies R Us</a> has an Anything Goes Challenge. Both of these dies were recent purchases that I hadn't had a chance to put to use. so I am also using them for the Something New Challenge at <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/?p=14749">Simon Says Monday</a><br />cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970040245710718033.post-7746185698603963862019-01-11T14:25:00.000-08:002019-01-11T14:25:15.846-08:00Warm WIshes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I can not believe it has been since August that I last posted. The last 6 months has purely escaped and I don't know where it went. So much going on and no time to slow down. Anyway today I made this card using the sketch from <a href="http://tuesdaymorningsketches.blogspot.com/2019/01/tuesday-morning-sketches-485.html">Tuesday Morning Sketches.</a> I used a <a href="http://www.inkypawschallenge.com/2018/12/inky-paws-challenge-88.html">Newton's Nook</a> image that I just think is too cute. I picked the image before I even looked at their current challenge but after looking at it I went with their color scheme.

It's been a really long time since I have been able to post a challenge. Today I found a few minutes so Of course I turned to one of my favorite sketch challenges for inspiration. I used<a href="http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/2018/08/week-525-with-star-stampz.html"> Sketch Saturday</a> but instead of an oval for my image I chose a rectangle. I think it will still work. Both<a href="http://cardztv.blogspot.com/2018/08/cardz-tv-anything-goes-challenge-59.html"> Cards TV</a> and <a href="http://www.josscrapshack.com/2018/08/ffc-245-always-anything-goes-with-paper.html">Jos' Scrap Shack</a> have Anything Goes Challenges. That's it for tonight but maybe I will be back soon with more challenges.<br />

Mother's Day is Sunday and I managed to get several of these made just in time. It seems I've really been running behind lately. I love this bright cheerful card and I hope all the mothers I sent one to will enjoy it as well. <br />

This little guy made me laugh when I saw him. I immediately knew he needed to be green and some other bright colors. The silvery looking colors are actually a metallic purple.

I really wasn't sure what to do for the clue word at <a href="http://casology./">CASOLOGY.</a> But then I saw this cute quote in the silhouette store and it seemed to fir perfectly. I will be sending this to my friend Myra who does exactly what the card suggests. <a href="http://craftygalscornerchallenges.blogspot.com/2018/03/challenge-162-anything-goes.html">Crafty Gals</a> and <a href="http://ttcrd.blogspot.co.uk/2018/04/ttcrd-anything-goes-challenge-3th-10th.html">Through the Craft Room Door</a> both have an Anything Goes challenge.cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970040245710718033.post-39833570389835011042018-04-04T14:22:00.001-07:002018-04-04T14:22:02.088-07:00Birds Soar<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm rally hating this shadow that keeps appearing in my pictures. I'm not sure where it is coming from but I am determined to lose it real soon. I made this card from a quote from William Blake. If you really think about what it says, one will figure out why it is so important . I used the sketch from <a href="http://casethissketch.blogspot.com/2018/03/case-this-sketch-265.html">Cas(e) this Sketch</a> because the sentiment is profound enough to not need anything added to this card. <a href="http://www.josscrapshack.com/2018/03/ffc-227-always-anything-goes-with-lbbs.html">Jo's Scrap Shack</a> has an Anything Goes challenge.

It has been quite a few days since I have been able to post anything. Life just seems to continuously get in the way of my play time. Tonight I took the time to finally make this quilt square card. I really like how these turn out. It does take some time to get all the small pieces in just the right place. <a href="http://brownsugarchallenge.blogspot.com/2018/03/276-spring-or-easter.html">Brown Sugar Challenges</a> has a Spring or Easter Challenge. I think these colors will work for either. <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-anything-goes-48/">Simon SaysWednesday</a> and<a href="http://cardztv.blogspot.com/2018/03/cardz-tv-anything-goes-challenge-40.html"> CardsTV</a> both have Anything Goes Challenges. <a href="http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.co.uk/2018/03/challenge-523-add-quote.html">Cute Card Thursday</a> has an Add a Quote challenge. I am sure you will be seeing more of these in the near future. cmgr117http://www.blogger.com/profile/15873865250319319134noreply@blogger.com0
