CCEE2147: Thankful {leaves}

  Hi friends!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you from my home to yours!

I hope everyone is planning a beautiful day

of family, friends and feast :)

It's my last challenge at the CCEE Stampers

and today, being a day of giving thanks, my challenge is simple:

Being that it's Thanksgiving, create a card or project

with a thankful theme ~ 

bonus points for adding a leaf/leaves on your card!

Thanks for joining the November challenges if you did

as I've certainly enjoyed creating them and seeing your cards!

Here is mine, using Sugar Pea Designs Fall Fox!

It's such a sweet stamp and die set - I just love anything critters

but add in some fall and leaves and I'm in extra love :)

I stamped/die cut the images and colored them with copics.

I added the critters and leaves to a background that I distress inked

and stamped a matching sentiment.

You can see all the of DT cards here as well as link up your card!

Thanks for stopping by!

3M: Have an ice day!

 

Hi friends!

I'm having an ICE day! :)

I hope you are, too!

I'm a little late getting my post up as I went to bed late (at 3 am)

and was up early running errands and *breath* had a zoom card class.

We're on break right now so I'm scrunching this in!

(that's when ya scramble and crunch ... at the same time!)

It's time for another round of 3M - that's the 3 Musketeers - 

card challenge using a mystery image.

This month's image was sent to Barb and I by Jeanette 

(hence, the 3 in Musketeers!)

I haven't used my Sugar Pea Designs stamps

 in a month of Sundays so it was fun to see!

It's called Have An Ice Day and it's soooooo cute :)

You can see Barb's card here and Jeanette's card here

and we'll be back in February with me as the hostess :)

Thanks for stopping by!

CCEE ~ World Lion Day!

Hello friends!!

It's that time again for the CCEE Stampers to create a card

with a chosen theme by the hostess, Frances!

Since tomorrow is World Lion Day,

our cards are to show a lion somewhere ♥
 

Lions are such magestic and interesting animals!

It's easy to see from their raw power and size that they are 

definitely "King of the Jungle." 

 

For me, my sweet boy and I love, love, LOVE listening to 

the christian radio station when we are out and about in the car.

One of his favorite groups is Big Daddy Weave!

Yes, that's the name, LOL!

They have a song called the Lion and the Lamb 

and we know it - and sing it - by heart!

I can hold a half way decent tune,

but between the two of us, we can belt it out when we're inspired!

The lyrics that I sing over and over, even when I'm in the shower!

I'm cooking or cleaning or singing without music :)

 Our God is the Lion, the Lion of Judah
He's roaring with power and fighting our battles
And every knee will bow before You
Our God is the Lamb, the Lamb that was slain
For the sin of the world, His blood breaks the chains
And every knee will bow before the Lion and the Lamb ...

Isn't it beautiful!

When I saw the theme for this week's card,

I knew I wanted to use the Lion from the Caring Critters stamp set and the matching SugarCut die set from Sugar Pea Designs.

It's one of my favorites ♥ 

I've paired it with a sentiment from another stamp set:  Kindness Matters.

Oh ... this stamp set! 

It speaks to my heart!

I colored the lion with prismacolor markers and added a tiny bit of 
wink of stella to his main and tail.

There is a fun sketch/inspiration picture over at the Sugar Pea Designs blog

for the mix-it-up challenge #46 so I'll enter my card there.

To see the rest of the Lion Pride,

be sure to stop over at the CCEE blog to be inspired by different lion creations!

Thanks for stopping by!
Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥

I'm a 3 Musketeer! ♥

Hi friends! 

Hopefully blogger will behave and launch while I'm

away either canoeing, doing archery, hiking and much more!

 

I'm excited to announce that I'm a 3 Musketeer!

 

I'm delighted to have been invited by Jeanette,

creator of a new mystery group,

 to be part of her 3 Musketeers image swap group.

How fun is that!

Thank you, Jeanette :)

 

Barb, our other Musketeer, had a fun

idea to put our heads on this image as funny bobbleheads

so my daughter got to work on one and this is what we got!

So you'll see off to the right hand screen a new blog badge - hee hee!

Hilarious!
 

The 3 M's - Jeanette, Barb and me! :)
 

What's this group all about?

Once a month we'll share a 'mystery' image and create a card due

on the 9th of the month to post our vision w/ that image.

Easy breazy lemon squeezy!

 

Jeanette is our first hostess as creator/founder of this group

and she chose a delightful Autumn image from Sugar Pea Designs

called Bountiful blessings.

 

Here's my card, inside and out:

 

Be sure to stop in and see what the other two Musketeers

created with this gorgeous image ~
Thank you Jeanette for your image this month!

 

Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
