Jazzy Inspirations #13


Good afternoon everyone! Meow, Meow...I'm a Jazz Cat again this week! Our colors to use from a Paul Chambers CD were: dark green, dark purple, white, and gray. Come and join in over at Jazzy Inspirations. Tenia will soon be have call-outs for design team members!

(Personal stuff here...click away if you wish) Daughter and I are very bummed out...we were not able to pick up the kitten this morning. We had filled out application at the shelter yesterday, and they said to call before coming in to see if it was approved. Well, I called but no answer, so we headed on in (25-30 min. drive). Get there and they say application not approved because all current animals in household not current on shots. They said the vets said '08 for the cat and '03 for the dog. Wrong-O!!!! The cat was just there two months ago (figured out later they had the date for a different cat...who then ran away). Um, we know the dog has been there since '03 because there is dog hair in our current truck, which wasn't even built in '03! (I'm a bit peeved). Now granted, we can't remember if it was last summer or summer '07 that we took her in....but still, it hasn't been that long!! If the shelter had answered the phone, I would of had time to run the dog to the vets this morning for shots (close by) and made it to the shelter before they closed at noon. So, at one on Monday we'll run to the vets, run dog home, then go to the shelter and hope the kitten DD has her heart set on is still there. If it weren't for that, we'd find a free one, but really wanted to "save" animal from the shelter. Also wish that when we were there yesterday they would have said they check current rabies shots, as I would have called the vets myself to make sure. I know I tossed some of those "record" papers from the vets when I last cleaned on my desk...never thought we'd need them for something. Okay....rant is over...thanks for listening!! DD has been waiting since March to get a kitten, and the extra days are tough for her. We had said she had to wait until school was out for the summer so it wouldn't be home alone.

Friends...


If friends were flowers...I'd pick you! This card is a total case of one I found during PTI's blog hop the other night! Go see it at Stamping in the Light. I wish I had had some brown buttons for mine, but there was only one to be found! All PTI materials except for the ink and sentiment.


Tomorrow is the last day at school for students, then us teachers have an "official" 1/2 day on Friday. Most of us won't be done at that point and will spend the afternoon, and Monday....and Tuesday....

Happy crafting!

Stopping by...



...to say, "Hello" with this cute little card! I apologize to those of you signed up in Reader...the last two times I've tried to make a post, I've hit return right after typing the title, and it's posted rather than going down to my "composition" box!



This shape card was easy to make...I need to do more of these! I used my largest circle scallop nestabilities with a bit of the edge above the top to leave the fold. The DP covers the cardstock and I decided to not trim the "fold" area, but leave it whole. Studio G stamps colored with markers and a touch of pencil for the flower buds, PTI sentiment.


Modern Sugar Blvd Grand Opening!! Tomorrow at 12 noon mountain time. There will be releases all week, contests, freebies, and more!! Be sure to check out the store site and visit these ladies who have made some awesome stuff with the releases for tomorrow (I'm not sure if they'll be showing their full projects today or Monday...just keep peaking!)

Happy Spring CAS


Yes, happy spring because more snow is on the way!! Snow is supposed to start after midnight, and then maybe an inch tomorrow. Here I was thinking about putting my winter coat away!

This was made awhile ago for a CAS sketch challenge over on StampTV. I used Studio G stamps, and embossed a rectangle with a nestability. I stamped off to get the lighter shade of purple and green.

Happy crafting!

Mojo #79


It's been awhile since I've participated in a Mojo Monday challenge, and I decided I really should this week since I do have the little widget on the side of the blog! (Plus, this looked like an easy one for me!) It's been DD's spring break this week, and we went to Indy yesterday so she could use a gift card to a book store. We stopped in at an Archiver's & Michael's...never had been in either. Archiver's had lots of Basic Grey 6X6 pads which I just love, so I stocked up on, um, uh....several! I figured...we are only this way once or twice a year, so get 'em now! I made use of new paper and stamps in today's card!

New Challenge Blogs: Wanted to let you know about a couple of new challenge blogs that will soon be starting up. The first is Simon Says Challenge> sponsored by the store Simon Says Stamp. Their first challenge will be issued on April 1st (no fooling!!). The second challenge blog is Whimsy Stamps Challenges. Denise has a call out right now for Challenge DT members and the first challenge will be April 13th.

Happy Stamping!

Fast Invite




Last night I quickly made a "fast, easy, and easy to mass reproduce" invitation for a Studio G challenge on Papercraft Planet. Imagine my surprise when I logged in the morning and found out I was the winner!!! I'll have a surprise arriving in the mail hopefully within a week! I used Sara's Perfect Match Color combo for this week...Aqua Mist, Spring Rain, and True Black. I really wanted to use all PTI products, but with the limited amount of stamps I have from them, going with something different worked best for me this week. Paper and ribbon are PTI, stamps and ink Studio G.




Look who was trying to "help" when I was setting up to take a picture...the real life Critter the Cat! I had tried some pictures last night, but they weren't so great. The sun was shining today, and often I'll put the photo cube in a "sun spot" for the picture taking. Naturally, Critter loves to lay in sun spots! I still had to mess with the color and saturation settings quite a bit to have the aqua mist look different than the ribbon.

Happy crafting!
