Always be your own kind of beautiful

Hey y'all!
Hope all is well?!...

Where oh where has the time gone?!...I've had quite the past weekend, as well as this week. A lot going on with my family and a trip to the ER with my oldest boy. Then doctor appointments today and next week as well. Things are just plain busy. And let's not forget Thanksgiving! I still need to get a few more things for that as well. At this rate, I'll be running around like a chicken with it's head cut off before the holidays are even here! lol

Anyhow, I do have a card to share. Yay!

I made this for the current Honeybee Stamps Challenge on Facebook and thought I'd share it here, too. :)

Well, that's all for me.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day and see you soon!

P.S.
So y'all know, my son will be okay. He is slowly but surely getting better.
Long story short, he got stung by A bee or so I thought. The next day with his foot swollen, I looked more at it and found 3 more stingers in his foot. I thought the swelling would go down after getting the rest of the stingers/sacks out. Comes the next day his foot was more swollen and turning a dark red and spreading. So off to the ER we went. Ends up he was having a moderate reaction, as well as an infection. He is on antibiotics, which are helping but very nasty tasting (according to him). He is sure to let me know every time just how nasty it tastes. lol Though I can't blame him, no matter how old you are antibiotics are never fun, right?!...

My friend

Hey y'all! Happy Monday!
Hope your week is starting off right?!...

Today, I'm swinging in to share a card I made for the current CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.

Such a pretty inspiration photo, yeah?!...

I used a woodgrain embossing folder for my background, which I know it may be somewhat hard to see but it is there, I promise you. ;) After, I already has a panel that I made using some distress oxide inks but never used (until now) for my leaves. Isn't it nice when you can finally make use of something that you might have had sitting around...forever!?! heehee. For the veins on my leaves I used a gold glitter cardstock. Then I simply added them to my woodgrain card panel. To finish things off, I added a sentiment to a strip of cardstock and placed it slightly over my leaves. Then a touch of jewels. Easy peasy, right?!...

Let's have a latte

Hey y'all!
Hope all is well?!...

Just a sweet and short post, today. I saw the current Honey Bee Stamps challenge on Facebook and thought I'd enter in. :)

The challenge is all about black and white plus a pop of color. I went with a 'pop' of coffee using some of their tiny bubbles embellishments. Unfortunately I didn't have the coffee bean ones so I made do with what I had on hand. And of course, I can't even remember the name of the ones I used. Go figure, right?! lol ;)

Well, that's all for me today.

Enjoy your day and wee you soon!

You are my greatest adventure

Hey y'all!
Happy Saturday! Hope all is well?!...

Today, I'm swinging in to share a card for the current October Pinkfresh Studio Challenge.

As you can see, I kept things pretty simple. I did a little stenciling for my background in a light blue ink and then simply added all my colored die cut pieces. And to top things off, some pearl white gems and a touch of twine. Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, that's all for me today. 

Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy your day! :)
