Crafting Vicky

Goodmorning everyone!  Hope you all had a good week!  I'm sooooo very happy that it's the WEEKEND!!!!  And I'm going to be hoping around since Creepmas is starting with Rick St-Denis's team.  I  love his images so very much. This being said of course I just had to register to his newsletter which you can join by sending him an e-mail you can find the information here .  On the last newsletter we go a wonderful discount code that I took full advantage of!  I purchased over 30 digis :D  oh yeah... I'm a bit compulsive... lol but at least it's not drugs... it's crafting. With the newsletter also came the digi that will be offered today and the opportunity to craft something earlier for a special challenge.  So Thursday night, my hubby was gone, the kids were in bed, I just had to go and craft something with this awesome digi. Here's my take on this. I decided to go with the big New year party look :D  So you have the glasses in all kinds of dir

Good evening everyone!  Well it's evening here anyway... and it's getting dark earlier and earlier... I like the change of colors of the leaves but hate having to pick them up and most of all to know that winter is coming at our doorstep! I've been meaning to play at Smudgy antics all week!!!!!  And I'm at a few hours of the challenge expiration. I thought I had lots of time today but since my hubby is gone to his dad's house I had to do all of the cleaning and grocery shopping by myself... as well as the cooking and preparation for the week.  And to make matters worse, I started a laundry load to find out my 1 year old washing machine was giving me this god awful code.  Since hubby dearest was away (and why do these things happen when I'm alone?!?) I did some research on the net to find out that it's possibly the electronic board!!!!  YIKES that sounded expensive but most of all I had to wash the clothes!!!!  So I followed one of the tricks mentioned wh

Ohhhh today was so much fun!!!!!  1st I did the taxi for my daughter who volunteers at a residence for older people.  And while she was there I went shopping to a little local card stock place that is really close to there.  They had a 25% sale on everything!!!!!!  WOOOHOOOO... well it was costly... but shhhhh don't tell my hubby.  It's a good thing he never looks at my blog lol.  I bought a bunch of wonderful dies and 2 cuuuuuute little house mouse stamps that will be perfect for gift labels! Then I had the wonderful visit of my dad and step-mom.  I shared a bunch of new ideas with her for cards and crafts.  We share that in common.  So sad that she's 2 hours away.  We would really really have fun together!  She thinks my craft room looks like a store... lol I still think there's a ton of stuff that I would like so it's really funny.  But I got great ideas for gifts for her b-day and Christmas coming up.  Can't mention it her 'cause she could be reading t

This afternoon I went digi shopping.  I had seen a one of my fellow DT Nataliya from OSAAT use a digi from Rick St-Denis and fell in looooove!  And yesterday and today he had a special if you could guess the proper discount code... well... I DID!!!!!  And I went SHOPPING!  It really helps with the cold lol and I'm sticking to that excuse! So of course I just couldn't resist... I just HAD to play with one of his images.  I found a few challenges that I could participate in and there I went creating! I decide to go the humor route... let me explain.  I sometimes wish I could see what my hubby is thinking... so when I saw this genie... I thought this would be a wonderful wish... and I got my answer with my sentiment rofl. The digi that I used for this card is DJJIN. To make this card I used paper from Authentique - Glowing and some left overs from another project.  I went with a white, black and green theme because I wanted to enter a challenge that was black + white
