Being Witchy....

Obviously, I have been digging out my old Halloween stamps and here is another! I love this old gal! Again, I have used my favorite watercolor pencils to color her...ain't she purty?
I made this card for the Sketch Challenge at Stamping 411. As I looked around, I found a few others she qualifies for as well, so will enter her into these too:

Corrosive - Halloween
Paper Playtime - Halloween
Totally Stampalicious - Purple, Green and Black
Dutch Dare - Halloween

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

Yellow Zebra Wedding...

It has been an EVENTFUL weekend here in NW Arkansas! Saturday I got to go down to The University Of The Ozarks for Family Fiesta Weekend with my wonderful daughter! The weather was perfect, and the visit was just what Momma needed to see her baby girl in her element! Shelli LOVES it there, and I can see why. I feel MUCH better now that I have had a wonderful visit and tour of the school, as well as all the fun activities that the students and faculty worked so hard on to entertain their families! KUDOS Uof O~~
Last evening, I attended the wedding of one of my dear friend's sons'. It was so simply beautiful....
Their colors were Black, White and Yellow...thus the card! I took the colors from her invitation which was yellow with a border of black and white Zebra print and black lettering.
Very Cool! Her flowers were daisies and the wedding was held outdoors in a magnificent Ozark Mountains location. I wrapped her gift in the same color combo as you can see....it really did look neat on the gift table.
The Wedding as I said was very pretty, and the reception afterwards was a riot....so much fun...UNTIL! We were dancing and having a fabby time, and clutsy Julie fell wrong on my right foot and got a BIG BOO BOO! I have torn my Achilles Tendon and also broken some of the bone on my heel along with it! Yeah, isn't that special? The Emergency Room doctor has referred me to an Orthopedic Surgeon, and I see him tomorrow. I will have to have it surgically repaired, and it will be 3 to 6 months before I am back on it. ARRGHHHH! So....I will have TONS of time to make my Christmas cards this year....heck of a way to get those done, eh? LOL
Anyway, thank you all for stopping by today! I hope you all have a WONDERFUL week....

World Cardmaking Day

Well, it is a beautiful day here in NW Arkansas, and I actually got to participate in World Cardmaking Day! I have been slowly...emphesis on SLOW...making my Christmas cards, so I dont't have to cram them all in in the last week! This is one I have done with my new Dasher stamp from SU. I LOVE non-traditional colored Christmas cards, so needless to say, I love this one.
After finishing, I realized this card fits a few of weekly challenges out there. Here they are:
Charisma - Christmas
Paper Pretties - Animal/ Animal Print
DCD Christmas Club - Glitter, Ribbon, and Gems

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a Blessed Sunday!
