so life has it's ups and downs.... right now mine is smashed in between... i have lots of creations to share but timing has just been unbelievably not on my side... it's crazy here in my household and i'm trying my best to keep sane.... still not ready to blurt out my hush hush, but it will be soon... i can feel it! LOL....
haven't been playing much challenges lately... as some of you know i LOVE challenges, with 3 kiddies and different needs, sometimes it's just impossible... i try to when i can, and wish i could all the time, but i had to fix some priorities... today's sharing is actually for a challenge at ATS- Anything Goes.... it's a bit my speed for now, and glad i get to play along this week... so let's take a look at what i created....
really simple layout using scrap papers and one of my all time FAVE TGF stamps - HG Sing.... added some raffia too... for a little hawaiian look... hehe!oh, so my goal on throwing away 2 bags of trash from the craft room was a big fat FAIL... i managed to fill a big black trash bag 3/4 of the way... thinking back to what i was throwing away, i really didn't throw any 'craft' stuff, i think the bag is full because i was throwing away mostly boxes and plastic wrapping from supplies... LOL... still counts right???
well, i sure hope your day and week is off to a good start! come visit whenever you see a blurb pop up on your blog list... i know lately that has been so RANDOM!!! haha!! Tadduh!! =D
i hope things start to get a little easier soon! i love how you've been using up your scraps! isn't that a good feeling when you make use of even the smallest piece... like you're really getting your money worth... lol! take care!
ReplyDeleteI hope things get better for you soon and that it's not as crazy. I've continue to enjoy your creations... just have not left many comments lately. I finally decided to leave one tonight. :) What a cute card. I espcially love the raffia on it.
ReplyDeleteAww, here's a big hug from me to you!!!! >.< Hoping things settle down so you can have a little less pressure. Woot!! HG Sing is also one of my favs.. Hm... I wonder why? hahaha Love your card and the use of scraps and raffia make this a fun card! TFS and good luck with the challenge. Have a great day!! Hugs
ReplyDeleteawwwww, very sweet card Kris! just take a deep breath, look at the sweet HG, and she'll lift your spirits up everyday! Enjoy your day! ;)
ReplyDeleteHugs Kris..I know exactly how you feel! Hope things get better soon :)
ReplyDeleteyou so funny! I try to throw away things and clean up and give stuff away...but yah, it's a FAIL for me too! I always say I can make something with it...but then never do. oh wells. at least you got a card in and entered into a challenge! hope all is well with you! have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine how busy you must be Kris with the needs of a young family. But it's great when you can sneak in some time for yourself to craft and make pretty cards like this one! Take care and just breathe...
ReplyDeletehey girl! great job on the card and for entering a challenge "just because". i can totally relate to you . . . with family, illness, and trying to craft. there's a light at the end of the tunnel right? lol.
ReplyDeleteHello to one of my favorite crafting sisters. I laughed at your inablility to get pass one trash bag full...that's so me too! I tried yesterday to clean off at least one flat surface in my room and failed....but I did find some cool stuff to play with, LOL! At least you have an excuse, a young family....I'm just lazy! I love the local flavor of your card. The raffia is a really nice touch...thanks for another great idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetie! Totally makes me want to go BACK! I love the new font on your blog-how sweet! Hope you are doing well, my busy mama/friend! I know it gets tough to balance it all-I am so behind on so many things but I think of you often!!!!
