BIG OOPS!!!

Hi everyone! This was supposed to be published Monday but on Sunday, my lap top decided it didn't want to work. My photos were stuck on the computer in edit mode, so I had no way of getting them off! Tim had taken the camera so I couldn't even retake the picture! UGH!!! Anyway, this is for the Squigglefly challenge this week which is a tough one....it is to make a FALL card using ROLLED FLOWERS. This was totally out of my "comfort zone" but I persevered and made ONE! LOL I added ROCK CANDY distress stickles to make it look "dewy" (is that even a word?? LOL)

Head over to the Challenge blog to see what the rest of the DT made - their flowers are WAY nicer than mine is!!!! LOL I hope you will join us this week!!!

Designed2Delight challenge.....

This weeks challenge at Designed2Delight is to use this great OAK WREATH image. As soon as I saw it I knew what I wanted to do with it! I printed out 2 copies, coloured them both, then cut out individual leaves to pop them out to make it look "real". The acorns are popped out too!!! The ribbon is recycled from a chocolate box but it fits perfectly with the colour scheme of my leaves....which, qualifies me 100% for the Double Delight challenge which is Autumn Colours!!! Weeee hooooo!!!!! The sentiment is from Magnolia.

Here is a side view...you can kinda see the leaves popped out:

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great night!!!

Corrosive Challenge Blog

This weeks challenge over at The Corrosive Challenge Blog is to use Old Olive & Real Red - both are SU! colours but Old Olive is like an "olivey" green, and Real Red is a bright red! Soooo, use those 2 colours!!! I figured most would do a Christmas card, so I decided to do a Halloween card - I was inspired by this funky glittery web DP I got from a blog candy prize a few years ago!! The bear & bat are from C.C. Designs and the ribbon is from Dollarama!

I hope you will join us this week! There are some great prizes this month!!!!

Kenny K challenge - Music!

Woo hooo!! I squeeked in another week of Kenny K's Krafty Girlz Challenges!!!! This week their theme is MUSIC, to showcase the fabulous Rock Squad images that were just released!! Soooo cool!!! I haven't bought any yet (I will!) so I used Download Diva, which is part of the Glam Gang!

This is a scrapling card (5.5" x 3") that I made using some scraps I had on my desk! I ran the pink through my Allegro folder (Cuttlebug) and used a sentiment from a Simon Says Stamp set. I coloured her with Copics and the ribbon is actually from my scraps bin too!!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!! Have a great day!!!! I get to meet my new students today, so am excited about that!! Off I go to work!!!!!
