{get your runway on}

Ok, for my last challenge this week I've played in Runway Inspiration.

Maybe it will inspire me to become skinny.

Maybe it will inspire me to wear a weird outfit.

Maybe it will inspire me to live in another country.

You know the kind that produce models for the runway?

Maybe it will inspire to make a fantastic card!

I think I need a bag of Peanut Butter M&M's!!

Here is the picture of the Model showdown this week.....

Maybe I'm inspired to go stand in a corner of a room by a heater.

Hmm, I'm might save that one for another day.

I love this challenge blog.  You get a picture for each challenge of "runway inspiration" and take what you get from it and create something.  I love that it's soooo open ended and the possibilities are just incredible.   If you've never played there you should!  Go.  Be INSPIRED!

Well, here's my card for the challenge.  I think it's one of my favorites!

I think I was inspired!

I think I need my M&M's now.

Then maybe the elliptical machine after that.

Yet another card finished for challenges this week!  I have one more to complete, but I still have another week to do it!  Whew, I have a HUGE mess to clean up, and it has to happen fast because we have boy scouts at our house this weekend!!  (I don't think they want to scrapbook or make cards)  Can't wait to do Girl Scouts!!

OH, yes, I had made a card!

So far, this is one of my favorites!!  I did this one for the Mojo Monday Challenge.  It's a sketch, and I really, really like it!!

I used my favorite (most favorite) paper pack from CTMH, but just got a new stamp set from a SU friend, so I had to use it.  My Sis-in Law is getting ready to graduate hair school and I thought this would be a good one to send to her!

So fun!

Ok, that's it for a few days.  I guess I'll put the paper, stamps, embossing folder, cricut machine, inks, markers, punches and everything else away!  :(

Last night I had scrap night.

While I have fun chatting, chatting, chatting.

Did I mention I like chatting?

It calls for not getting a lot done!

But hey, I get to chat with the gals right?

I did however complete this card for the challenge blog Paper Players.

I told you I've been wanting to do more challenges!

So, in the one challenge, there was basically four.

1.)Buttons
2.) Bows
3.) Baby theme
4.) Clean and Simple

Whew, this is a lot when you're trying to chat it up with the gals who came to scrapbook!

Anywho, here's what I came up with...

Buttons....check

Bows....check

Baby....check

CAS...Check (I think)

Well, it's done anyway, and it's headed off to a friend who just had a baby girl, and of course her and I are a little obsessed with owls, so it's just a little perfect for her!

This week I've been battling the dirty house....

This week I've been attending to 3, yes 3, sick kids (all with something different)....
.....2 ear infections, 2 pink eyes, high fever, cough, congestion, runny nose,  everything but the pukes (thank God).

This week I've been getting ready for my scrapbook group....

This week the kids are off from school, we had big plans....

This week, this week, this week.....

....There are fun challenges going on everywhere and I'm wanting to play in all of them!!
I'm going to try my best.

I made this card for the Dynamic Duos challenge this week, which I love this color combination.

I just love this stamp set from CTMH, so cute!!

This is also a sneak peak at Black Tie Fridays challenge coming out tomorrow.  Hmmm I wonder what it will be????

{Beach Time}

I so rarely blog about our adventures!  It's so much easier to snap that picture and put it onto Facebook, but the beach is so fun, and it always allows me to take such pretty pictures!  We took our last beach adventure with our wonderful new friends Jen and her son Jett (he's so cute!)

I've also been messing with storyboards for my blog, which my new way is way easier than my old way!!  I had fun putting our pictures of our outing into these fun story boards.  Hope you enjoy them too.


Jen introduced me to a new beach called Capitola Beach.  I really, Really, REALLY, liked it!  She knows me so well!!  It is a fun, little more up scale, beach town.

Jett is a little more adventurous than April.  He will run straight for the water with NO hesitation.  He sure keeps Jen on her toes.  April's pretty content to sit and dig in one spot!  She hates the water!  So funny the difference in age.

I also couldn't resist taking a picture of my pretty, new, thirty-one, beach bag (for my other friend Jen back in Ks.)  So pretty huh?

It's supposed to be nice and warm again this week, I might just hit the beach!!
