Wish on a Scrap Challenge #1

A lot of my blog friends are doing the challenge from Wish on a Scrap. I wanna play too!!! Here is my version...

Every single day I get on the computer and scrap with my real sister who lives in Arkansas. We always use yahoo or stickam and scrap with our webcams on. It is sooo much fun!! I am always just grabbing my blue robe when I get cold and the other day my brother in law asked if I was going to get dressed or just wear the same thing as the day before? LOL!! Duh! Brother,I changed....sorta...I showered and just took my hubbys p.j.'s out of the dryer and wore his while mine were washing. HAHAHA!!!

Another part of the card is the slippers and the blue shirt under the robe. I didn't just do a color mix up and decide to color it blue...almost. I couldn't just leave it white and have everyone think I was naked!!! LOL!! Under my robe is my new Wii pajamas that my MIL got the whole family for christmas and they are also blue. She was sooo super smart!!! LOVE HER!! She got me and hubby the same size so I could alternate washing and wearing. TMI ALERT!!! Shhh...he only wears his boxers....hehehe...mostly. My MIL is also a slipper and P.J. FANATIC!!! Seriously!!! Although I do not have bunny slippers, they are white Abonomable (SP?) Snowman slippers from the Christmas cartoon Rudolph. I had to...uhh emm...we wore them when she visited from Washington and we did Black Friday shopping. You HAVE to wear themed P.J.'s when shopping the day after Thanksgiving. I flocked the bunny ears to add some deminsion. I made this card for her, it totally fits her. That's the reason for the "missing you" on the front of the card.

I know, really long blog post. I loved this challenge. What a great idea!! The paper is DCWV and glittered, basic cardstock and handmade flowers out of mulberry paper....leftover from my "Tear Bear" attempts. Uggghhhhh...that's a whole other story! Anyways, I just love this color combo. Hot pink and blue-ish-teal?? I can't ever seem to get away from the pink, at least it wasn't green....again.

P.S. This also goes with the new Mail it out challenge for SNS Yahoo group...wooo hoo I am doubly challenged....oppps (Insert Scooby Doo tilted head here saying Ruttt?)

Sorry So Long....Happy about playing Challenges,

Carrie

Jacksonbelle Embellishment Challenge Time!

I am sooo excited!! I have officially started working on challenges. I have 4 of them. One of the cards is a do-over....can't have too many Birthday cards.


Here is Challenge#1: Anything to do with the word "ring". I used DCWV and the "Ring around the Rosie's theme". I also used Ring shaped Grommets.




Challenge #2: Black, White and Bling. I used DCWV with glitter and embossed an image from the "An Affair of the Heart" stamp set from Inkadinkadoo. I added some bling to the corners and ribbon to a small binder clip.
Challenge #3: New Years Resolution. I used Diplomabella, my Cuttlebug embossing folders on my Big Shot and a graduation hat charm. I am hoping to graduate with my degree this year and start teaching.
Challenge #4: Birthday. It is Lindsey's Birthday over at Jacksonbelle. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LINDSEY!!! You all have seen a card identical to this one about a week ago. Since I have to make duplicate birthday cards, this is what I came up with. I used Partygirlbella and embossed SU! cupcake wheel on some Deisgn Paper picked up at Hobby Lobby.
Usually I just play along in "made up" challenges with my cousin. This is both of our first "official" time playing in challenges. You can click HERE to go and see her version of the challenges. Give her a shout out and leave her a comment while you are over there. This is her first blog site and she finally made it about 2 days ago.
I am hopefully going to start on some SweetNSassy Challenges now, I had so much fun at their Blog Party last night!!
Love, Carrie
