Thursday and Creative Scrappers

Decided I needed a little scrappy therapy today so found this sketch over at Creative Scrappers to play with. I hunted down these photos of my little grandson, Kadin and pulled out some Core'dination's Cosmo Cricket cardstock and some Crate Paper pp to use.




Back to work tomorrow - this week and first part of next is going to kill me. On a day off a day for a week and a half then my FABULOUS three days off and back to my regular schedule. Starting late May I'm going down to a committed 24hr/wk but will probably work a little more - will see how the money goes! Thanks for stopping by!

For your Inspiration

Well I have a horrible schedule this week - work every other day - yuck! Brandy came home for a few days this afternoon and we all went for lunch. Right now they are working on my kitchen - getting it textured but OH MAN does it stink! Something about the type of primer they have to use. BUT it's getting done and that means I can paint it next week and get it back to normal in there. YEAH!
Time for another photo inspirational challenge over at For your Inspiration. Steph has this fabulous one for us this time.
and here's my interpretation of it. I used some Core'dination's Jenni Bowlin on this together with a Nina Bracket Stamp.Thanks for stopping by!

Friday and Creative Scrappers

Happy Friday - actually have the entire weekend off this week but a horrible schedule next week to make up for it. We were going to go to the coast these four days but got cancelled so just here at home. Did some cleaning and packing in the kitchen today in anticipation of the drywall (?) guy coming next week to texture it for me. YEAH. Then comes painting again but I can deal with that. Yesterday I got out this new toy that I got from Prima - it looks like my foot dry skin sander but it's marvelous with Core'dination's cardstock! Found this sketch over at Creative Scrappers and was inspired to play along. Used nothing but Core'dination's here - some Cosmo Cricket and some Tim Holtz Kraft. Flowers are prima and some I made from a die cut from Tim Holtz and from another company that I can't find the name of right now.

Saturday and Unscripted Sketches

As always my three days is ending today and I always hate to see it be over but OOOOOH do I enjoy three days off in a row. Not doing much this week - getting a little scrapping done - alot of time wasting and a little shopping. Went and got a couple of Mountain Laurel to go outside my bathroom window and ordered a bunch of plants to pick up next week. Getting ready for Spring and encouraged by all the rain am hoping that we don't have a dry summer again. I have a gorgeous California Jasmine that hangs over a metal arch to our little sitting corral out front - it has managed to climb way up to the top of the elms around it - this year though it's only blooming it's little heart out WAY up in the top of the trees - no blooms at all down here around the arch! Oh well. Here's my card today for Unscripted Sketches!
I simply used the back side of my Core'dination's cardstock and stamped with a Smooches stamp for my sentiment and then a Stamp Box stamp for my flowers - added some Queen & Company bling.

For your Inspiration

Once again it's time for more inspiration from For Your Inspiration. I love creating from these photos - leaves so much to the imagination. For mine I used some Core'dination's cardstock of course and a stamp from Penny Black. Also used some Tim Holtz ink on this - love this stuff! Please join us with your creations and interpretation!



Thanks for stopping by. My UPS man was a little shocked when I met him on the road today jumping up and down because he had a box for me with some fabulous Core'dinations. WAS so excited to see all my new goodies!
