Penny Black A Lil Sunshine For A Rainy Day

We have been beyond spoiled with our weather here the last two weeks - it was 80 this week!  All the flowers are really confused just hoping we don't get a blizzard now!  Today it's cooler and rainy which is ok we are inside still packing.  We move on Friday and we cannot wait.  I got all my furniture for my new craft room and picked out new curtains and a chair cushion for my brand new comfy chair.  I haven't had a ton of time for cards but I did make this one with a cte Penny Black image.  I'm entering this in the Penny Black Easter challenge and Cute Card Thursday's Anything Goes challenge.

Nice bright colors - colored with Copics.  Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday.

The Stamping Boutique CAS

Clean and simple was a rough challenge for me lol!  But that's why they call them challenges.  I couldn't imagine not putting flowers on a card but here is my cutie Audrey.

Isn't the squirrel just the cutest?  Colored with Copics.  Check out the latest challange at The Stamping Boutique an play along.  Hoping to get a few cards done before I have to pack up my craft stuff.  We are all getting really excited to move!  Hope everyone is having a good week it's Spring so I'm happy because summer is on it's way!

Who doesn't love a candy shop????  Colored with Copics.  My brain is on fire this week so much to do to get ready to move and I swear I don't know who bought all this stuff that is in my house that I have to pack lol.  Hoping to get a lot done today but sadly I haven't hardly had any time to make cards and I'm missing it!

Liebster Award

I logged on the computer this morning to find the nicest comment from Miss Sue at Confessions of a Paper Hoarder (don't we all suffer from that lol!).  She nominated me for the "Liebster" award,  posted the nicest comment and some "love" on her blog! Make sure you hop over and check out her blog and creations. 

Liebster means "favourite" in German, and the award is given by peers to fellow bloggers who have been able to inspire despite their small following. Once accepted, an award recipient must "pay it forward" by completing the following steps:

Here are five blogs that I feel deserve to receive the Liebster Award:
Wendalyn at Creations By Wendalyn.  I've followed her for years and her work is always an inspriation for me, her creations are amazing.

Patty at Winnie's Whims & My Crafts.  Patty has always been amazing at me leaving me sweet and inspiring comments and her cards are beautiful.

Diane at My Useless Crafts.  I met Diane through Splitcoast Stampers, she doesn't live to far from me and we have been able to get together at the Inspiration Station.  She has a love for crafts and is so talented, card making, knitting, quilting she does it all!

Christy at Christy's Zaney Creations Christy has been amzing to me teaching me the ropes of being on my first design team for The Stamping Boutique, and her work is amazing!

Be sure to stop by and check out all these talented ladies and again, Thank You for considering me worthy of this award!

Penny Black Chicken

I just love the chickens by Penny Black!  I'm trying to convince Mark when we move that we need chickens.  So far it's not looking good lol!

Colored this cutie with Copics, the flowers are from Wild Orchid.  We are running around like lunatics packing up the house cannot wait to move.  Hope everyone is having a good week the weather has been gorgeous I even broke out my flip flops!

Lazy Sunday

I haven't done much card making this week, we've kicked it into high gear packing.  Three more weeks and we will be in our new house.  Can't wait.  I went and picked up some furniture for my new craft room yesterday.  New table and chair and some shelving.  I think I'm most excited about my craft room! 

Here is a High Hopes image for their challenge "It's Not Easy Being Green" and also for Cute Card Thursday's sketch challenge.  I don't normally do sketch challenges I have trouble listening to direction and I hope this isn't to loose of a interpretation!!  Also submitting this in Pollycraft Monday's challenge Spring is Sprung.  It's gorgeous here today and supposed to be warmer all week yay!! 

Colored with Copics.  We are sitting on the couch this afternoon watching the race and being bums.  Hope everyone is going their Sunday!

The Stamping Boutique Pearls And Swirls

This challenge was right up my alley!  We are doing weekly challenges now at The Stamping Boutique! 
This week is pearls and swirls and the design team has come up with some amzing projects.  I love all my swirly punches and it's rare that I don't add some pearl bling somewhere on my card.

Isn't this bunny just the cutest??  You can find her here.  Colored with Copics.  Hope everyone is having a good week we are packing up the house forgot how much packing stinks but I'm excited to unpack!
