Unscripted!
Even though I'm on somewhat of a craft-blog sabbatical, I thought I'd take a few minutes to complete an Unscripted Sketch challenge. This card was made with a particular friend in mind:
Until next time...

Football Season begins...
Just a couple more cards I made while my gang wached the Bronco's play a pre season game. 
This first one uses all CTMH product, except for the sparkles.
Brads, paper and ribbon are CTMH but the flower is a random stamp that I had.

CPS 131
I have so many "favorite" paper packs from CTMH... and Floral Tapestry is certainly on the ever growing list. I combined the Floral Tapestry paper with a cute Basic Grey die cut to make this quick and easy card. I used the CPS 131 Sketch for the design.

Letter to my friend...mojo 95
It was somewhat of an emotionally exhausting day today, but I still scrounged up a bit of the muse to complete the Mojo 95 challenge. Now I'm going to keep myself awake for another hour until I need to go pick kids up from the bowling alley. I should use the time to clean my craft room but I think I'll watch a movie with Elizabeth instead :-)
Thanks for stopping by...hope you have a fabulous week...and good friends to share the ups and downs with. Marie with a :-)

CPS 114
What's a girl to do when she has an hour to spare before family movie time and a craving for sparkles and flowers (after nothing but masculine layouts?) Head for the CPS Sketch 114 of course! Here's two takes on this week's sketch.
I never would have gravitated to this dog stamp set by gel-a-tins on my own, but a while back I let the girls pick out a stamp set at Archivers using our 30 percent off coupon and this is what they chose. They haven't used it yet, so I decided to play with it.
Hope you had a wonderful Son-day! We had a delightful afternoon lunch with two couples from church and two of Matthew's friends. Now I'm off to enjoy a movie with my gang.

more cards
Today was one of those days where nothing went as I had planned. That includes crafting...I really wanted to start working on a layout (and even printed some pictures!) but after completing a PCP challenge, I really liked the colors I was working with and made several more cards. Now I really need to get myself to bed...the time change will be a challenge for me!
Happy Sunday to you!
Happy Sunday to you!

Friend pop-out card
Thursday, March 5, 2009
It was a pretty busy day, but I really did manage to get this card made before midnight...I just had to recharge my camera battery before I could post it!
Today was our homeschool co-op. I teach a middle school writing class and I love it. I have a wonderful bunch of kids and they make it fun. Lately they have been really enthusiastic about writing which makes my heart happy :-)After school, the older two girls talked me into dropping them off at the mall so they could shop for Elizabeth's birthday. While they were shopping, I went and got a much needed haircut.
Then Matthew had his first swim meet. We missed his first heat, which he said he placed last in - it was the 2 meter (8 laps?) We were there for the second one though; he swam the backstroke and would have placed first except he didn't know that he couldn't turn around to touch the end when they finished (they could do that when turning and finishing the lap but not at the end.) So that disqualified him :-( . Still, his team won :-). I thought once my kids got older I would stop getting so teary eye when watching them in an activity such as sports or in a play or even singing in the youth choir...but nope, I'm still just as teary as ever!
Tonight Scott and I watched a 2 hour and 40 minute movie with Jay and Alyssa. It was called The Changeling and it was a pretty sad movie...and a true story. In between dinner and the start of the movie I managed to do most of the work on this card, using Life Delights paper pack, and You Are Beautiful stamp set, as well as a sentiment from the Priceless Love stamp set. I also used the watercolor brush.
I am soooooo hoping to get a layout done this weekend in between a Friday night debate for Michelle, and a Saturday birthday gathering for Elizabeth and church on Sunday. Plus I have a dozen thank you cards to make. (And then there's those little details of feeding my family and laundry...)
Wishing you a wonderful day,
Marie with a :-)

CPS Sketch 105
I have been wanting to do a CPS challenge ever since I've seen some of Aaron's work (http://www.aaronsbooth32.blogspot.com/) but today was the first time I actually completed it. Here's what I came up with:
Check out other samples at http://cardpositioningsystems.blogspot.com/2009/01/cps-98-sponsored-by-sweet-n-sassy.html
CTMH Products: Tulip cardstock and ink, red sparkles, silhouette paper, friendship word puzzle, decorative dainties stamp set. I also used my cuttlebug for the die cut. Now I just need to figure out how to post it for the challenge...
