SSC #25 - Tag!

Designed by Sprytebyrd on Sunday, September 27, 2009 7 stamps of approval
Time for another fun challenge from the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge!

This week's challenge is all about TAGS! Somewhere, somehow on your project, you must use a TAG (and some stamping of course!)

Our prize this week comes from our very own, Line!


My project definitely uses a few tags... well, I guess the whole thing is a tag! I've made this cute little mini-album/card using a tag template. I used chocolate colors and my chocolate stamps, thinking that this may need to go to one of my oh so sweet friends! It even has a little pocket on the back page to hold a little bite of chocolate!


Don't forget to visit the rest of the Design Team to see what they've made with Tags!

Emily & Daddy had some special time without baby brother and Mommy... but Emily wanted her fingernails and toenails painted.... so, never one to dissappoint his princess, Iain got to painting! (Mommy snuck in just long enough to take this photo, but then I was kicked out of the room!)

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

SSC #23 - Sketch

Designed by Sprytebyrd on Sunday, September 13, 2009 2 stamps of approval

Good morning, everyone!

It's time again for another wonderful challenge at Stamptacular Sunday! We have an awesome sketch for you to play with this week!

I decided to go a little "out of the box" for my project this week. I loved the sketch, but I wanted to make something other than a card for a change! So, I grabbed this package of JiffyPop (you know the kind, that you actually heat on the stovetop, and the foil on the top turns into a giant bubble that you pop to find all the yummy popcorn? Love those!) anyway.... I had the House Mouse image in my stash and thought it went great with my popcorn, so here we have it! One House Mouse popcorn-y birthday wish!Hope you like it! Be sure to visit the rest of the Design Team to see what they've created to share with you! Beauties.. I promise!

I look forward to seeing what you can do with our sketch! Have a great week, see you again next Stamptacular Sunday!

SSC #23 - Off the Wall Funny!

Designed by Sprytebyrd on Sunday, September 06, 2009 6 stamps of approval
Hello stampers!

This weeks challenge at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge is to make something FUNNY! Laugh out loud funny! Slap your knee funny!

Hmm... I have a pharmacist at work that jokes with me all the time, telling me that I "don't like to laugh"... mainly because I don't like the same comedy movies that he does! But every time he teases me, it makes me laugh, so he can't possibly be right! :)

But... I have to kinda chuckle, because when it came down to this particular challenge... I wasn't feeling all that funny! I just couldn't come up with anything! So, I went with an old Halloween standard and made up a little bag of Ghost Poop! I hope you like it, and I hope that it at least makes you smile, if not laugh out loud... Go visit the other girls on the Design Team - trust me, they're a lot funnier than I am!!(but, could you do me a favor? If you're in a really great mood, could you give me a good laugh, just to make me think my Ghost Poop really is funny?? Thanks!!)

Have a wonderful weekend - and a safe and happy holiday! Don't forget to fly your flag tomorrow!
