Back To School

A closer look!

The inside of my card!

 

Can you believe that our summer is already coming to an end. I must admit that I won't miss the 100+ temperatures and all the outside work. But, I know for some the onset of winter brings great bouts of depression. Myself, I love fall! I love walking through the crisp leaves and all the beautiful colors that the colder weather brings. But, I do feel for those of you who hate to see summer over! 

Now to my card! We are having another fun challenge at The Paper Shelter! Our challenge this time is "Back To School". I chose for may card this darling image named "99 Messages and 3 chats"! It makes me thing how things have changed since I was in school. Most kids have a cell phone these days, so I thought this would be the perfect stamp for "Back To School"! I can imagine that she is calling or texting all her friends about what they are wearing, where to meet, lunch, teachers...and on and on. I hope you will join the fun at our challenge blog! You can find it here! Be sure and pop over to The Paper Shelter store and check out all fun digi stamps! I can't wait to see your take on "Back To School"!

My Song: Be True To Your School (The Beach Boys)

When some loud braggart tries to put me down
And says his school is great
I tell him right away
Now what's the matter buddy
Ain't you heard of my school
It's number one in the state

So be true to your school now
Just like you would to your girl or guy
Be true to your school now
And let your colors fly
Be true to your school

I got a letterman's sweater
With a letter in front
I got for football and track
I'm proud to where it now
When I cruise around
The other parts of the town
I got a decal in back

So be true to your school now
Just like you would to your girl or guy

Be true to your school now
And let your colors fly
Be true to your school

My Song: Autumn Leaves

The falling leaves drift by my window

The falling leaves of red and gold

I see your lips the summer kisses

The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Something new for me!

My cute kitty die!

I need to add a top rail to complete the scene!

A closer look at my stamped figure!

 

When I attended the Scrapbook Convention in Puyallup, Washington this year I took a class from Krazy Kreations. I must admit that this class was totally out of the box for me! I had so much fun with this class and was able to relax and just enjoy what I made. I also won a $25 gift certificate that I could spend in their booth. I bought this cute stamp and the chipboard. I had put it back for a few months and then a fellow crafter, the uber talented Nan Leonard and we decided to make up our chipboard. This is what I ended up with. All of the paper I used came from the scrap bin. I stamped my image and colored it with Copics. The kitty and the spiral staircase are die cuts. I added the post cards and the little heart. I am going to put a small paper pad on the back and give this for a Christmas present for a special friend. I am going to add a tiny top rail to my staircase to complete the look of it going around the corner! Just a fun little creation to change up what I normally do!

My Song: Downtown (Petula Clark)

When you're alone, and life is making you lonely
You can always go
Downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know
Downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown, no finer place for sure
Downtown everything's waiting for you

It's The Little Things!

 A closer look at my cute digi stamp!

 Bubbles and more bubbles!

 The sentiment die!

 

The inside of my card!

It is time for another fun challenge at The Paper Shelter! For me this was a fun challenge as I love my punches and dies. I love using dies with punches a close? second. I must admit the storage issue is why I love my dies! I used "Relaxing Bath" for my card. Doesn't this cute image make you want to hop into a relaxing tub of water? I used dies for my sentiment, bottle, mirror, and frame for the inside of the card. Liquid Glass was used on the bubbles in the tub and on her hair. I hope you enjoy this card and will thank God for all the 'little' things we have in our lives!  Now, back to our fun challenge, you will find beautiful images over at the The Paper Shelter and there are so many to choose from also. Our Sponsors are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website. But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.

So grab those punches, dies, and join the fun!

My Song: The Little Things (The Oak Ridge Boys)

It's the way you kiss me when we're walkin' down the street 

It's the words you whisper when we're driftin' off to sleep 

A certain way you touch me, the way you say "hello" 

Baby it's the little things that make me love you so.

The way you pour your coffee in the early mornin' light 

The way you call my name out in the middle of the night 

How you sit for hours singin' with the radio 

Baby it's the little things that make me love you so.

It's not the memories or all that we've been through 

It's not the distant dreams that keep me coming back to you 

It's not the promises that keep me warm at night 

It's just the every day, it's just the safe and sound, it's just our home sweet home.

And when we're old and gray now and the kids have gone away 

We're alone together I may turn to you and say 

There's something I forgot to tell you and by now I think you'll know 

Baby it's the little things that make me love you so. 

Woah woah, Baby it's the little things that make me love you so.

Cute As A Button Mermaid! ***

 

A closer look!

I seem to be on a mermaid kick lately, but they are so much fun to color. This darling mermaid is the latest release at "Cute As A Button"! She is called "Reggae" just click on the link to go to the store!  This is one of those I wish you could see this card in real life as the picture does not show all the sparkle! I used 'Wink of Stella' on her tail and the beads in her hair. I also used liquid glass on the bubbles. I hope you will take time and hop on over to the Cute as A Button Shop and grab some of the fabulous digis you will find there.

My  Song: Part of Your World (Little Mermaid)

Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has ev'rything?
Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Lookin' around here you'd think
(Sure) she's got everything

I've got gadgets and gizmos aplenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
(You want thingamabobs?
I got twenty)
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more

Happy Birthday Luke!

 

 

Today is our oldest grandson's 13th birthday. He is a wonderful blessing to our family. He is always teasing me about being a "Grey Hair" and he tells me when I 'get old' he will drive me where ever I need to go! I had to laugh when I saw this stamp from Mo Manning because it was perfect for his birthday card! He did get a big kick out of it and  it made me happy to know I made him laugh on his special day! Happy Birthday Luke....can't believe you are a teenager already.
