Good day...

Good day......to all my green wearin' friends! Happy St. Patricks Day! Yay! No green beer for me today but a free lunch at Andiamo's. Sweetness!

Well I joined the blog hop over at http://www.spcolorcombos.blogspot.com/ this past weekend and they had a "going green" color challenge. You had to use the color combo that you see below and reuse something as your green item. Colors were awesome, "green" item was a bit of a challenge in itself for me. I decided to use some crumpled up tissue paper and dabbed it on a inkpad to white textured paper for color and it looks sort of like marble. Is that "green" enough?


I combined this challenge with another over at http://www.a-scrapaddicts-sketches.blogspot.com/ here are the songs that you had to choose from:

TIME Hootie and the Blowfish**HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY Rod Stewart**I DON'T FEEL LIKE DANCIN' Scissor Sisters**MORE BEAUTIFUL YOU Jonny Diaz** FIREFLIES Owl City

Their sketch was pretty wonderful too!


So using the color combo from SPCC, and the sketch & song from Just My Sketches...I believe I came out with a really nice and fun LO. I chose the Rod Stewart song, one reason is its the only song that I knew. Second, I chose what I thought was a perfect lyric from the song, "You Fill My Life with Laughter!"


So I hope you enjoy my page as I did enjoy creating it.




Have a great day no matter how you celebrate!

Lazy Rainy Days

So this weekend was super rainy and gloomy, thats ok it was a great weekend still. I stayed in completed and started some challenges. Got to do my first blog hop w/ SPCC, first time for them hosting a blog hop. Too much fun, and lots of inspiration! We all need that from time to time. I actually learned alot about going green while scrapbooking. Something I've gone green on (but didn't think of it this way until I read others green stuff) is that I take cake frosting containers clean them up, take the label off, and create a new label and use it for storage. Try it, perfect size for so many things. Darn it, I should of taken a picture of some of mine. I will and post later.



My first card here is for the SPCC #38








Serious? My coloring is off again. I think the computer at home needs to have some adjusting. I saw bright pink. Well either way it was fun using the colors that I did, cuz I normally would not. You should go to http://www.spcolorcombos.blogspot.com/ to see what the other entries are, beautiful stuff for sure!







My second challenge #43 is over at http://www.allsortschallenge.blogspot.com/ this week they chose a color combination. I got to work w/ my favorite colors, black, pink & white. Awesome!



Well its time to start this week off, and I actually have Tuesday and Friday off so I'm hoping to finish the other challenges that I started. Happy for the lazy rainy days this past weekend. BTW the weather channel is calling for sunshine all week and next weekend will be more rain. Oh yea, my sister and I are going to Macomb Community College for a Scrapbook show. Yay for us!
