Well Butter my Butt...lol...

Good morning blogland....how's your day going for you? Mine, busy...need to do a bunch of errands, hit the library up today and then back here to do my daily chores....but before I take off for the day, I wanted to share a card I had made for Kenny K's Challenge this week.......ENJOY!!!!!

Now how cute is this...lol...I thought this image was really cool to make another unusual Valentine's Day card....what do ya think? A little out in left field...lol.....

I used Cheyenne from Kenny K...the cactus from Graphics Factory....and the sentiment from Rodeo Randy Set from Boni Bleaux Designs....MS border punch...distress inks and I also used Krylon Antiquing paper spray....that's where the coffee looking paper comes from....I embossed it using Sizzix embossing folders and then just deeply sprayed the paper.....I just love how deep and rich looking it turned out..... here's the inside....isn't this little cupid (graphics factory) just the cutest....to me it looks like he's crashing through the sky to deliver a Valentine's....lol....

this is the left side...I used a rubber stamp from Sweet Pea...

this is the right side...I used one of those huge brads to add the greeting....

and here's what the spray looks like if you are interested...I purchased this from Mike's over in the spray paint section....there are other types of paper spray there as well...you ought to stop and check them out....play some...you might be surprised.....

Well that's all I have for today.....I hope you have a sunny day...hugs from Charm City....

OMG!!! Already!!!!!

Good Monday Morn blogland....I am sorry to report that the Steeler's did not take another championship......boohoo....but on a lighter note, Green Bay really worked for it so therefore deserve it...Good Job Packers....WTG!!! But we will see you next year...well I hope anyways....2 years in a row for my number one and two teams...now that would be a statistic for the future.....

Anywhoo, I have a really quick post today (forgot to post this yesterday) using some free images from Graphics Factory....all you have to do is sign up and you get to get free images...just make sure you read their policy.......ENJOY!!!!!!!!

right now I am so hooked on cowboy/rustic type images....do you have a special someone that totally forgets about Valentine's Day? Well why not send him a friendly reminder.....lol...the little cupid image is actually the colored image that I lightly colored in with distress inks...the saloon and cowboy are black and white images.....Recollections border punch...I hung some doo dads on a swirl paper clip on the side and some rhinestones at the top with the greeting....

well that's it for today...I'm sorry I haven't made trips to see everyone, but I will soon....very soon.....I miss everyone.....and I want to say a huge thank you for stopping in....Hugs from Charm City.....
