What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday!

My desk looks like a dumping ground this week! There has been a frenzy of creating going on these last few weeks. You can see all the goodies I just dumped there after our Stampin Up meeting last night. You can see some  Valentine goodies that never found a home...a couple cello bags full of Valentines cookies my daughter forgot to pick up. Hmmm....I even had to go eat a Valentine cookie so I would get a sugar rush---needed that rush in order to have the energy to un-bury my camera LOL! (good excuse as any right?)

Obviously...I unburied it so I could take these pictures. Seems a good straightening is in order so I can have room to create.

Abby...come get your cookies or they will find a good home tomorrow LOL!!! (like in my tummy!)

I made this fun card for my Sweetie's Dad's birthday today! Yes, he was a Valentine baby! How about that for a built in celebration!?   He is quite the fisherman and has done lots of guided fishing trips so I thought this Bugaboo image would be perfect for him.   I wish I would have used just a little bit different paper on the bottom of the card so you could see the fun cat tails better, but oh well...love it just the same.

If you want to pop over and check out Julia (woohoo girl) and her blog The Stamping Ground, you can see many different desks from around the world!

Bugaboo Valentine

 Ever notice how Cupid rhymes with stupid?

You gotta love Stella from Bugaboo Digi stamps. I made this using the SC371 sketch and some fun Bo Bunny papers. You can't tell, but the white strip has embossed hearts.  Super cute!

Happy Birthday Brother!

Friday is my brother Richard's birthday! With all the happenings going on over at Bugaboo, I had to print up Gus and color him up! He and Stella were rockstars this week for the Bugaboo 2nd Birthday Bash.

My brother is always so handy dandy and helping me out around my house with repairs or projects so I thought this image was perfect for him. This image is called Gus Tidbits-WTF.  I cut around the image and added it to the card on dimensionals.  I also added his birthdate on the calender and stamped  a birthday greeting on a hammer I cut out with my silhouette and chalked a bit. I might add some crystal effects to his glasses and call it good!

Hope you enjoy Gus as much as I do! Thanks for stopping by today...Happy Birthday Dinky!

I'll try to be nicer....

I saw this funny Bugaboo image and knew I had to make it into a card for my dear friend Janet. She works for H&R Block (a tax preparation company) and I know that as the April 15th tax deadline draws closer, she must be thinking something similar several times a day LOL!  Janet has this beautiful head of grey hair (very premature grey I must add)  so here she is, in all her glory.

I stuck the paper clips on the ribbon with crystal effects and also added some on Stella's glasses.

I used  this week's Sweet Sketch Wednesday. I tell you, this is one friendly group of stampers...you must give their challenge a try!

I hope you enjoyed a little of my "sarcastic" side...these digi's  just tickle me. I have several more to work up so watch for them in the future!

Age Is a State of MInd

Age Is Just A State Of Mind

One of my wonderful cyber stamping friends is celebrating her husbands 90th birthday this week. She started a campaign to see if John could receive 90 birthday cards in the mail! Isn't that just true love? Last count she posted was 75 cards and counting! Tomorrow is his big birthday party, but you must check out this post about John! If you are so inclined to send him a card, you can email Susie and she will send you their address. I can't think of a better reason to whip up a card and get it in the mail! 

I used this fun Bugaboo image with a funny sentiment inside as well. Stop in and wish John a Happy Birthday!
