Chews to Party!











I'm using this set for the 3rd time this month!  I think it's funny how it's been in my drawer unused for over a year & now I have reasons to use it 3 times.  The current CAS on Friday challenge is ~Birthday~ . This is for a girl who's turning 17 & she loves goats, even raises goats.

Stamps: Old Goat Art Impressions
c/s: white, Kraft, pink
copics, birthday ef

Until next time!

Happy Birthday!



This card went in a completely different direction than when I first started. Haha!!  Isn't that the way it goes sometimes!    The current House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge ~ I'm going with the anything goes option.   For the Card Concept challenge, I was inspired by the cupcakes.  I went with a clean & layered card.  And today's Inspiration Challenge on SCS took us to the Sherwin-Williams website.  I was inspired by THIS photo. 


Stamps: Make a Wish House Mouse
c/s: white, pink, gray

Double Challenge Card












I made this for the 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge ~ Anything Critter Goes and the Pile It On Challenge ~ Land Animals

Since life wasn't busy enough, we've added another element to our lives... we've added an archery team.  I needed a couple of cards for kids on the team, I'm realizing that I don't have many girly girl type of stamps & I need some sentiments.  I could type them out on the computer, but the reality is that isn't going to happen very often.  I like having the actual stamps.  On such short notice, this was the girliest I could come up with on such short notice!  LOL  

Stamps: Odd Dog Balloon Lili of the Valley
c/s: white, kraft, pink
copics, glossy accents

Until next time!

CAS516 Motivational Goat








I'm the hostess this week for the Clean & Simple Monday Challenge at SCS.  I'm a big football fan, it doesn't matter if it's college or NFL.  I watch more football than any of my guys do.  Even though my team didn't make it to the divisional rounds, I watched as many of the games as I possibly could this weekend.  My challenge was to include some round things on your project.

My card uses one of the goats from the Art Impressions set ~ Old Goat~  when I bought it a couple of years ago, I got it on sale.  It was one of those, "I'm going to buy this for one card & I'm okay with that" type of purchases.  This is the second time I'm using it this month & I will use it again this month & once next month!  LOL

Stamps: Old Goat Art Impressions
c/s: white, brown
copics, Seeing Spots ef, circle nestabilities

Until next time!
