Lady in Charge


This card is for the Bugaboo Whacky Wednesday Challenge.  Love their digis such a variety and some oh so funny.  The challenge was to use three buttons and no DP.
I colored the digi with copics, used a Spellbinders die cut behind the "lady" and for the sentiment.  Just plain purple cardstock for the background.  Used three buttons which I colored with my copics and added two red gems to her purple shoes.  The sentiment came with the image.  Tied it all together with a bit of embroidery thread.

Rained very hard about an hour ago, but there is a beautiful sunset beginning now.

Lilacs





This card is for MMSC 108 Sketch Challenge.  The lilacs are from Stanzbogen Die Cuts.  The butterflies are from Recollections.  The Cardstock and pearls are from my Stash.

Was away last week, golfing for 3 days with a group of 14 had a great time the weather was good all the time we were away.  Card day Thursday, all day.  Friday my husband wanted to go to the Falls and because I am the driver - away we went had a good day there.  Not too much rest over the weekend, so when I golfed this am. at 7:27 - you could tell I was tired - probably should have taken a cart.

Old Fashion Golf


I am going to enter this card into the CDAC Midnight Madness challenge MMSC105, I have chosen the KISS version of the sketch we were provided with.  I am quite pleased with my card.  The image from the Stamp Barn  is embossed, with Stampendous black embossing powder.  The paper has a leather feel to it and the back is a metalic copper color.  It is from my stash so don't know the mfg.  The ribbon top and bottom is one of my favorites for male cards. it is from So-Facile Canada Inc.  

The above is a card for my eldest sons birthday, I do love to tease him about his age.  He is retired now, but works under contract.  He does have more time for golf, as he does not always put in a five day week.  He has a very sports minded family, everyone has their own favorite sport including his wife and three boys.  All favor a different sport.  His is triathalons, but is training now for an Iron Man race. 

To-day is card day, so must be on my way.  To-day we play out in the country, so on my way home I pass several farms that sell plants.  If it isn't raining, I hope to stop and get some new plants for my garden.
