Your Highness Lucy Birthday Wish Card

It was one of my co-worker's birthday yesterday.  And if you couldn't guess, lol, her favorite color is hot pink!  She wears pink almost everyday and everything she owns is pink.

I made a larger card than normal, as there's 20 of us in my department.  I wanted to make sure there was enough space for everyone to sign. :)  Gracia was teaching class this week, but I hope she had a wonderful birthday! 

Well, I hope you all have a wonderful Friday!  Any fun plans for the weekend?  I'm chatting with my crafty besties tonight and then going to Impress's Stamp Night with +Sandy Allnock and +Sheila Gay!  It will be a fun weekend of crafting for me!

Always Jump in Puddles Rain-Never-Stopped-Me-abella Card

I bought this stamp so long ago, I couldn't even tell ya when, lol. (I think it was Winter CHA 2011.)  +Shaela Odd and I stayed up late every night and we even placed our order while we were in Los Angeles with Emily.

And sadly, last time I checked the Stamping Bella site, you can't buy this stamp anymore. But I'm glad that I'm finally getting around to actually using her.  I wanted to play more with my chevron patterned stamp, so I decided to paper piece her outfit.  I noticed that I've been paper piecing a bit more lately.

Impress had their Anniversary Sale a couple weeks ago and my friend +Sheila Gay and I went shopping. Being a Pacific NorthWest native, I can't resist rain/water sentiment and stamps. {Hence the rain background, lol.} Here is the inside of my card.

I hope you have a great hump day!

SCRS Challenge #105 - Lemonade Challenge

Welcome to Week 2 of Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps Challenge #104!  We appreciate you taking the time to join our challenge and look forward to seeing your creations each week. You have until Sunday, 05/19/13 @ 9 PM PST to play along with our new challenge which is a lemonade challenge:

Our challenge is open to all players. Every 2 challenges (4 weeks) a random winner will be chosen, and the winner will receive a SCRS rubber stamp! In order to qualify for a prize, you must use a Sparkle Creations image on your creation. Most importantly, have fun! We can't wait to see your creations!

I found out last week that one of my best friends has been in and out the hospital.  This second pregnancy has been pretty rough for her and luckily, she's at 35 weeks...so even if her baby comes early, it's not waaaaaay too early.

Sadly, I'm not planning a trip to Portland any time soon.  But Shannon does want to come up and visit while she's still on maternity leave, so I'm excited to spend some time with her.  Until I get to see her and the new baby, I wanted to send her some love and encouragement.  Especially since she may end up in the hospital until she gives birth!

Though I typically like flavored lemonades, like in the picture, I thought yellow and green would be more cheery.  I guess it's more of a lemon lime combo, lol.

To play along in our challenge, upload a photo of your project and provide a direct link in the linky widget at the bottom of this SCRS post. If for any reason the linky isn't there, please add a link to your challenge creation in the comments below. If you use an online gallery (e.g. Splitcoast), please also use the keywords SCRSC104 and SparkleCreations (no spaces). If you have a Facebook account and are a fan of Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps, you can also upload there. Deadline for challenge #104 is Sunday, May 19th @ 9 PM PST.

I hope you all have a great Tuesday!
