Made my own dp!!

      Well I only had to sit at the courthouse for 3 hours. Didn't get picked at all for jury duty!  I was kind of looking forward to it..  Oh well, maybe in 4 more years???
    My Mom is still pretty sore for her accident yesterday, she is just lucky that nothing more serious happened, just sore muscles.....
     Today I have to ride the bus to work!! We are having a new parking ramp built, so if you don't have at least 25-30 years seniority, you have to park elsewhere and take the bus!! I've only got 11 years under my belt... It's only about a 5 minute ride, but the hassle of getting to the parking lot, walking to the bus stop then from the bus stop to work, and then again after work!!    OMG, I'm going to get exercise now!!! ha ha.... I just hope I get the times right, so I don't miss it!!

             Friday's challenge at Gina K's  was a "Free For All- Make Your Own Designer Paper."
I stamped the Gina K Pure Luxury with "Branching out" in Almost Amethyst for the dp and  Elegant Eggplant for the framed sentiment. The sentiment itself is from  the Gina K "Friends are Forever"set. I cut out the frames using my Cuttlebug and an Oval Nesties.
I did some piercing around the frame. lastly I added some Primas.
 Here is a close-up of the dp.
I like how it turned out.  How about you??
Come back and visit on Wednesday, it will be the Design Diva's Oldies But Goodies Blog Hop.  It will be a lot of fun!!!

                               Well, it's that time of the month again!!                The Design DIVAS Oldies But Goodies Blog Hop, that is!!   Our blog hop showcases cards made with items that we’ve had “stashed”.  An  “oldie but, goodie”  that we’ve pulled out and blown the dust off of to create something with it.      This card was actually made more than 6 months ago, so it is definitely an OBG!!!  Sorry, the picture isn't the greatest!!    The stamps are all  SU: Both Way Blossoms, Love ya Bunches and Itty Bitty Backgrounds. The Card stock is  from Papertrey,Aqua Mist,  which ws put through the Cuttlebug (Swiss Dots), SU Shimmery White and the dp is SU Everyday Blessings. It is colored with Prismacolor pencils .I used brads, ticket corner punch, SU Circle punch, Papertrey Ribbon and Stickles.             This is one of my favorite cards!!!!      Well, I hope you enjoyed your visit.   Now it is time to visit  Mary at Mary's Impressions.     You

Hello Kitty-- See my new "do"!!!

Image
Thursday will be the last day for our PM Secretary, Ann, in the ER where I work. She is retiring after 35 years!! She is a Hello Kitty FANATIC !!! I found this free digi download at http://www.hellokitty.com/ . It was actually a whole coloring page, but I just used the main image. I found a bunch of Hello Kitty stuff at Target in the $1 isle, including this bag. I filled it with the goodies, plus a Halloween jar filled with her favorite, Candy Corn. I found a cute little Hello Kitty stuffed toy too! I colored the image with Prismacolor markers, and used my new Crop-A-Dile to attach an eyelet to the inside so that I could hang the Hello Kitty Ribbon. She does not know it, but there was a collection taken up and we got enough money to send her to New Zealand for 5 weeks in Nov-Dec to see her daughter and 3 grandchildren. Her daughter has lived there for 11 years, and she has not even seen the 2 youngest kids yet!! I'm sure she will be very surprised!!! Well, I wen
