Whew!

Hey there! It's me! Remember me? Probably NOT! I know I've been out for a while! I had a lot going on with taxes, Vegas trips, sick kid, sick self, etc. But I'm back!

First off, do you like my new blog look? I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it! :) Veronica at VK Design Co. did it. Click on her blinkie and go put your name down to get a new one! She can really do pretty much anything!

2nd off, my trip to Vegas was AWESOME!.....other than the fact the Matt Kenseth lost his engine in like the 5th lap or something.....but fun was definitely had! I have pictures coming as soon as I figure out how to get them to download onto my computer! :)

And...YES...I do have some things to share. I was going to share these before I left, but couldn't find the time! These are the cards I made for February's VSN! Although I only got a few done, I still had tons of fun!


So there's the lump sum of them! You can visit my SCS gallery HERE for the details of the cards! So, I'm out for now! I promise to be back later (or tomorrow)!

• It's ketchup time! :)

Oh....I mean CATCH UP! :D I've been stamping and I've been doing digital stuff. I just haven't posted! So bear with me as I show a few things!

Digi "Stuff" Used:
Paper: DSB Girls Night Out, Christmas in July
Accessories: DSB Christmas in July

This is a digi page I did for the first His Holy Name Challenge, put on by Patter Cross. The word was "holy." How appropriate! :D I decided to participate in these challenges because I am trying to build my relationship with Jesus Christ and become closer to my Saviour. Plus these challenges are going to get me to study my bible more and understand it a lot more. Patter is so inspiring when it comes to her relationship with Jesus and I want to be able to inspire people one day as well. First, I just need to work on getting building my relationship with Him. :D

With that being said, here is Patter's Scripture Challenge for week 1.

Digi "stuff" used: Digi Scrap Boutiqe "Summer" Kit

You know, it's amazing the way Jesus Christ is. Over the past year or so, I had done some really stupid things and some other things happened where I was really beginning to question my faith in Jesus Christ. When Patter first announced when the challenges were beginning, I immediately knew I was going to do the His Holy Name Challenge. I figured the scripture challenge could wait.......UNTIL Jesus told me to peek at the Scripture challenge. The word was "faith." To tell you the truth, I almost wanted to cry because this challenge was so perfect for me! I am sooo glad Jesus Christ told Patter she needed to start with "faith" and I am sooo glad he told me to take a peek! Just in the last week, I tell you, my faith has grown to be 10 x stronger! I am soo excited to keep going with these challenges and understand the Bible and Jesus a lot better!

So onto real life stamping........

This is a card I did for Amber's Sketch Challenge in the Unity forum. I think this was #7, but it was a while ago and I actually did this the same week, I just haven't posted! :D


And here's a card I did, but hate. For a Bella Sketch Challenge on SCS. Once again, I'm not sure what number as it was a long time ago, but I'm wanting to say it was #59. I just love Stella with an Olive on Top. She is too cute. The sketch didn't turn out the way I wanted, so I was gonna re-do, but never got that far! And now I'm behind 3 challenges! :D

This card I done for the Bella Color Challenge last week. The challenge was to use pink, pink, and more pink! I LOVED this challenge as I LOVE pink! :D Once again the card didnt turn out the way I wanted it to, but I have no time to redo! :D


This card I did, yesterday for the My Favorite Things Guest Desinger Challenge. The challenge was to do a one layer card. This was pretty hard for me to grasp as I HAVE to have layers!:D I think I'm gonna go buy that boot, though! I love boots!

• Please do!

....Wake me when it's Christmas, that is! I am so ready for Christmas, but soooo tired! So, please, just wake me when it gets here! :D

As you can tell, I finally made it down to my stamp room! And I FINALLY got to ink up a stamp set from My Favorite Things! Isn't it so cute?! The stamp set is called Merry Christmas and I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I used DP from SU!'s Frosty Day packet! I used Ripe Avocado, Chocolate Chip, and Tangerine Tango Cs. The image is stamped on PTI Stamper's Select White! I ran the base through the Textile Texture Embossing Folder and mounted the images with Dimensional Adhesives!

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! Have a great rest of the weekend! Monday I will be gone for a doctor's appointment! I will post ultrasound pics of the little peanut when I get back!
