CHRISTMAS CARDS 2

Okay...cuz I'm technologically challenged[ read barely above idiot when it comes to this stuff} I haven't figured out how to change the order of these postings ...so if ya wanna read about the motivation behind these cards , check out my last blog! Here's a few more cards! Michelle

Christmas cards

Okay ...well this one is just for you , Susie Q ! who asked me to blog my cards. These cards were ALL inspired by my Stampin' Up demonstrator, Kathy, who started a contest, "The 12 Weeks of Christmas" for her customers. Check her out at htpp://inkinbythebay.stampinup.net Please , Santa, let me win the gift basket heehee... actually that WOULD be nice but I'm just grateful to Kathy for motivating me to get my cards done....and yes, I followed her golden rule ," always make two of everything". As Kathy pointed out , it's just as easy to cut two of everything as one. Pretty well everything in these cards are Stampin' Up{ paper, ink and stamps} except for the snowman stamp[ Wallyworld last year and the Santa flying his sleigh which is from Muse}. Get crackin ' people ! Christmas is only 24 days away...holy crap! what am I doin' blogging??? I got work to do!!!! Thanks for stopping by!

Olympic Relay LO

Olympic torch relay

Woo Hoo! Olympic torch passed thru here today...what a unique experience! Awesome to see such a big display of Canadian pride! Chelsea's choir .The Chorale, was the choir picked to sing at the ceremonies today and they are following the torch all the way to Port aux Basque...gonna be a late night for them!I'm just attaching a couple of pics from this afternoon...will have a LO done about it by midnight I figure haha....I'm not kidding , I have one started already!

Where did October go????

Holy smokes! I can't believe its November already!I'm not a very consistent blogger now am I? Oct was VERY busy and chaotic for me. Trip to St.John, NB for national dialysis convention, work, trying to get some renos done around here ...not to mention getting ready for Halloween! I got a reputation to uphold! My kids said kids at school were asking why I never had my Haunted house done up yet? I seem to have done WAY TOO MUCH scrap shopping lately. Bought tonnes at MIchael's in NB [ what's a girl to do...don't have access to a Michael's here!] plus ordered a crapload of stuff from Scrapbook.com , not to mention shopping at my LSS. I did manage to get a few Lo's done tho.... I really like this one I did yesterday. I'm very attached to "old stuff" and I'm very covetous of my christening dress...I don't mind lending it out but it always comes back to me! I wasn't really sure what I wanted from this LO, and wasn't sure how to start so I basically picked a bunch of pink, white and black stuff and played till I was happy with it. I really love those cute little Jenni Bowlin bingo cards and altho it wasn't planned, I seemed to have ended up using alot of Heidi Swapp on this LO. Thanks for stopping by and happy scrapping!

Sweet 16!

Can't believe my little girl is sixteen already ! holy smokes ! Is time speeding up or what?? Did this LO last night in honor of her milestone. Been seeing alot of this color combo of tourquois and red lately and wanted to give it a try. Its a great color combo! Anybody else got any favorite color combos? I'm also partial to Blue/brown and pink/brown...you can never go wrong with those. Thanks for stopping by!
