Merry Christmas Loonie's...and to Everyone!

Merry Christmas Everyone!  I hope you are all getting spoiled from Santa today!  And don't drink too much Eggnog, it has like 1 million calories! 

So just a quick post today as today is my Loonie Stampers Challenge and we Loonie's love our challenge and even Santa wasn't going to stop us from stamping!  I love the colours that Maria picked for us. Very elegant my friend! I used my new TSG stamps Garden of Friends that will be released this weekend.  LOVE IT!  So sit back and enjoy and go and see what my girls did for this!  HO HO HO!!!

Loads of Fun Hop for TSG!

I was so excited to finally get my new release stamps from There She Goes and participate in at least one of the hops!  And this set is so worth the wait...OMG!!  Wait till you see all the amazing stuff on this set!  I know you will fall in love with it like I have!  The sentiments in this set are so darn funny and are things I so would say on a daily basis and Jessica just has the knack to put those thoughts into stamps!

Did you come here from Sandra's blog?  Then you are on the right track as I am the last stop on the hop.  But if not, make sure you start at the beginning with Gretchen and leave some love on each of theTrendsetters blogs and then return to the TSG blog and add your name to Mr Linky.  A random winner will be chosen and announced on Saturday the 26th and will win this set!  Now who wouldn't want this set so I would suggest you start handing out the Love!

Prettie Wednesday!

Good Morning to you all!  I hope everyone has finished their shopping as Santa comes in only 2 more sleeps!  Today's challenge is brought to you by Jana and it was to make a love card (getting ready for Valentines Day) without red or pink!  I pulled out one of my first sets from Paper Pretties called Chinese Take Out.  Love this one!

I used the new My Minds Eye paper for Valentines day, it is to die for!  Make sure you pick some up when you see it as it won't stick around for long. 

So please play along and show us the love without red or pink. Go post your creation in the Weekly Challenge gallery by next Tuesday night and the winner will win $15 to spend at the store!  

 Next stop Kristy.  

Mojo Monday!

What did we use to do before cards?  Really...if you think back really hard what did you do?  Cards have literally taken over my life, not in a bad way but when I think back, what did I do before them? I mean, I had stuff to do and seemed always busy but honestly, I can't imagine not being able to create then blog about it!  And the people I have met because of it, truly amazing and can say I would totally consider them friends!  OMG, I am feeling a little verklempt right now!   

So time again for another great Mojo Monday sketch!  Now this one was hard and look how simple it is but OMG, talk about a brain fart!  I couldn't put one together I liked and then I made tons of mistakes (see sewing on card) then I didn't like the image or the sentiment or the colours I choose.  So finally I said 'Wendy, come on, it's just a card!" I know, I know, I can't believe I said it either!  But just sometimes I can't seem to get it to work out!  I hope you enjoy it more than I did this week!   Don't forget to visit the Mojo Monday blog and play along!  I would love to see what you did for this sketch!

TSG34 - Changing of the Season Sale

Happy Monday to you all!  Today is the official start of Winter but I can tell you, here in Calgary, Mother Nature isn't happy with us! We are getting more snow today and it looks miserable out!  So just to make all of us feel better and get ready for Christmas, which is 4 sleeps away, There She Goes is having a sale!  From today thru Sunday the 27th, these five sets will be 15% off their regular price.  Why not add a couple into your order on Saturday the 26th when the new sets are released?

Act of Kindness $18.70 (Reg. $22.00)
Spread Your Wings $12.75 (Reg. $15.00)

Here For You $18.70 (Reg. $22.00)
Branching Out $18.70 (Reg. $22.00)

Now onto the challenge for today.  We were to create a card with a non-holiday feeling but had to be a winter card and for bonus points, add a little sparkle!  That was tough as I have been in the holiday card mode for a month now so I had to reprogram my brain!  So I went with a little love theme and pulled out my favorite set Penguin Love. I hope you get my thought on this one!  LOL  Don't forget to upload your project with Mr Linky at the TSG blog and the winner will get $5.00 to spend at the store.

2 Loonie Stampers Challenge's!!

I was not able to do last weeks Loonie Challenge so you are getting two for the price of one today!  It's like a sale but without spending the money on those hot shoes!

Last weeks challenge was brought to you by the hot and beautiful Regan!  Her inspiration was from her daughter Lola as she has this cute dress with these colours on it so she thought why not!  I did struggle with this one but hey, gotta go for it or no cake! 

Here is the second Loonie challenge today and this one is from the also hot and beautiful, but a tad bit more crazy, Dee!    Now her challenge was to make a Christmas card but using non-Xmasy colours!  I can't get enough of these PI girls from MFT!  They are so darling and so fun to paper piece so I thought I could get a bit of inspiration from her and it wouldn't matter what colours I used, and I was right.  This paper is from Pebbles and it is the Lil' Buddy Collection and would be used for little boys cards so definitely not Christmas!   

Please don't forget to go and see what my other hot and gorgeous Loonies did for this weeks challenge!

Ola Dana! Cumpleaños Felices!

Which means Happy Birthday in Spanish (oh I so hope it does) as our little friend is in Cuba right now enjoying cerveza's at the swim-up bar!  So while she is down there getting a tan, we thought we would surprise her with a little birthday hop!  Now we aren't sure if she will even go on line to see how things are here at home but who would!!!  Hell, if it was me, I would be enjoying a little pool massage right now from Jose while he brings me margarita's by the bucket....oh to dream!  We hope you are having fun Dana!  Have a couple of those on us! 

Here is the list of the amazing ladies celebrating with her!  Please visit all the great blogs and then send Dana some birthday love too!

Another great sketch by the one and only Julee.  Where she comes up with these week after week I don't know but it truly amazes me!  This one was great to put together and I love all the scallop edges.  I used one of the new sets Thankful Accents on this card and I love all the little 'accents' this set has. So much you can do with it!  Don't you just love the new sentiments and the font, OMG! There is just something about a font that makes me all warm inside!  LOL

Enjoy and have a great day!

TSG33 - Layers!

If you get a card from me, you know how heavy it can be and it is all because of the layers!  My BFF's bug me all the time by asking if I pay extra postage because of the weight and my answer is 'none of your business'!  LOL!!  And being that I am Trendsetter of the Week at the TSG blog I got to pick the challenge so of course ... Layer up Girls!!!  Now there has to be a minimum of 3 layers on your project, and I will be counting don't you worry!  So go to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project with Mr Linky and use the keyword TSG33 if it is on another online gallery.  This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (Dec. 21st). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!

I used my favourite set Birdie Wishes from TSG Stamps! Gotta love it!  Now count my layers....1, 2, 3....10!!!  Boy, that one is gonna cost me at the post office! 

Have a great day!  Ciao!
