Whiff of Joy Challenge 73!

I’m super late with this, I’m so so sorry Bev and Donalda! I had my wisdom teeth on my left side pulled on Monday, unexpectedly. Since I will no longer have insurance I’ve made dr appointments and dentists appointments, using up as much insurance as I can lol! My teeth, or I shall say gums will not stop bleeding. The dentist had to cut my bottom one out because all the tools (she literally hammered my tooth) were not working. So it’s been a wonderful 2 days. I haven’t been able to eat much because of it, well in general actually stress does wonders for my figure, although now I’m probably under 115…

Hello Everyone, Happy Wednesday! Hope your week is going by fast. mine sure is flying by. I have my Class with the Fussy and Fancy Founders this week so I’m preparing for that. I’ve come up with the cutest idea, and I’m really excited to share it with my friends! I never post a project before the class because all of them visit my blog and I do not want to spoil the excitement of pulling it out of my bag and hearing the Ohhhhhh Ahhhhhhhh’s lol. So I will have a FUN project and tutorial to share with you all next week.

If you haven’t noticed I’ve decided to open back up my Etsy shop, since my significant other is loosing his job mid May I decided to try to sell my creations for a little extra cash, so check it out if you are interested in my creations. there’s a link in my sidebar.

No on to my card and this week’s Challenge over at Whiff of Joy’s Challenge Blog. This week there is a beautiful sketch by the talented Bev. I actually traced the oval nestie leaving Willow’s hair and dress at the bottom and cut out the oval, as if she was in front of the oval nestie. I was trying something new :) Hope you can come play along, maybe your card will be one of our top 3.

My new Magnolia Stamps are here!!!

Well I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! Mine not so great. I have just started to get happy about settling in my new place, and I really love it! Then my significant other gets a call from his boss saying he is going to be laid off in 2 months, and just wanted to give him a heads up, which we much appreciate. I just don’t get life. How come I’m not allowed to be happy? It’s always something!!

On a brighter note, My awesome, amazing Magnolia-licious Design Team package came yesterday! I LOVE them!!! Thanks a whole bunch Diana. They are all so cute I just kept looking at them alllllllllll day! It was better than Christmas!

I made this card for my friend Sherri and her husband Kenny, today is their Anniversary. Which gave me a perfect reason to ink up my new Bride and Groom stamp! Her favorite color is pink, like mine. Sherri bought me some cute little bows and flowers so I promised to use the blows on her card. Hope she likes it!

Hope you all have a wonderful evening, and rest of the weekend!
