This week's challenge at

Use Your Stuff

is to create something based on this pic:

So here is what I did

This was taken after my sweet grandson was diagnosed with pneumonia.

Not often he slows down and stays in one place,

but Grandma got some cuddle time for once.

And he is all better now.

Not A Christams Card

This is NOT a Christmas card.

But someone

(with a sense of humour)

 WILL get it as if it were.

You can blame 

the

Jingle Belles 

for this card

They said, and I quote:

So this fortnight we're making cards for our 

friends who don't necessarily celebrate Christmas.

And I have friends who don't, but they certainly live in the 

Canadian Winder.

Surviving that is cause for celebration if you ask me!

Nuff Said,

 Jingle Belles

Challenge #190

It's VACATION time at

The Order of the Opus Gluei

Yessirree!

We are challenging you for Challenge #190

to create something with the theme of

VACATIONS!

The sky is the limit.

Where would you go if you copuld go anywhere?

Or where were you last?

Or make a card for a friend who is leaving on a trip...

Or, or, or,....

Yup, that's where I would LIKE to be...

This is where I was last.

And this, my friends, is where I will be as soon as summer returns.

It does that here.  

It's like Mother Nature has indigestion and once she is feeling better,

we are back to normal.

Where do YOU vacation?

Link us with us at

The Order of the Opus Gluei

and we'll stop by and say HI!

Frames and Roses

Sounds kind of like "Guns and Roses", doesn't it?

I am feeling fairly irreverent today.

So the piece I created is for both

Sunday Postcard Art (theme: Roses)

and

Take A Word (theme: Frames)

Sorry if I have offended anyone...

No, I'm not.

That's a lie.

Find the joy in everything.

Very Vintage

Who says Vintage has to be quite muted tones?

Not Electra, no sirree!

I have this sheet of  happy girls called

"Costume Crazy"

from

Gecko Galz 

and it just begged to be made into a fat ATC to inspire you to enter the

Gecko Galz

   Very Vintage challenge

And since I added some stickers by Amy Tangerine and

some pinwheels fron Mikey's,

it also qualifies for this week's challenge over at

Use Your Stuff

How cool is that?

The background papers are from Gecko Galz, too,

their "Strawberry Fields" Paper set.

Check out the

  Very Vintage challenge!

NOw if you will excuse me, I need to go

comb the feathers on my t-shirt.

Electra,  over and out.

Black and White and Red

So I was driving through the nountains a couple of weeks ago,

and I see this herd of Bighorn Sheep

muching on the berries in the trees,

along the main road into a small town.

Of course there were about a gazillion tourists

taking pictures

(just like me)

I thought it was very cool.

Must have been snack time!

I made this for

Take A Word
