Pick a Card, Any Card

Here are a few cards that I have made recently, and a few old ones that I jazzed up a bit. Not my best, but eh, probably not my worst either. ;-)

Slightly Star Struck

I met Al Franken at the Women's Night Out Expo. Sure, he's our Senator, but I was really excited because of his time on Saturday Night Live.
When Creative Scrappers had their One Hour Contest tonight featuring stars, I thought this would make a great LO!

Holy Thickers, Batman!

Kimmy sent me over to Denise's blog. She has so many Thickers she's giving some away! Go and check that giveaway out!

The Nest-September Contest!

Come join us at The Nest! Angi just posted the September Contest and I think it's AWESOME!

Here's what she said:
"Ok, September is a celebration of our Labors.. so .. Id love it if you would base your layout on just that.. "The fruits of your labor"... "labor pains"... anything to do with labor!

Follow these rules as well!

L is for lace... use lace {material or paper} on your layout
A is for aged... distress somewhere on your layout
B is for buttons... use a button or two on your layout
O is for orange... use the color orange somewhere on your layout
R is for reminisce ... Journal your memories on your layout

All layouts are due to be emailed to me by midnight Sept. 30th. @ jinxi666@yahoo.com
A vote will be put up on October 1st!

Good Luck.. you are playing for a prize valued at $20.00 from YOUR favorite scrap company!!!!"

Join us on the forum and show us your work!

Random Things

I was trying to clear up some hard drive space so I was going through my photos to archive and delete. I found a couple things that I don't think I've posted. So here are some journaling spots for a swap, and a Secret Sister clue card.

Thanks For Letting Us Drop In

Last week when my Dad was visiting, we went to lunch and then stopped a few places...including dropping in on my coworker friend, Ginny, and B&B owner friend, Bobbi. Unannounced! Well, I called Ginny from her driveway. I knew Bobbi's place was probably full, and therefore home. :-) I was right on both counts. To show my appreciation, I made them each a card today. Can you see the blog title in the orange "smoke"?
