Loonie Stampers Challenge Double Whammy!!


Well I am feeling much better since my last post. Seriously coughing so hard I thought I was gonna be 31 years old with depends! Anyway, Thanks go out to Crafty Kat and Dee for the well wishes for a speedy recovery, Kat you cracked me up! Thanks.



Now back to business...Here is my card from last weeks challenge. It was not what I had planned but I only have access to part of my craft room and a limited amount of supplies since my house JUST finished having insurance claim repairs done to my ceilings and paint in my whole house. Given the limited supplies, I have to say I am quite in love with this card :)

The current weeks challenge today (from Dee) I wanted to use my new paper from Stampin Up! so I used it to make a wrinkly paper flower. Also i used some ribbon (twine type stuff) that I have been hanging on to. I thought it added a rustic yet elegant twist to the flower...pearls adding to the vintage factor and voila!


Check out what the other chicks did this week


Here is a sneaky peek (and crappy picture) of my new wall colors, think stampin ups crumb cake and chocolate chip ;) Once I get all my pictures mounted and get better pictures I will show you guys the before and after. Still cant sign off on the insurance claim yet because the drywall guy sucks and has to redo quite a few areas of my ceiling.

Cough Cough

So I have bronchitis really bad which is super fun. I have discovered after having two kids and having this cold, that not only have I been coughing so hard I have thrown up but I also have to avoid peeing...LOL hahahaha I love the body as it gets older!

Anyways, I am having insurance work done in my house this week so my craft room is buried under living room furniture and such and will bring my loonie cards in a double whammy next Friday. :)
