Going Grey with Scrap-Creations challenge: Flowers

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a happy Easter if you celebrated! I had a great weekend. Saturday I was able to catch up on errands and things at home, and Saturday night we spent a little time with my extended family. We started Sunday at a few early time of 3:30am, when my son woke up everyone to tell us that the Easter bunny came....argh....so cute, but it made for a very tired day! We spent the day with both my parents and my in laws. It was a nice low key Easter!

Wow....you all went to town with your cards last week. Whata great turnout. I love looking at all your amazing creations!

So, this week we have another fabulous challenge for you, with a wonderful brand new sponsor; Stitchy Bear...... With spring in the air, and mothers day approaching, we have decided that this weeks challenge theme is: FLOWERS! The winner of this weeks challenge will receive a GC from the stitchy bear store.

Going Grey with Scrap-Creations Challenge: Digital

Happy Tuesday! I can't believe the week went by so quickly. I had a great weekend, and I was able to get a little crafty as well. Saturday I took a technique class at one of my LSS, taught by Jennifer Mcguire. I learned a bunch of techniques using distress inks...and had lots of fun! Well, I am down to my last 3 weeks of the semester, and then I am as free as a bird. I have to admit, I can't wait for the semester to be over. I am actually looking forward to the days of doing laundry and cleaning my closets. Something have just been put off to long :) The best part of the semester, has been my instructor. She has been the most fantastic instructor I have ever had, and I don't think I would have made it through the year without her, so I have created this card to give her on my last day. I don't think teachers get the recognition they deserve, and I am hoping she will like my card, which I made for this weeks challenge. Which I know you're going to LOVE!!!! What is it you ask?????

This week we want to see what you create with digital images!!!

I'm not sure if you all noticed, but I have become a digital Stamp junkie, and this week we are being sponsored by one of my favorite companies.....TIDDLY INKS! When I made my card, I was completely inspired by a card I saw in the Tidlly inks gallery, and just knew it would perfect for my instructor, as well as my kids teachers for the end of the year! The owner of Tiddly Inks, Christy Croll is offering one random winner of this weeks challenge a GC to her store. Now, who wouldn't want FREE DIgis from Tiddly Inks? We had some great cards from our lastweeks challenge, but we all know, there can only be 3 Top 3 cards. This weeks TOP 3 are:

Going Grey with Scrap-Creations challenge: It's a sketch

Happy Tuesday! Wow....what a weekend I had :) It all started Friday, at my clinical rotation, I got to preform a certian (pee pee) procedure on my patient for the first time. I won't go into details, as you all may not find the subject as thrilling as I (wink), but it was wonderful to be able to finally put one of my nursing skills to use. Then on Friday I had dinner with some friends, Sat was my b-day (21st of course), and my hubby and kids were so wonderful, and on Sunday, My daughter competed in her first ever Gymnastics States competition. Oh, she made us so proud! Like I said, what a great weekend. I hope yours was wonderful as well! We have another Fabulous challenge for you this week. We are getting sketchy with a fabulous sketch designed for us by Kristine Breach, and to top it off, we have a super fun Sponsor this week!
