a quiet night? HA!

I got an order at work for a get well card-no biggie (so I thought)  and I figured I'd pick up a quick dinner, and then I can get down to the igloo and make the card. (it's always the "one" card that I have issues with) lol....so much for those plans...

I called home to see what my boyfriend wanted for dinner, only to find out we had to go back out... he had sliced his finger at work and needed some things to bandage it up *don't worry..NO PICTURES!  YUCK!!!

so by the time that was all said and done, we picked up some dinner on the way home and ate, then got him all bandaged up (he was bandaged prior-but needed a re-do)  so about 7ish I get down to the igloo....

This was the first one...I used the colour coach and went with this combination.  I like the die cut and framelit.  I had traced around the outside of the framelit to give me a shadow for the die cut.

Then I did this one.  There is something about these Button Buddies Stamps!!!  I used another colour combination: marina mist, perfect plum and rose red.  I had the marina mist ribbon and card stock-so voila!  I decided to punch the corners of the whisper white card stock, just to give it a little something....I think it came out well.

Long weekend of FUN!

I had a nice long weekend-and I thought I'd get a lot done lol.  well they say...best laid plans.....

I got a delivery on Friday-so that is always fun.  I love getting that box from SU lol  new things to play with!!!

I didn't expect to do much on Friday, since I was taking it easy as I was going to see Adam Ant that night in Philly.  He's my all time favourite musician!  I haven't seen him since 92 and he STILL has it!  My feet and knees didn't like me later that night and all day Saturday-but it was well worth it!!

On Sunday I made the order of 9 Halloween bags for a customer at work.  I think she'll be pleased with them.  Instead of using the paper handles, I used the new black/gray ribbon offered in the Holiday Mini catalogue.  I think it gives it a little extra punch :)

I managed some time down in the igloo on Monday.  One of the new stamp sets I got was Button Buddies-and it's a real cute set (with or without the added buttons).  I made 2: a flower vase and piggy.  I think they came out cute!

And this morning at the crack of stupid, I just had to make another one... lol  I used a SU note card this time.  and my pink was blushing bride (retired in-colour)  I think it is cute!
