Oh SCRAP!!!

Happy Terrifically Thrilling Thursday!!

Today is a great day for several reason!  

One reason, I've been trying to find my Turkey Day After Dinner invitations that I made weeks ago - I was telling Shelly last night when I talked to her that I felt like a crazy lady and that my passport was stamped for a one way trip to crazy town.

Well, last night - the seas parted and WAA HOO - I found (and MAILED) the Turkey Day invitations....Actually, my WONDERFULLY hubby located them!  =)

YAH HOO!!!

A second reason today is great - 

It's a Challenge Thursday and the design team whipped up some AWESOME Noel Christmas cards using this FABULOUS Noel image!

AND our OH SCRAP Challenge

Can you believe we're breaking out the Christmas Cards already?  It seems like just yesterday it was sweltering hot and July!  

The OH SCRAP challenge?  Other than the base of your card, use SCRAPS to make your amazing creations.

Ready for a little inspiration?

OH SCRAP - here we go!

So, wanna play along with our  OH SCRAP challenge??

Get out your SCRAPS  and get creating!

Happy Craftin'!

ROLLIN' with Shelly's Girlies!

HOW-DY - Min checkin' in to say 'Howdy' - yah, guess I already said Howdy, huh?  =)

So I thought I'd share with you a little pumpkin' carvin' the hubbster and I did for Halloween.  Yep, we dug into the goopy pumpkin guts, cleaned out the pumpkin and created some super fun and amazing works of art that are now starting to get all wrinkly and shrinky.  

However, in their glory (and on Halloween night) they looked magnificent! (The Baby's 1st Halloween was for our friends who live next door - our little nephew was celebrating his very first Halloween - so it was only fitting!)

Okay, so now that I've TOTALLY gotten off topic - I think I remember a teacher in junior high remind us all about STAYING ON TOPIC - yep, didn't fair so well there, did I?  =)  

Okay, so back ON topic!  

Have you joined in our ROLL 'EM challenge yet?  If you're asking yourself, "Roll 'em?  What in the world is she talking about?"  Well, that means you OBVIOUSLY HAVEN'T joined us yet!!

So, to peak your interest, I thought I'd share you with the Fabulous Fall Fence (with an added Pumpkin' that I love) all from Shelly's Images Store!

So, be inspired, hit the Shelly's Images Store, Stay on Topic and join us for our Roll' Em' Challenge - you could be our Winner this week, but you can't win if you don't play!

Hugs & Happy Days!

TTT Challenge - Roll 'Em

Happy Thursday friends!  

We are ready to start a brand new challenge and we hope you will join in and play along with our fun "Roll 'Em" challenge.  

This week our amazing Design Team is featuring "Fall Fence" 

Marianne "rolled" 3 for Bling, 6 for Embossing, and 8 for 3 Buttons. 

I just love this project and especially like the twine tied to the side with the pretty embellishment.

Priscilla rolled 1 for Flowers, 4 for Ribbon, and 7 for Digital Image.

I love how Priscilla tore the edges of the paper around the letters.  

Jackie rolled 4 for Ribbon, 7 for Digital Image, and 8 for 3 Buttons. 

I love the way the digi stamp is framed by the beautiful sparkly leaves.  And Jackie's coloring on the image is fantastic!

Miranda rolled  0 for Kraft, 5 for Distressing, and 8 for 3 buttons.

I love the shape of this project and absolutely love how Miranda shows a completely different way to color the image.  Such a soft and water color look.

 

Darlene rolled 1 for flowers, 2 for using at least 2 layers, and 7 for Digital Image

The flowers in pretty Fall colors really finish off this project perfectly.  And I love the sparkly centers.  

And last is my project.  I promised to share the project I made using my tutorial that I shared on Tuesday.  If you missed my "Squash Card" tutorial you can find it here.  The only change I made from the tutorial is that I folded down the front part of the square to reveal the inside folds.

I rolled 3 for Bling, 4 for Ribbon, and 7 for Digi Image.

And a photo to show the card folded open. 

Now it's your turn!!!!  Just use the Random Number Generator in our sidebar.  Type in 0 for the minimum number and 9 for the maximum number.  Click "Generate" and make note of your numbers.  Repeat the process two more times so you end up with 3 numbers.  Don't cheat!!!  You will ruin all the fun!  It really is so fun to see what you can create with three random ingredients.

Roll 'em 

(Use the Random.org number generator to pick your products, roll at least three times)

1 – Use FLOWERS of some sort

2 – 2 Layers

3 – BLING
