Happy Birthday Izzy

I am trying to fill in the gaps and complete a scrapbook for each of my granddaughters that I could send them at Christmas this year. This is Izzy's 8th birthday which was actually just about 6 weeks ago. I used this fun sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap:

Week 32

I really thought I would have more time to get caught up on my projects since I am retired but I have made some new friends, we have a new puppy and I am having a very good time. But little by little I should be able to catch up on my 52 Favorites. This is week 32 which was my birthday week. I used this sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap:

That is it for now....back to cuddling my puppy on the couch and watching football.

HB2U Dan

I just love this image of the doggie in the party hat holding a bone. It was perfect to use for this card for my niece's husband, Dan's birthday card. How fun! The image and sentiment are from Your Next Stamp and I am entering this card in their Fun Friday Challenge #123--Just For Fun

I used this sketch #154 from Sketch-N-Scrap:

I am also entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Stitch It Challenge.

That is it for now....thank you for stopping by my blog.

Week 31 Stick It Down Single Page Sketch

I was able to adapt another sketch to fit in my Traveler's Notebook. This week I was documenting my mother-in-law's 76th birthday. Doesn't she look great? I used this single page sketch from Stick It Down and am entering it in their September Sketch Challenge.

That's it for now....tomorrow is hump day and halfway through the work week. I hope your week is going well.

Week 30

I love adapting sketches to fit in my Traveler's Notebook. This sketch from Rochelle Spears worked perfectly to document week 30...the week I first attended my crafty ladies gathering since retiring.

Instead of 2 photos, I added a photo and a journaling box.but otherwise I stayed pretty true to the sketch. I also used the colors from the photo inspiration this month from Scrap With Stacy.

Happy Anniversary Aaron and Cheri

I am enjoying building up my stash of cards and I know I have an anniversary coming up in November for my brother and sister-in-law. When I saw this sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap, I knew it would be perfect. The papers, banners and rose gold heart are all from PinkFresh Studios.

Well back to watching football and my hubby just dished me up a bowl of his delicious chili. I love fall....don't you?

Trick or Treat

I have started on my Halloween projects....this is my first card with an adorable Newton's Nook stamp set that I got last year and have not inked up until now. I am entering their

Inky Paws Challenge #106 Halloween Theme

I used this sketch from Sketch-n-Scraps Monthly Challenges on FB. The optional twist was to use scallops (which I did)

Thanks for stopping by my blog....it is Friday night and my favorite time of the week. I have 2 full days to spend with my husband. I retired in June but he still is working a few more years so I cherish our time together on the weekends.
