Kristi's Birthday Challenge

Ya know sometime tonight I decided that I decided I needed to make a card for myself. Weird right? I know but I don't feel so hot and really I would love to just be at the ocean celebrating someone's birthday, You're birthday today? Let's make it yours...just let me smell the salty air and be at that shore! Somewhere warm would be good too! So here is my card and please let me make it clear, hint hint that Kristi would love to have you come over and enter her challenge too!

"Sprinkles"


...And oh, check out hers, pretty huh?

Here is her blog address which describes how she would like to see some ribbons on layouts and her example too!



Here is mine that I entered:

Celina's Birthday Challenge~Banners!

Banners are so hot right now! Celina has a challenge for us and this is her blog spot to read further:
http://celinascraps.blogspot.com/ Here is the lo she made for it too :)


This is my take on it:

Birthdays and Red Hats?

How is everyone doing with their challenges for our online crop? The month of January has just slipped right past us and now here it is almost February. Don't miss your chance to enter some of the Groovy Chick challenges because they have prizes to give away ;) Anna has a challenge for us to create a layout by showing pics with lots of people so as an example here is mine.



It's a 2 pager, I just cannot stitch it together :( but it is my youngest daughter's first birthday as we celebrated in Meadows of Dan, VA with lots of people...we just did not know any of them, lol! It was fun! The Red Hat Girls were there and a band...during the day! Those mountain folk know how to spend a word day and the pizza was yummy too! P.S. Today is my daddy's 74th birthday and he hails from Galax, right down the road from this place. Any other Blue Ridge friends out there?

Head on over to see Anna here and enter her challenge which ends January 30:

Last Night's Simon Says Game

What a blast that was! If you missed it be sure to be ready to jump in next time I personally had so much fun and was so amazed at how different the layouts each turned out after using my 12 step program to the players. Here is mine to give you an idea of what it was like to play without a plan:


















and because I LOVE to send RAK's out to other scrappy chicks here is the layout and name of the winner from last night:

Celebrate, Celebrate with our Card Team

As we start getting ready for our Birthday Bash on January 4th we think birthday cards. The Card team chose "bling" as a theme to design their cards. Let's see what they have come up with. Interesting how Jen T and Niki_Ray both chose "celebrate" as their title word and that Peg and Nicole both chose the same colors for their cards!

I also would like to welcome back to our card team, Niki_Ray Bass! Welcome Home!
