Congratulations

Happy Sunday my friends.  After heading to yoga with a girlfriend this morning, I've been enjoying a lazy day on the couch watching football. 

I was looking through the current challenges and found that this card I made for a wedding we went to last night worked really well for the current sketch over at CAS(e) this Sketch. Just need to flip the sketch!  This is one of my favorite challenges. Love an awesome CAS sketch!  

Hope you all are getting some crafty time as well and that your week gets off to a great start!

Time Out: Merry Christmas

Welcome back for another challenge at Time Out!  We have an amazing sponsor for this challenge:  Winnie & Walter.  I'm so lucky that I have met W&W's fabulous owner, Shea, twice and have been able to stamp right next to her twice. She is a gem and oh so generous!  She let us all purchase stamps for this challenge and I picked up the In the Word:  Merry stamps and coordinating dies.

I picked up on the theme of colourful using all different shades of pink for my card.  I made about 20 of these as I really need to get going on my Christmas cards.

We hope you are inspired to play along with us at Time Out!   And to win a fabulous prize from Winnie & Walter!

So Very Thankful

Happy Sunday my friends!  Popping in to share a card I made last week when I was at my crafty weekend.  To say I'm grateful for that time away would be a huge understatement.  I love my time away to meet new friends and connect with friends that I have already met. It certainly refreshes my soul to be there.  We laughed together, shared our hearts and created. It was so wonderful. I hope you all are getting in plenty of crafty time too.

Playing along in this week's Casology challenge - perfect for this card!

Thinking of You

Dropped Collin of at the homecoming dance, picked up a Diet Coke for myself and heading to my craft room for a bit before I head back out the door to pick him up at 11. I am normally not a night time crafter but have a lot of cards I need to make to send out quickly.  A dear friend has a sister who was just diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer and I wanted her to know I was thinking of her and sending lots of prayers to her. The CAS(e) this Sketch is always my go to and this was no exception.

And now I'm off to go get Collin!
