Monkey Business, and I chose Miki hanging from a tree with a present. Too cute.<br /><br />I colored him with my copics (and did not use any stickles) and I put it on some of the card stock out of my stash. I cut him out and used some of the letters from my stash. (Yes I am back to using my stash). I just think he is so cute. <br /><br />So swing on over to the SMC blog and join our challenge.

Dress up your cards, your projects, your pages. I used this adorable dress. I used some of the great paper that I got for my birthday called "The Black Current stack" and it is by DCWV. I Made the flower (I really made it) with my quilling set from Provo Craft, the lace is some that I have had in my stash forever, and the letters are also from my stash, I am not sure where they came from, but I do believe that they used to be called bubble letters. Hope you like it.<br /><br />Now off to the Blog N Doodle blog to see what all the DT have done (they are fabulous).racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-83139063268232784092011-01-14T06:33:00.001-08:002011-01-14T07:02:40.876-08:00SMC BIRTHDAY BLOG HOP<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHJeG9OTZ3SwJEnMY_m2LeUgLlyNzoTN1_9rLOcoVZSsJbuO00RrJpRymnX8jKBP43AO6xYiTYwQ3cgLh3EFwM8H5PsSA88Oj2_Xner8DWY73alHyEDLe_7F_quen6rDPMtMS0v8THuVk/s1600/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+003.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHJeG9OTZ3SwJEnMY_m2LeUgLlyNzoTN1_9rLOcoVZSsJbuO00RrJpRymnX8jKBP43AO6xYiTYwQ3cgLh3EFwM8H5PsSA88Oj2_Xner8DWY73alHyEDLe_7F_quen6rDPMtMS0v8THuVk/s320/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+003.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562051253484705170" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-DzwpmC-t9yOx3uwRMpR-u5N68TJkcsKZCvAqPyBZRyqSzr8DMAM0-IzF7lueXrWQDgSg2aiu6VQceNQg6Bw-ItyIqJaum0-8jQZtvysaR0UokcPjFZGquqh78y2tDlFwOTWwgREfXR4/s1600/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-DzwpmC-t9yOx3uwRMpR-u5N68TJkcsKZCvAqPyBZRyqSzr8DMAM0-IzF7lueXrWQDgSg2aiu6VQceNQg6Bw-ItyIqJaum0-8jQZtvysaR0UokcPjFZGquqh78y2tDlFwOTWwgREfXR4/s320/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562051254745135346" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiEg-kGaUlV5aPHTolLkiRy1DwkLhv3LDGXn4jfTufPvkyJX-ooKQPDXA3GQVD0_KVSxMzyOYIa8KEde7XhKMwuXCoLPiNcCcUWyACSNR0IFGxypN0BgQGkilSGnHnu3cXavdeT_l4zh4/s1600/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+001.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiEg-kGaUlV5aPHTolLkiRy1DwkLhv3LDGXn4jfTufPvkyJX-ooKQPDXA3GQVD0_KVSxMzyOYIa8KEde7XhKMwuXCoLPiNcCcUWyACSNR0IFGxypN0BgQGkilSGnHnu3cXavdeT_l4zh4/s320/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562051248921896562" /></a><br />WOW SMC is having a BIRTHDAY blog hop, and just in time for my birthday.<br /><br />I am so excited about this blog hop.<br /><br />If you got here from Wanda's blog then you are on the right track, if you just happened here, please go back to the start (The SMC challenge blog) because you don't want to miss even 1 of the great projects that the DT have done. Here is the order of the blog hop:<br /><br />Here's the order for the hop:<br /><br />start: Challenge Blog http://sewmanychallenges.com/<br /><br />darling Ho<br /><br />Kelly<br /><br />Wanda <br /><br />Laralee<br /><br />Mari http://trailsofpaper.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Karen<br /><br />Radwa<br /><br />Stacy<br /><br />Annie<br /><br />Deanette<br /><br />Linda<br /><br />Audrey<br /><br /><br />end: Store Blog (Freebie will be here until midnight on Friday)<br /><br />I used the cupcake carasel for my project, and once again I did a scrapbook page. This one was a blast to do. I made a second page so that I could take the cherry on top of the big image and the 3 small cupcakes and POP them out with pop dots. I colored them with my copics and a "few" little stickles. The background paper is from my "stash" and I am not sure where I got it from but it sure did work.<br /><br />I then did the "freebie" and is that not the cutest image you have seen, well not really because I LOVE all of the images on SMC. Be sure to stop by the blog and get this great freebie.<br /><br />Now off to see Mari's blog. If you get lost or if I screwed up and did not get the link right, just go back to the start.<br /><br />Be sure to leave a comment on this post for a chance at winning the cupcake image (be sure to do this on all of the DT blogs for the same chance).<br /><br />Have a great blog hop and great weekend.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-7744642805432121452011-01-13T18:12:00.001-08:002011-01-13T18:17:15.356-08:00Jan. 13th challenge at Stamp n Doodle<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYfVyrDRMvRpCkOVtUsOT-VyVvlW-3DU8Z7qJEBrqTVwAHxrVNeSOBWWwluaptxP5q8tYDfvQyzKDrd4HTxfW3XdybmJEvpZyrHjmhaiXyiOCOdQ0cd0882mr4H7W7ZCp1_PpM-ZblnAY/s1600/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+005.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYfVyrDRMvRpCkOVtUsOT-VyVvlW-3DU8Z7qJEBrqTVwAHxrVNeSOBWWwluaptxP5q8tYDfvQyzKDrd4HTxfW3XdybmJEvpZyrHjmhaiXyiOCOdQ0cd0882mr4H7W7ZCp1_PpM-ZblnAY/s320/smc%252Csmc%252Csmc%252Caif%252Csnd%252Caif+005.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5561859804206905538" /></a><br />Well here it is, the BIG day, and no I don't mean my birthday, however it is, but it is time for another Stamp n Doodle challenge.<br /><br />This one is pretty cool.....I do love the picture, and as I have told you I am into trying to get my scrapbooks done, sooooooooo I made this one for some of our camping pics.<br /><br />I really wanted this one to be pretty much black and white.

I used some new paper that I got (on sale) at JoAnn's this week, and I love this paper. I colored them with my copics and found some yarn in my stash to put around the picture. I just love the way it turned out.<br /><br />Then I took the "sleepover" images and decided to make bookmarks for the girls. I also colored them with the copics and used some stickles too. I also laminated them with my "Your story" and I am so excited how they turned out.....I hope the girls like them as much as I do.<br /><br />Be sure to stop by AiF store and take a look at all of the images that are in the store, they are fabulous......and don't forget to enter the challenge, it is ANYTHING GOES.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-74087625011636413422011-01-06T07:17:00.000-08:002011-01-06T07:25:03.346-08:00New Year and new post for Stamp and Doodle<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO1TL8pupoTEhyphenhyphen_p_-Eg9g8hTDHZUL1QurhJ1WSSMYNJ0Nt1C9cWM0mZnI6mwEh8Pe_YnBdj9Hqs6iALXYlkchs2GA_r5Attcu946lcy9Bce_4ocVE5YPNdruf_JlOrvICR2E4oKrvWXc/s1600/snd++++++smc+002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO1TL8pupoTEhyphenhyphen_p_-Eg9g8hTDHZUL1QurhJ1WSSMYNJ0Nt1C9cWM0mZnI6mwEh8Pe_YnBdj9Hqs6iALXYlkchs2GA_r5Attcu946lcy9Bce_4ocVE5YPNdruf_JlOrvICR2E4oKrvWXc/s320/snd++++++smc+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559093369303856674" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd5ARaPZw_D4Tro5oQtbjj4AR0leQa3KEswg1zL0YJ0VQ8nCdnUZzn6E1UK2nKqvK09FNowQctyZlmxMNoRilaD8xWnG7I88gfLcINXfmbbE5S3-mTZq5fBO1czNuQPWWdIuz3MvserHc/s1600/snd++++++smc+001.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd5ARaPZw_D4Tro5oQtbjj4AR0leQa3KEswg1zL0YJ0VQ8nCdnUZzn6E1UK2nKqvK09FNowQctyZlmxMNoRilaD8xWnG7I88gfLcINXfmbbE5S3-mTZq5fBO1czNuQPWWdIuz3MvserHc/s320/snd++++++smc+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559093371634042914" /></a><br />WOW it has been a while since I posted and I am so sorry.<br /><br />This chest crap that I had and my diabetes just put me right down in bed.....now I gave it to my hubby, ugh.<br /><br />I am feeling MUCH better and ready for the new year.<br /><br />This week we are doing "resolutions" at Stamp and Doodle and I LOVE this image.

I really don't understand how they have so much time, and Mia, wow, she has been doing the "overtime" thing.<br /><br />Make sure that you join the challenge and have a GREAT Holiday season.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-20780250405942496162010-12-11T09:31:00.000-08:002010-12-11T09:36:06.965-08:00NEW SMC challenge---FLOWERS<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUGTi_uWc1Fjm3brSb3N7fDbU3U-_2RMDiIEievraB3Sr5avU8DPW9lMPzmtZLZM7PpnfF4ypmIKeWQLfzxbjPkrOPgCnVOQIo-PvI_yP0CSteU8-Wa1Qu-4P9kJvp6FsptkFPYghjOng/s1600/SMC+take+2+001.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUGTi_uWc1Fjm3brSb3N7fDbU3U-_2RMDiIEievraB3Sr5avU8DPW9lMPzmtZLZM7PpnfF4ypmIKeWQLfzxbjPkrOPgCnVOQIo-PvI_yP0CSteU8-Wa1Qu-4P9kJvp6FsptkFPYghjOng/s320/SMC+take+2+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549479420244687746" /></a><br /><br />I really think that I need this one, I am so sick of snow already. Thank goodness it has been a little bit warm the last 2 days (besides it rained and rained and rained) and we have almost all of the snow gone. The sad thing is, it is not even officially winter so I know without a doubt there is gonna be more, UGH.<br /><br />Anyway over on the SMC challenge blog our challenge is flowers.<br /><br />I colored mine with my copics and stickles. I used flowers from my stash. I know it was not very inventive, but my MOJO left, and still has not returned.<br /><br />BTW if anyone finds my mojo, send it back to me PLEASE.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-33286720047452324682010-12-10T06:43:00.000-08:002010-12-10T06:50:53.690-08:00Stamp n Doodle--Make a gift bag or box<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQYxh45w-fr3jjSvOMdFl-xyIjQso6OK_zMu_wOtATSw7fxMGP6_UNlZhicUV-HvCTKmhsC6GIw2WnYgmV2tLiNpHF-Q_b0Je1e8tTlaBpt5keRZN6hFzC9Ow3avv-NnS3VNvceCMKxNU/s1600/AiF%252C+SND+002.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQYxh45w-fr3jjSvOMdFl-xyIjQso6OK_zMu_wOtATSw7fxMGP6_UNlZhicUV-HvCTKmhsC6GIw2WnYgmV2tLiNpHF-Q_b0Je1e8tTlaBpt5keRZN6hFzC9Ow3avv-NnS3VNvceCMKxNU/s320/AiF%252C+SND+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549065262252828194" /></a><br />Well here we are, almost at the middle of December already......and I feel like I still have so much to do.<br /><br />Well our challenge this week at Stamp n Doodle was to make a gift bag or box. I used this great elf shoe template to make a small gift box, but didn't get the time to make the candy to go into it. (I know......bad toad) Hey today is shopping day to get all of the ingredients for the cookies and candy.<br /><br />I cut this shoe out of cardstock, found a great snowman, sleight and snowflakes to decorate it. I am sure that I should have done more, but as I said, the MOJO has done gone and left me here in snowy/rainy/windy WA state.<br /><br />Be sure to stop by the blog and see what the DT have done, and enter your box or bag.<br /><br />Happy Holidays everyoneracinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-90794311684982112122010-12-09T07:10:00.000-08:002010-12-09T07:32:56.248-08:00AiFactory challenge-------holiday/Christmas<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvZB0jgyB563omfoBhb0ZF_vi1riUq_UrvMqF89WRMYUq6F6J5KAKp6uEqAmP0vFmjCi0ztSH2YRf6SxTrd95jLpzvkiWMrcxgsMCqNPBbJ_p0BT6x14qWmFvvkfr6HCcDxNp1PzQnsec/s1600/AiF%252C+SND+001.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvZB0jgyB563omfoBhb0ZF_vi1riUq_UrvMqF89WRMYUq6F6J5KAKp6uEqAmP0vFmjCi0ztSH2YRf6SxTrd95jLpzvkiWMrcxgsMCqNPBbJ_p0BT6x14qWmFvvkfr6HCcDxNp1PzQnsec/s320/AiF%252C+SND+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548701820861550930" /></a><br />Wow here we are and we are just about 2 weeks from Christmas EEEEEEEEEEEECK!<br /><br />It is not that I don;t have 99% of the shopping done, and the presents wrapped, but I still need to make the candy and cookies, send off my sisters presents, and we are still decorating the house.........wow I do still have a lot to do.<br /><br />Anyway, back to AiFactory challenge. I used the 2 snowbirds (as I call them) colored with my copics and a dash of stickles. The card is made with my Martha Stewart paper (LOVE it) and I used some very old items from my stash. I even did something that I have NEVER done, and used rub-ons......for the 2 sayings. I have to admit that I was a little intimidated by rub-ons. but they are not bad at all.<br /><br />The ornament is a shaker box (which I have never used before) and I just love it.<br /><br />Be sure to stop by the challenge blog and enter your card, tag, etc. for this week.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-38498270351485312202010-12-01T09:51:00.000-08:002010-12-05T07:11:21.632-08:00Weekly SMC challenge SNOWFLAKES<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRV0TTCTcrXxeIBgEwK-hvG5boswvIaUqk2C0oKXyx1toBSAXEgnQYKqJ-BRjsE6VUCLjX1kVhLn0uyIZxayA7G4nZNixgvZGr3OX9Kv7AmjNPJEIjAzEwWMuAyQ82aE6nLQsO5rkzj-s/s1600/SMC+12-2010+002.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRV0TTCTcrXxeIBgEwK-hvG5boswvIaUqk2C0oKXyx1toBSAXEgnQYKqJ-BRjsE6VUCLjX1kVhLn0uyIZxayA7G4nZNixgvZGr3OX9Kv7AmjNPJEIjAzEwWMuAyQ82aE6nLQsO5rkzj-s/s320/SMC+12-2010+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545773945138025794" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZdeqoEL4H7hgPbVN2jxQlSeaCDR89efNIW5PUsg-RZZeSjjZgN7WYPgIQ-hZnngXlF33rAWgLvZ6JWEtgDrNOWRvuCIgqO-WW6XNathHIWBFZJbm4-jSBVZvLHjGz-YmiR0r1gv78Ew4/s1600/SMC+12-2010+001.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZdeqoEL4H7hgPbVN2jxQlSeaCDR89efNIW5PUsg-RZZeSjjZgN7WYPgIQ-hZnngXlF33rAWgLvZ6JWEtgDrNOWRvuCIgqO-WW6XNathHIWBFZJbm4-jSBVZvLHjGz-YmiR0r1gv78Ew4/s320/SMC+12-2010+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545773942149369506" /></a><br /><br /><br />Well here is my card for the SMC weekly challenge SNOWFLAKES!!!!!!!<br /><br />Wow isn't that perfect for me with all of the dang snow we have had, and more is being predicted.<br /><br />I used Morty Moose for this challenge and the great Martha Stewart paper that I bought with the snowflakes.<br /><br />I colored him with my copics and of course I HAD to use some stickles.

Can you believe that Thanksgiving is next week.<br /><br />I have been so busy this week. We moved a good friend of mine over to the Seattle area, made 4 pies, trying to finish the afagans that I am doing for Christmas, painting my sisters Christmas presents, and started my nativity scene. Tonight we are helping some friends decorate for their dtr's wedding that is tomorrow, then I need to come home and do the dishes that I need to have done for the reception, and finally I REALLY need to get the scrapbook done that I am doing for them. Whew, I really need to get this post done and get going.<br /><br />OK now down to the challenge, the first picture is the inside of the card and definately has bling, the second picture is the front and I just LOVE them both and had a ball doing them. As usual, the images were colored with my copics, and then the bling was added with stickles. The paper is from the Martha Stewart paper that I bought and this collection of papers are just super.<br /><br />Make sure you stop by the blog and see what all of the other DT members have done.<br /><br />Have a good week and a great Thanksgiving.<br /><br />This card has been entered in the following challenges:<br />http://papercutzchallenge.blogspot.com/ Christmas<br />http://totallypapercrafts.blogspot.com/ snow/snowflakes<br />http://meljensdesignsdt.blogspot.com/2010/11/challenge-34-and-new-release.html<br />http://paperplaychallenges.blogspot.com/ glitter<br />http://delightfulsketches.blogspot.com/ glitter it up<br />http://magicalmondaychallenge.blogspot.com/ Let it snowracinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-85174775737761893962010-11-19T09:13:00.002-08:002010-11-20T20:46:00.282-08:00Here we are at the end of another week......<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha_AMIdzFySebd0OHX7sF1FzghSWbh6kZlojBVGPD0JfZrxiD0venG_n0GNU1f-mTNwTKlATbSrr8T3M_vmYQr7ljyo8yZGaPJZekYBJqKEQMndEcTAREWHJBV9uy7nJlPUcOmpggs5nY/s1600/rock%252Crock%252Cbloghop%252Cmail%252Cturkeyno.turkey+005.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEha_AMIdzFySebd0OHX7sF1FzghSWbh6kZlojBVGPD0JfZrxiD0venG_n0GNU1f-mTNwTKlATbSrr8T3M_vmYQr7ljyo8yZGaPJZekYBJqKEQMndEcTAREWHJBV9uy7nJlPUcOmpggs5nY/s320/rock%252Crock%252Cbloghop%252Cmail%252Cturkeyno.turkey+005.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5541310735099575634" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdNsFQorjUxYilKbCARB4HOphL70zuD_4yRk4d6vUXVvI0fxgirOsEfUVFoLzJX0b_MRe0PGWQP8vVu9eYCOgD9DPT6hj6ekj4Dgv6JADAiTwKw17XRH-1HY0OsZ3cs_s5k1Yxs_gUnCI/s1600/bh%252Cbh%252Cturkey+003.JP_"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdNsFQorjUxYilKbCARB4HOphL70zuD_4yRk4d6vUXVvI0fxgirOsEfUVFoLzJX0b_MRe0PGWQP8vVu9eYCOgD9DPT6hj6ekj4Dgv6JADAiTwKw17XRH-1HY0OsZ3cs_s5k1Yxs_gUnCI/s320/bh%252Cbh%252Cturkey+003.JP_" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5541310732425716418" /></a><br /><br />Well next week is turkey day and so we are at the end of another week, but the start of another challenge over at SMC.<br /><br />This weeks challenge is turkey and punches. I love this turkey and had a ball coloring this image, then I found some of my punches from CM and saw this one that does both kinds of leaves, what better to embellish than autumn leaves. I did use some pop-dots to make some of the leaves pop out. I colored the image with my copics, did a little bit of bling and then just used the great leaves. The back ground paper is out of my "stash" and it is old enough that there is nothing on the papers to say who made them.<br /><br />Hope you enjoy this challenge.

I am going to have a LONG weekend ahead of me. I am driving a U-Haul to Tacoma this weekend to move a good friend of mine. Normally Larry would drive it, but he has EMR training tomorrow and so he cannot leave until late in the afternoon, so he will follow and then he and I will drive back on Sunday.<br /><br />Anyhoooooo Our challenge this week at SMC is blue and white. I love this image and thought that he would be soooooo cute in blue, and I was right he turned out great. This image, as well as all of Angela's other great images are for sale in the store right now.......and if you hurry, there is a discount for the Christmas images if you use the discount "november2010." I colored the image with my copics and just used some of my stash of paper. <br /><br />Be sure to come back next week as we are having a BLOG HOP and there are GREAT prizes to be had.<br /><br />Have a great weekend, and I am sure I will be posting at least 1 more thing before I leave.<br /><br />I have used Morty and the tree in the following challenges:racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-91930670434237152392010-11-11T14:34:00.000-08:002010-11-11T14:40:45.889-08:00Stamp n Doodle WHITE challenge<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPntdP5sjhRL2AyXRcn8H70R76qJ3_gjgu70ltLGfmpfzaOKMIHc2sysIFlHeAgOPISoX7IpyO6koKG5K7t75DpbQgpZqsPkxlawR583B-ZRxi7FXHXA8chwcZlrmGoxBihrPnvw09kMs/s1600/turkey%252Cangels%252CAiF+002.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPntdP5sjhRL2AyXRcn8H70R76qJ3_gjgu70ltLGfmpfzaOKMIHc2sysIFlHeAgOPISoX7IpyO6koKG5K7t75DpbQgpZqsPkxlawR583B-ZRxi7FXHXA8chwcZlrmGoxBihrPnvw09kMs/s320/turkey%252Cangels%252CAiF+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538425763138325810" /></a><br /><br /><br />Here is the card I did for the Stamp n Doodle "white" challenge.

Those birds and the tree limb and swirls are just wonderful. I colored the image with my copics (I know, what a shock) and it really needed some bling so I highlighted it with some stickles and the saying I got from TLC and I just thought it fit so well.<br /><br />Hope you like it and come back soon for some more cards.racinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-7125500394409695822010-11-08T08:53:00.000-08:002010-11-08T14:52:09.933-08:00Cutest dang Christmas card<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj3QYtzmD9If_z_Vz-seuYqkWIAntCBAdivd1pRs9spNpmq3Te3CuQXwWHcrvOkSopekZyuO0LaxQFlRLANvGbNuEcT7o8VXxxSkFiLrQas1eCwzXL23jD136HFuPcLTahkgxXg1ytITU/s1600/Aif,+flamingo,SMC+002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj3QYtzmD9If_z_Vz-seuYqkWIAntCBAdivd1pRs9spNpmq3Te3CuQXwWHcrvOkSopekZyuO0LaxQFlRLANvGbNuEcT7o8VXxxSkFiLrQas1eCwzXL23jD136HFuPcLTahkgxXg1ytITU/s320/Aif,+flamingo,SMC+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537223643101281538" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheG3hSQjpR16zWP-nxxakdBRmUHH1-F52TcxAfC6whcFK7O73mTBCDXZ-O1NE57KFw8BiUFjd0TOIzx6umXe-R0hsrvOld5SVO4s_ywN63S7Li7m16zMsBk7Nnri8r8WS9RIeU6R8kq1c/s1600/Aif,+flamingo,SMC+001.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheG3hSQjpR16zWP-nxxakdBRmUHH1-F52TcxAfC6whcFK7O73mTBCDXZ-O1NE57KFw8BiUFjd0TOIzx6umXe-R0hsrvOld5SVO4s_ywN63S7Li7m16zMsBk7Nnri8r8WS9RIeU6R8kq1c/s320/Aif,+flamingo,SMC+001.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537223632668280498" /></a><br /><br /><br />I have been working on this flamingo for a couple of weeks.

Angela has some of the cutest images. Well this is the first week and ding dong me didn't realize it until this morning when I got online. So I whipped up this card and isn't he just adorable. Just wait until you see what other we have in store for you this month.<br /><br />So I colored this adorable tiger with my copics, of course, and then I decided to do something a little new to me and made a gate fold card. This great paper is from BoBunny, and yes I splurged and bought a couple of pieces of new paper.....I know, shame on me, but it has been a really long time tince I bought any paper and I just loved these colors. Now the orange/yellow paper that he is on is from my stash and so is that great flower.<br /><br />Hope you like it and be sure to check back on Friday fro another new image and stop by the Sew Many Cards store and get 35% off all christmas images.....what a buy.<br /><br />Now I have entered this card in the following challenges:<br />http://www.sewmanychallenges.com/ fall<br />http://www.catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/ anything goes ( and BTW Bugaboo is have a design team call.....big shout out to Jodie)<br />http://sentimentalsundays.blogspot.com/ sketch<br />http://stamptacularsundaychallenge.blogspot.com/ DT inspiration (Dee was mine and that was for the colors and trying a new card fold and seeing how I ALWAYS use the traditional, I did try something different and I like it)<br />http://crazy4challenges.blogspot.com/ create a square card<br />http://incywincydesigns.blogspot.com/ anything goesracinggrandma61http://www.blogger.com/profile/13064715298850739030noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751080541870559772.post-85833901257857175902010-11-03T16:44:00.000-07:002010-11-04T07:01:24.453-07:00Another Stamp N Doodle challenge<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6X6iIOxtNKAFlZ6cppmcOkzGyjFxmG4xKbJlLlH6lUlW83KH02gAwMR5BAOKqhNd3DUXFVba-_xhGugYNXcLj8Jg2K3SEzF9ngpiQqwcLtXlgDN5It4jRkTliNle_WM3EPCpOzSEKEhk/s1600/002.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6X6iIOxtNKAFlZ6cppmcOkzGyjFxmG4xKbJlLlH6lUlW83KH02gAwMR5BAOKqhNd3DUXFVba-_xhGugYNXcLj8Jg2K3SEzF9ngpiQqwcLtXlgDN5It4jRkTliNle_WM3EPCpOzSEKEhk/s320/002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535473778922940882" /></a><br /><br />OK here we are, Thursday and time for another Stamp N Doodle challenge.
