Oh..to be organized..

Sometimes I wish I was more organized than I am..but, I think it's too late..the boat has sailed on that one..But, I still try...and lately I have been trying to get my little craft room organized..from the move..Sheesh..I have found stuff I completely forgot I had..Well..it's still a work in progress and probably always will be..because I will want to change it around...I wish I could just shut my eyes and wish it all done...

I have been making a few cards..Thanks to doing some weekly challenges on here: http://simplyscrapping.ning.com/...  you should check out their weekly challenges..for both scrapbookers and cardmakers..I have been doing their one on Card Corner.. http://simplyscrapping.ning.com/group/cardchatchallengecorner

Each Wednesday there is a new challenge for you to do..I just started this in July and I am on week 3..our first challenge was to make a card using a sketch..and here is what I a came up with..

I used my Cricut cart In a Child's Year to cut out the images..the paper is mostly Martha Stewart..I have always loved black sillouttes and just love this cart that makes it allot easier than cutting all this out by hand..

My 2nd challenge was to Rock and Roll..with a stamp on an ink pad..A great technique..and this is my card...

I love, love this paper that I recieved in a secret sister swap on the same group..it's 7gypsies zanzibar scrapbook pack.  

Our last challeneg was to use a sentimant and the focal point of our card and here is my take..

I had something else in mind when I started this but I have to say I am happy with the end result...

Am looking forward to the next challenge..if you have time and am up for challenge make sure you check it out...

Since my last post we have went on Vacation..to Beautiful state of Colorado...we were gone less than a week but saw so much..there is so much to see...but, the best part is that I got to meet my friend Renee...Renee and I became friends on a Scrapbooking site that is nolonger..it may not be around any more (or in the same form it was anyway)..but we remained friends and have shared allot together through the net and phonecalls so it was great getting to meet here and her 2 "lil men"...Here we are...

After sadly we left her house we were off to see the mountains..

It was all so beautiful...and I took well over 500 photos..ooo...do I ever love the didgital age in photography...

Is it hot where you are??? It is here..90's and heat index up past 100...I don't complain about heat because I hate the winter and cold months..but...I am glad we have a/c....

Guess, that's enough of my ramblings for this time..hope you are staying cool and enjoying summer...

Thanks for stopping by...

Hugs
