Another Summertime Blue!

Well here is another digi-image from Sunshine Stamps! Lennie the Loader, just go onto my sidebar and click on her badge to request a copy of this little guy!

Actually it was great that I had him as StampTV's Friday potluck challenge was to make a card for a boy! Unfortunately I got too much glare from the camera, cause Lennie's safety helmut is silver!

For those of you with tweens and teens, check out Ginak's blog and link up to G2, a great new site for the younger generation who enjoy drawing, stamping, and want to have a place to chat! A great site! They even have a video tutorial for quick cartoon sketches! Really neat, even I can learn, cause I cannot draw for beans! Have a great weekend ALL!

I think I am having Summertime Blues

The SUN has finally come out this afternoon!

I think I was having the blues with all this cloudy and rainy weather. We have been seeing the sun only 2 or 3 days a week and I have been noticing that my mood has also been blue! Well it certainly showed up on my last two cards because both ended being done in blue. No matter, Mr SUN has decided to visit now so I'll go play in the garden after I post this!

This little moose was an image sent to me by snail-mail and decided to use him for StampTV's Thursday sketch challenge! Colored with prisma colors and Oms. I kinda think he is cute. It reminds me of hubby, only the TV remote is missing! LOL!

Birthday card!

Eldest son is in Love! Twice this week he has let me know that it is his new love's B-Day on Sunday, which of course means, could you remember her, Mom! So I have been toying with an idea for a window card. I bought some peel-offs that when stuck on acetate, and colored with glaze pens, give the impression of stained glass! So that is what I tried with this butterfly. Stamped Gkd daisy on the inside and this is the result.

Cards for gift box

Just a couple of cards I made for a gift box project I am working on! Paper and stamps from Stamping Up. The gift box you can get on Splitcoast Stampers

Hot Air Balloon!

I guess I was influenced for my card, by this wonderful sight last week just across the road from our home, in the corn field. A hot air balloon decided to end its flight here so I got these great pics!

We have a festival every year in August that last two weeks, where hundreds of hotair ballons take flight twice a day! The site is about 20km from here, but the air currents seem to bring them our way, so we have quite a wonderful view of them. It is so much fun watching them all with all their beautiful colors and designs. Unfortunately you couldn't get me up in one of them! Petrified of heights! But it is so much fun, cause sometimes they just pass over the house and we can actually say Hello to them! That's how low they can come in here! Poor Pup- Loco is so afraid of them, he scurries into the bathroom and hides!

Another Rainy Day!

Well it is another overcast and calling for rain day! Ugh! Summer has not been great so far! Only 1 BBQ supper that we could actually enjoy outside so far. Have been a little busy on the golf course last weekend (no, I'm not a pro) Just a sport I like to enjoy with hubby, Louis! I am working hard at it though, as I have only been playing for 6 yrs ( and for those who think 6 yrs is long, let me tell you, it isn't) Learning golf at my age isn't easy! Very hard on the ego. By the time you remember all the technical stuff, your legs not too far apart, stick your butt out, bend slightly at the knee, keep your arms straight, keep your head on the ball, check where your ball is place in relation to your feet, how your feet are placed, because it is the direction for the ball, watch your grip. Phew! I am tired just explaining! Then you get to hit the ball. Oops you miss. So what in the heck was I missing in all of the above! LOL! Get the picture?

Here is a little card I made up for StampTV's color challenge. The image is a gkd. Check out all the fun going on there! Have a great one all!
