MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE

2012-02-27T09:27:00.000-08:00

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE WITH WHIMSY IRISH ELEMENTS

How is everyone this Monday? Of course it's another start of a new week and it's also going to be the beginning of March. Two things that I know off the top of my head is St Patrick's Day is coming and so is my oldest son's birthday. He really makes me feel old. He will be turning 23. It doesn't seem possible. I call hime my gunie pig because everything that I started learning about being a mother was with his help. Now he's the one giving me the chance to be a great grandmother to my first grandchild. It's been our inside joke since I can remember. It's nice to have this bond with him. I'm so glad that I'm close to him and my other children. I never really had that and was determined that my kids knew they were loved. I really rambled on about that. Let's get to our feature this week.

Our feature this week is Whimsy Irish Elements. These were designed by Cupcake Cuties. These digital stamps can be used for anything. I know there are some people out there that don't believe in St Patrick's Day but these stamps can be used for other purposes. You can use the card that I made this week for alot of things. Here is the picture of the set so you can interpret it any way that you would like.

The little girls could be used for anything. I think they are so adorable. I'm glad that we were able to feature them for you.

Don't forget to enter the challenge that is still going on until March 2nd at midnight. All you have to do is get a project made with flowers. Who doesn't love using flowers on their project? I'm wishing you all Good Luck with this one.

Here is my card that I made with the Whimsy Irish Elements:

The card is a little darker but for some reason the picture wouldn't come out to show you that. I spent alot of time trying to get it to but had no luck. I think this summer I'm ging to take some photography class to see what I'm doing wrong. I would have loved to become a photographer but my life didnt turn out that way. I love to take pictures.

I hope you enjoyed this week's feature. The other Design Team Members made beautiful projects also so if you would like to leave them a little love that would be great. I hope you have a wonderful week and see ya next week.

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #96

Good Morning!! I hope you are doing great and seeing the sun shining. At least it's real sunny here but very cold. My dog is under blankets and she was only outside for a couple of minutes. She even had her sweater on and still was shivering. My dog has a skin condition that makes her scratch and she has lost most of her fur. She has to have clothes on at all times. Sometimes I feel like I have another baby but I love her to pieces.

This week the Design Team worked with Shelly's Images. This is the first time I worked with her digital stamps but I'm glad I had the chance. She has some wonderful images to work with. With her stamps our theme that we used this week is "People". I picked something that was out of the

A $9.oo Voucher to

Shelly's Images Store

to purchase Digital Stamps of

The winner's Choice

The Digital Stamp that I used was called Round Up. This was a cowboy on his horse. I love horses. I would love to have a fame so I could have one. I even asked my Dad who has 10 acres if I could board one there and I got a big NO. Well here is my card I made for the people theme. i call it "Cowboy Up"

This was fun to do. I''m glad I found all this cowboy stuff to go with it. Since the theme was People please take a look at the other Design Teams Blogs to see the people that they chose to use. I wish you all Good Luck with your projects and Have a Wonderful Week and I will see you next Sunday.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE WEEK #122

Good Morning to everyone. Are you ready for this week? I know that I have a lot to do and hope to get it all done. I guess this is part of someones long weekend. I know that I get to have my daughter home today. She is excited not to go to school this week. Although she will probably do a lot of texting. I can say that is much better then having the phone ring all the time. They have so much technology these days and I'm still trying to keep up on it all. My daughter knows more about my cell phone then I do. They have no idea how easy they have it these days.

This week's challenge was a fun one for me. My daughter is actually trying to take it and put it in her room. I'm glad that she like the stuff I do. She even put one of my cards on her Christmas list last year. She did get it. It was one of the cards that I loved but I love her, so she received it. I'm talking (LOL) to much. Let's us move on.

The digital stamps that we used this week is by Sanqunetti Designs and the name of the set is Blooming Friendship. Their are several designs with this digital stamp set and they are beautiful. I love to make things with flowers and this was a great set for me. Here is a look at this set.

Here is the challenge for the next two weeks. Make a project with some flowers. You have until March 2nd at midnight to get your projects in. This is a really easy project so I hope to see many of your projects. You just need to go to My Grafico Challenge Blog to enter your project and you can also see the rules there.

Here Is the project that I made this week. I didn't go with a card but a pot of flowers.

I hope this gave you a little inspiration to think out of the box. The Design Team made different projects so it would be great to stop and see what they have made. It's time to say goodbye and I will see you next week. Have a Wonderful Week!!

ROBYN'S CHALLENGE FETISH CHALLENGE #95

Good Morning!! I hope you are up and awake to see the post I have for you today. Hopefully everyone had a great Valentine's Day. People think I'm weird but I don't believe in Valentine's Day. I would rather be surprised with flowers or something cute out of the blue. So being with my husband for 24 years we know that we are each others valentine and we surprise each other through the year.

This week the Design Team worked with designer Whoopsie Daisy. She has very cute stamps. Whoopsie Daisy gave us four images for our team to work with. With there being four you may want to see all the design teams blogs to see what image they choose. The theme this week was "Pretty In Pink". Choosing my paper was the hardest part in doing this weeks card. There was so much pink paper that I had in my stash. The prize is another great one. I know I say that a lot but the prizes are great.

Here is the prize for this week's

WINNER

Three sheet's of

DIGITAL STAMPS

The sheet we used had four images so think about how many digi's you can win. Well here is the card that I made. She is a very cute little girl. Please excuse the picture. I'm still working things out but I'm learning with what I have.

I hope that you enjoyed the card and the information on the challenge. I know I enjoyed this one. Have a Wonderful Week!!

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 94

Thank You for stopping by to see the new challenge this week for Robyn's Fetish. If you see anything that looks funny, I'm on very strong sinus medication and I'm trying to get this to you. I will apologize in advance if it sounds goofy in any way. I will be making this a little shorter then usual.

This week we used a Digital Stamp from Paper Pretties. The theme we used is "Square Card". I have never done a square card but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be since I didn't have extra space in the length or width. The digital stamp I used was called caffeine. I really hope you get what I am trying to portray in the card. I showed everyone and my Dad was the only one that got the little joke. You can tell I'm my father's daughter. The prize this week is a great one. Here it is:

6 DIGI'S Of The

Winner's Choice From

The Paper Pretties Store

Remember to go to The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog to get all the details. Here is the card that I made. I'm still learning about the glitter stuff. I'm hoping that you can see this one alot better.

Hope you enjoyed this week's challenge. I really hope to see you enter. Have a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #121

Welcome again to another Monday Challenge. Yes, a new challenge. Did anyone watch that Super Bowl last night. It was a very good game but I could have bopped my daughter. She was louder then the TV. We even let her stay up so she could see the confetti. I had no idea that they had confetti at the end but she did. Half time was great. Madonna actually did a great family oriented show. I have loved her music ever since her first song. My daughter thought her music stunk. You can tell between generations there. I have to say that I wanted the Giants to win and yeh they did. Happy Days!!

I'm pretty sure you will love this week's challenge and the image that we all used. The Digital Stamp was designed by Sarah Paris and we used her single digital stamp named Fairy Buttercup. I bet you are already thinking of the project that you are wanting to make to enter our challenge. The fairy is absolutely adorable and I loved working with her. Here is the example of the Stamp.

I told you she was cute. If you would like to look at it at the store you can go to My Grafico Arts & Crafts Community. The specific page for this stamp is Here.

Here is the challenge for the next two weeks. It's going to be a fun one. The challenge is Fairy Girl or St. Patricks Day. Entries will be accepted until February 17th at midnight. That's two weeks to make those cute projects. To enter your projects go to My Grafico's Challenge Blog.

Here is my card that I made. I went with the fairy and made a St. Patricks day card with her. The winner of this challenge will receive the Digital Stamp above by Sarah Paris. She could be used for many of things.

Remember that the other Design Team members made projects with this stamp also. If you have the time please visit their blog and leave them some love. I wouldn't mind some love also. HINT HINT. Have a Wonderful Week and I'll be back.

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #93

Welcome to Sunday's Challenge. I totally forgot to write this late night. My daughter has had so many things going on this weekend that I fell asleep last night very early. So not like me but I was trying to clean in between taking her where she needed to go. All I can say is when you get a bunch of girls in one place for a birthday party there is going to be major drama. They are only 12 and 13. It's hard to believe the things they argue about. Pure headache.

Well that was short and sweet so we can get to this weeks challenge. The stamp that we used for this week's challenge was from Robyn's Fetish. The challenge was a recipe challenge. You had to use 2 pieces of paper, 1 ribbon, 1 die cut or punched item, and 1 "bling". This was such a fun challenge that I hope we do more of these. Trying to find each one and coordinate it together was great. I really hope you participate in this challenge. See how fun you will have with it. Here's the prize you can win this week.

This week's feature stamp that we used was from designer Sanqunetti Designs. This stamp was called Winter Penguin. All of the designers used the same stamp and it was amazing how we all came up with so many different cards. The penguin is very cute and sure does remind you of winter. Here we are having winter days with spring days mixed in. Tomorrow it's suppose to be in the 50's. How crazy is that? Well here is the stamp we used.

THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 92

Hello Again!! I'm glad that you decided to join me for another Sunday challenge. This has been a very busy week so yet again I'm a little late getting this posted. My son was having a bad week so his dad and I tried getting him straightened out. He has the worst luck with vehicles. His truck broke down and he was sharing a car with his girlfriend. That left her stuck at home alot. So his dad helped him get it on the road. The positive is that it's fixed and his son road in the "big truck". For some reason he loves to ride in it. I actually spent the day with him when the fixed the truck and then I seen him again yesterday. You sure can't get much done with a two year old and a three year old. The three year old is my new granddaughter from my son's girlfriend. I had to take a nap after they left. I don't know how I did it when I had my three that young. LOL

Enough about my great family happenings. Let get to this Sunday's Challenge. The designer that we used a digital stamp was Gingerloft Digis. Our theme for this week is "Make It Sparkle". I absolutely loved this challenge. I love anything glitter, glitter paint, and many other sparkly things. This weeks prize will be:

Your choice of
3 DIGIS
from
GINGERLOFT DIGIS STORE

Remember that all the rules and the place to enter your project is at THE ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE BLOG. There is also more things there that you should check out.

Here's the card that I made this week with Gingerloft's Digi's.

You may have to make it a little larger for you to see the whole effect. I think I used to much sparkle. I can honestly say that this picture does not do it justice. I'm still trying to get my camera fixed so I'm using anyone's I can to get the photo's. I can't stress it enough to take a look at our other Designer's from our Design Team. They make great projects. Good Luck with the challenge and I will see you next Sunday. Have a Wonderful Week!!

Good Morning. It's a little grey and rainy here but so far it's starting out good. I get to go and shop for some scrapbooking supplies. That has to be one of my favorite activities. I'm actually running out of Valentine's Day and Easter. I had alot on hand and can't believe that it is gone already. I need to stay to my list so I don't go overboard. LOL I don't think that I have stuck to a list. You always see something that you need to have. Not one of the item but two. That's right I buy everything in two's.

Now let's get to the good stuff we are wanting to read. We used the designer Sanqunetti Design. The digital stamps that we used was named Tickets Galore.

I really don't go anywhere that you use tickets. Let's see all the tickets you can use.

See how many tickets there are. Many tickets for many projects. Check out this set and more designs from Sanqunetti Design's Here. At My Grafico Arts & Crafts Community you can also see many more digital stamps from nay more designers.

MONDAY'S FEATURE FOR MY GRAFICO

Good Morning. I do apologize that this is a little late but it's hard to start things so early in the morning when it's so cold here. Yes, winter has finally hit here. There's a little bit of snow on the ground and the temperatures are very cold. So when you are warm under those blankets you really don't want to come out from underneath them. My little dog even get's cold which I don't know how. She wears a sweater and still has to be under blankets so she will stop shivering. I have never seen a dog that gets so cold like that.

So did everyone like the first challenge of the month. You still have time to enter. The end date is January 20th. This week we are going to have a feature week. I think you are going to like the set that we chose. The designer is Cheri Wenger and we used her digital stamps called The Sweetness Collection. I had worked with this set when it first came out and alot of fun with it. There are very cute designs on it and I did make many different cards with the set. With Valentine's coming up these stamps are perfect to have. Here's a look at the whole collection.

If you would like to see the this set closer then go HERE. You can also see more of Cheri Wenger's design you just need to go to My Grafico's Art's & Craft's Community . You can also see more designer's work here also.

Let's get to my card. I used the Bubble Gum Machine. This was a fun project. Here is my card that I made this week:

I do hope that you liked the card. Remember that the rest of the design team has made their own projects so I would go and take a look at their great designs. Have a wonderful week and I will see you next week for a new challenge.

Burrrrrr!!! It's a very cold day here. We are trying to reach the 20's but I don't know. The sun is out so maybe we will. It is nice to have natural light instead of using the lamps. I'm a stickler when it comes to saving electric with the way the bills come in. The kids think I'm crazy but they are catching on. Also, there is snow on the ground. Our first sign of winter. Bring on the blizzard. LOL My dad hates when I say that because he has to keep the roads clear in our township.

Dis Digi Downloads is our great designer for this week. Our theme is animals. Who doesn't like animals? When is comes to snakes I'm out. All the other animals is fine with me. Well I had already done the fox last week so this week I worked with a dog with a turtle. Turtles are the cutest little things. Are you ready to hear what the prize is? It another great one. Here it is:

The winner will receive

a $10 voucher to the

Di’s Digi Download Store.

Didn't I tell you it was a great prize. Make sure you get your projects in on time. To see the rules for this great challenge just go to The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog Everything that you need to know you will find right there on that blog.

Now it's time to show you the card I made this week.

Since this was an animal theme I used paper with animals on the background. I do hope that you can see it. I will remind you that the other designer's made projects with different animals so I hope you would go and see all their great projects. Well this is my post for the day so I hope you found everything interesting. I do hope you come back next Sunday for another great challenge. Have a wonderful Week.

THE ROBYN'S FETISH SUNDAY CHALLENGE #89

Good Morning Everyone!! Hope you had a wonderful week. I can honestly say that mine was great. I found out that my Granddaughter will be born on April 18th. They have to do a C-Section and they went ahead and scheduled the date to have it done. Now I get to sit and wait for three months. I'm just wondering how my Grandson is going to take it He's been so spoiled from us that I don't know if he's going to like a new sister. He will still get spoiled from me. He's my little man.

Well, let me tell you that our designer of the week is Delicious Doodles. Our theme this week is a sketch theme. Just take our sketch and show us what you can make from it. I haven't participated in many sketch challenges but they are more fun then I thought they would be. It puts alot of guess work out of trying to come up with our own layout. Everyone on the Design Team picked a different digital stamp from Delicious Doodles to do our project. I picked a fox. I haven't worked on a fox so I thought this would be good for me

The prize for this challenge is a great one

You will get to pick 4 images of your choice

from Delicious Doodles.

This is a great prize for someone to want. Four images is alot. Can you think of all the cards you could make with 4 images? Alot!! The rules for the challenges is still at The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog.

Well I already told you that my card is made with a Fox so let's get to the project that I made. I hope you like it.

Remember that there are other Design Team members that worked very hard on their projects and it would be great if you could stop and leave them a little love about the project that they made for this challenge. There were many different ways that we did the sketch and I think you will love them. Have another great week and I will see you next Sunday.

Hello Everyone!! Yes I can honestly say that it is not Sunday but this challenge is still going on. I am late on posting this challenge. Over the holiday's was hectic and I had that lovely flu that my Grandson decided to share with Grandma. It's amazing how he bounced back and I'm still suffering from it. I hope everyone had a Happy Holiday weekend. Mine was nice but I broke my very expensive camera. I will be borrowing one until I can get mine fixed so I can still post my projects. I didn't cry but I couldn't take anymore pictures for the rest of the day and so on. I missed some cute photo's of my Grandson. I could go on and on but let's get to the project that I did have done for you.

The designer that we used for this challenge was Robyn's Fetish. I know you have all heard of her and her awesome digital stamps. The theme was Gingerbread Christmas. I used Gingerbread Cookies. They do look like sugar cookies but I can honestly say they can be either one. I'm sure you would love to know the prize you would win.

The prize is 1 image

of the winner’s choice from the Robyn's Fetish Store

or 2 images if the winner

has used a Robyn’s Fetish image.

Remember to go to the I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE BLOGget all the rules for you to enter your project. Remember, you still have time to enter this challenge.

Here's my card for the Gingerbread Christmas using a Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamp.

I do hope that you enjoy the card. I was trying to use the background paper as a cookie sheet but I don't know if it looks that way. The Design Team has worked very hard on these cards so I hope that you give them a visit and let them know how their hard work turned out. I hope you enjoy the rest of the week.

MONDAY'S MY GRAFICO'S CHALLENGE #118

Welcome to this weeks Monday Challenge with My Grafico. Hope you all had a great week. Now you have to start over again. This week will be a busy one but I'm going to enjoy it. I love seeing my kids and Grand kids faces when they open gifts and love what they got. I always tell everyone that I don't need anything that the kids faces is all I want to see.

Well to break the news. This will be the last challenge for this year. We are going to take a break and come back at the first of the year. There is a challenge that you can enter through the holiday's. It is sad not to have one but I could use the two week vacation. I will still try and post things but don't be upset if you don't see anything on Monday's. I still have a challenge feature on Sunday's that you are more then welcome to enter.

This week we worked with Dreamloft Designs. The set that we used was Tropical Cocktails. This really reminded me of the summer and Pina Colada's. (I hope I spelled that right). There are different shaped cocktail glasses that is in this set. It was hard to figure which one that I want to use. I'm not much of a cocktail person but every once in awhile it's nice to enjoy one.Let me show you the set so you know what I'm talking about.

If you would like to see this set closer just go to Dreamloft Designs and you can enlarge the image and see it up close. You can also see more of what Dreamloft Designs has to offer. If you would like to see more about other designers just go to My Grafico Arts & Crafts Community.

I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) CHALLENGE #86

Good Morning!! Hope you had a Wonderful Week. I can honestly say that my weekend has been the greatest. I'm usually so busy but this weekend I relaxed with my Grandson Hayden. He spent the night and my face hurts from all the laughing that I did. He's talking so much and some of the stuff he says is so funny. I get to keep him today until his Dad comes to get him. I'm sure it will be sooner then I want but he needs time with him also. You would think we have little kids with all the toys he has out. We can hardly walk in the living room. I don't mind. He can play with every toy he has. Grandchildren are great. I'm going to have a Granddaughter in April. How exciting.

Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps is the designer that we worked with this week. I chose a picture of a little girl writing letters. I am thinking she is writing Thank You Cards. I love little girls that wear cute little dresses. She was fun to work with. Here is the prize that you can win for this weeks challenge.

1 image of the winner’s choice from

To find the rules for this week's challenge just go to I Did It Ceations Challenge Blog Every thing that you need to know is on that page and how to enter your project. Make sure you read the rules because there are certain things that are required on the cards.

Here's my Thank You card with the cute little girl. I really hope that you like her.

I do hope that you like the card. I love the feather that she is using to write the letters. Remember that the other Design Members made their own Thank You cards so you may want to go and take a look for some inspiration. Good Luck in the projects that you make and have a Wonderful Week.

FEATURE WEEK AT MY GRAFICO

2011-12-12T06:16:00.000-08:00

TODAY'S MONDAY FEATURE AT MY GRAFICO

Thanks for joining me for another feature week at My Grafico. I'm sure you will love what we have for you. Is everyone getting ready for the holiday's? I can say that I have been busier then normal. I attempted to go shopping this past weekend and the lines were so long. My husband and I took turns standing in line just so the other could take a break. Even the grocery stores were very busy. I came home and crashed for the rest of the day.

Let me get to this week's Feature.(I hope you are still working on those projects for the challenge that's going on now.) The designer that we are featuring this week is Dreamloft Designs. We used her clipart called Christmas Friends. These little friends are adorable. There are bears, snowmen and more that I would love to show you on her page. So let's get to her adorable friends.

These friends are so adorable and the colors are very bright and inviting. These would make a great purchase for cards and even scrapbooking layouts with pictures of the kids. I would love to make a layout with the bear and my grandson. Visit Dreamloft Designs and see the great price on these Christmas friends. She has many other designs that you can look at also.

You still have until December 16th to get your projects done for the Masks Challenge. I hope you are having fun with this one. Remember all you have to do is go to My Grafico's Challenge Blog and see all the rules you need to participate.

I didn't make a card for this feature. I decided to make a decorations that hangs on the front door or any other door you would like. I thing my grandson will love this one. Remember I used Dreamlofts Designs Christmas Friends.

There is glitter glue on all of the hats but it didn't show up that great. I think I needed a white door to take the picture but I hope you get my idea. I hope you loved the feature this week that we used with Dreamloft Designs. Don't forget that the reat of the Design Team made things from this set. Leave them some love when you see them. Next week will be our last week until the first of January. Don't forget to come here though and see what's going on. have a Wonderful Week and see you soon.

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #85

2011-12-11T05:17:00.000-08:00

GOOD MORNING!! WELCOME TO A NEW CHALLENGE FROM I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC)

Wow, it's another Sunday Challenge. Time flies when you have kids in all kinds of after school activities. Why they do more this month then any other amazes me. Do they think we have nothing else to do? I love that my kids are doing activities instead of getting in trouble though. My son had finals all week and was a little bit unbearable to be around. I remember those finals but I don't remember being hard to live with. I'm glad they are done. I will say he did do very good on them. So did my husband. He is in college also at the same college with his son. They have two classes next semester with each other. Can't wait to see how that goes. LOL

Gingerloft Digi Designs was our designer this week and our theme is "Santa's Getting Ready"

I think I'm always getting ready for something. The digi that I used this week was a penguin. They are the cutest things. They live in the cold like it's nothing but it's been real cold here and I'm trying to get used to it. Here's the prize for this week's challenge.

It's 3 digi's of

your choice from

Gingerloft Digi Stamps.

What a great prize for this challenge!!

To find the rules for the challenge you can go to Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog . Every thing that you need will be right there. You can find her link there for her store where you can look at Gingerloft's Digi Designs. There are also more designs there to view. Take a little bit of time and see the great stuff there.

I told you that I used a penguin. He's helping to get the toys in the big toy bag. That's what the kids want to see. You can see that he's going over the list to see who will be getting those toys. Wonder who is on the list? Here's the card that I designed for you this week.

I hope you like it and get some inspiration from it. It was fun making it. The only thing I have trouble with is when to stop adding things. I still think it turned out OK. Well have another Wonderful Week and don't forget that our other designer's made some awesome cards also. Take a peek. You will love them. See you next Sunday for a new challenge.

Welcome to this Monday's Challenge. Yes, this is a new week for our next challenge. I hope everyone is excited about it. I would just like to let you know that I went to my son's and his girlfriends ultra sound last Friday. It was a great experience. You could see the little hand by itself.

Our designer was Lindsay's Stamp Stuff and we used her SVG and PDF Templates called Masquerade Masks. How great is this to make one of these masks. I used my favorite color on mine which is purple. Think about New Year's Eve, you could have a masquerade party. What fun!! Well here is the page fr you to see her masks you can use.

You can also look around at more of Lindsay's Stamp Stuff and see what great work she does. There are also many other designer's that you can look at their work also. You may be there awhile looking at all these great stamps. Lindsay's Stamp Stuff is on My Grafico Arts And Craft Community. Just look for the tab for the store and you will see everything.

Good Morning!! Hope you are enjoying your weekend. I have been cleaning so I can put my Christmas Tree up. My house is little so I have to rearrange everything to get it in the living room. It's been hard doing this since my back has been hurting a lot lately. I'm not suppose to lift that much but how are you suppose to get anything done when no one is ever home. Deer season isn't helping me out at all. All my lifting buddies are in the woods.I hope everyone is getting their stuff done for the holiday.

You can still make a card for the challenge. I will let you know the pretty little girl in the project is my granddaughter Sarah. She is three years old and looks like a porcelain doll. Here's my project.

Well I hope you enjoyed my project. Please take a few minutes and visit our other designers blogs to see their projects.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE

2011-11-28T05:14:00.000-08:00

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE WEEK

Welcome to our Monday Feature Week. Hope you all had a Wonderful Thanksgiving and an awesome weekend. I can honestly say that I had a Giving Weekend. This is something I said I would always do if my hair was long enough. Give it to the Locks Of Love. I had hair that was clear down to my behind. (Embarrassing Word) I had 16 inches cut off my hair. It felt so good to have that hair off of me. When I told the lady what I wanted it cut off, you should have seen her face. She asked me twice before she cut the pony tail off. Their are a lot of things that I really believe in and if I can help in any way I will. It feels great to donate that hair to help someone else. I didn't do it for the attention. Just to be happy doing it. You never know how great the feeling is to give.

Thanks for listening. Now let's get to the feature the Design Team and I had made this week. We used stamps from the designer Dilek Design Studio and the stamps were called Christmas Accessories Stamps. These are great accessories to use for anything. Scrapbooking Layouts, Cards, Altered Art and so much more. I was grateful for working with these. Do you know that at this time you can not find much of anything for Christmas Crafts. It's horrible. These stamps are going to come in great use for me. Let me show you the stamps so you can see how great they are.

I hope you like them as much as I do. I love the candle but couldn't figure out how to make a card. I know there are alot of saying with candles for the Holidays but I couldn't think of any of them. I guess I was having a creative block. LOL Here is the link that will take you straight to the page to purchase these. Also take a look at the other designer's stamps while you are there. They would love for you to see their work. Here you go:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/dilek-christmas-accessories-stamps/prod_1554.html

Also, you still have time to enter the challenge for this two weeks. The theme is Dinner/Cleaning and you have until Midnight December 2nd. It's a great challenge and I would love to see you all take a chance and enter.

Well now is the time to show you the card that I made this week with the Christmas Stamps from Dilek Design Studio. I love the holidays so this is going to be cute for one of my Christmas Cards.

I actually found this paper in my stash. See it's good to be a paper hoarder. I hope the card gives you some inspiration. I do hope that you go and look at what the other Designs did with these accessories. We all have different ideas so see what they are. I wish you luck in that challenge that's still open. Have a wonderful week and I wil see you next week where is will be another challenge week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #116

2011-11-21T07:26:00.000-08:00

MONDAY'S CHALLENGE WEEK AT MY GRAFICO

Good Morning. Today is the start of a new challenge for My Grafico. We will get into more detail about that in just a few minutes. I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. If you read my blog yesterday I said the same thing and gave you a little insight of what my family does for Thanksgiving. You are more then welcome to go and see that post. This year has just gone to fast for me. I remember in high school it seemed like the days lasted forever but the older you get the shorter the days are. Sounds crazy but I know the older you get the more responsibilities we all have.

Well lets start with who the designer the Design Team worked with this week. The designer is Zenware Designs and the Digital Stamps that we worked with was Vintage Appliance Stamps. These reminded me of the comedy shows back in the 70's. It also shows how technology has made everything so much easier these days then back then. Here's a picture of the Digital Stamps. I'm sure you will love them and have great memories to make them scrapbook layouts or cards.

These are pretty vintage. I remember having a blow dryer like that for my barbie. There are so many different things that you will remember from these vintage appliances. Zenware has many different Digital Stamps that you can see at My Grafico's Store. You can begin here by going to the direct link to the Digital Stamps you see above at:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/vintage-appliance-stamps/prod_1181.html

Now this is our challenge week that will last for two weeks. The theme is going to be Dinner/Cleaning. The end date for the entries is December 2nd at midnight. The prize will be this wonderful stamp set. Who wouldn't want to get free Digital Stamps. You can never have enough. Ask me, I know. For more information about the challenge you can go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/. Take a look at the entries and see what everyone comes up with. You are more then welcome to tell your friends about these challenges. The more the merrier.

Well I made a card this week with the Digital Stamps from Zenware. I have different sayings for all the stamps but decide to go with the one I'm about to show you. I was surprised at how many sayings you could come up with about appliances. Let's not make you wait. Here is my card.

I think it's cute. The paper in the bake was about making chocolate chip cookies so I thought this all went well together. Please visit the other Design Teams Blogs and let thee know how you love their projects. You may get some ideas to make a card for out challenge. Good Luck to all those who enter. See you next Monday

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE

2011-11-20T07:33:00.000-08:00

SUNDAY'S I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) CHALLENGE #82

Wow, it's another Sunday for a great challenge from I Did It Creations. I'm sure you are looking forward to this one this week. It's a great one. Before I get started to tell you about the challenge I would like to say Happy Thanksgiving!! I was shocked when my Husband told me I need to start getting things for the dinner. I still thought I had another week. Another shocker, my Husband was the one that reminded me. That doesn't happen to many times. I was really not going to have a dinner in the beginning when we talked about it three weeks ago. Everyone has other places to go at different times that I didn't want to bother. I guess that's probably why I forgot all about it. I guess he decided who comes, comes and who doesn't it's their loss. We should still do it for the kids that are at home. Enough of my rambling. Lets get to the real reason we are here. The great Sunday Challenge.

First let me tell you that our designer this week is Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More and the challenge has to do with Snowmen. I hear Snowmen and I automatically think of snow. I love the snow and ask for a blizzard every year. Makes my Dad mad since he works for our Township and has to clear those roads. I don't say it around him no more. LOL.

The prize this week is one image from Robyn's Fetish Store. Now, if you use her image you will win two images. She has a great big store so you could find almost everything that you like and more. Her store is at: http://robynsfetish.com/shop/ More of the rules for the challenge is at this URL also. If you have any questions let me know or Susan's e-mail will be on that page to.

I picked out a Snowman that is happy with his There is Snow Place like Snow Home. He's so cute. I just couldn't fit the name on the card by time I finished with the embellishments. I had the sign made with the saying above but I couldn't make it fit. I still think the card turned out very cute. Remember you can make a snowman for our challenge. You could turn around and send it to someone for a Christmas Card. Well let's show you my card.

I hope you can see the snowflakes. There are also birds eating feed. Can't wait to make one myself this year. LOL Pleas visit our wonderful Design Team's blog and leave them comments on their creations. My list is on the sidebar of my blog. Good Luck to everyone that enter's and I will see you next Sunday for a new challenge. Have a Wonderful Week and Happy Turkey Day.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY FEATURE

2011-11-14T18:51:00.000-08:00

MONDAY'S FEATURE WEEK FOR MY GRAFICO

Welcome to another Feature Week with My Grafico. This week we will show you a Digital Stamp set that the Design Team worked with. I will let you know about the challenge later on in the post. This is a little bit late being posted and I do apologize. Everyone forgets to do things here and there. As I said before, I need a big planner to keep all my commitments right there in front of me in the morning.

This week we worked with Dream Loft. The Digital Clip Art we worked with were called Love Bus Clip Art Collection. I thought of the 60's immediately and couldn't wait to see what it was we were working with. Of course, several things came to mind but some I just couldn't do. I was wanting a picture of one of my family members from the 60's but didn't find any. Not many people took pictures back then to show their future family anything that they lived through. Stories are great but having a picture with it makes it so much more to say. Well let's show you a picture of these Digital Clip Art from Dream Loft.

Pretty Groovy!! LOL Had to put that in there. If you would like to go and see more or Dream Loft's clip art I will give you the link for you. I will give you the link and then from there go to the rest of the store and see all the designer's work.

http://www.mygrafico.com/illustrations-cliparts/love-bus-clip-art/prod_5155.html

Now, this is our feature week and not our challenge week. Last week we started the Challenge theme Autumn. You still have a chance to get in on that challenge. You have until the 18th of November at Midnight. For more of the rules of this change just go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/. Feel free to share these challenges with your friends.

Well let me show you what I made from this clip art. I made a card. I have been trying to think outside of the box but everything I came up with was a card or a scrapbook layout. I do think the card came out great. I love the gemstones.

I hope you all like it. This was a little time consuming but well worth it. Please look at the other Design Team Members Blogs and leave them some LOVE. Have a wonderful week and I will see you next week with a new challenge. Good Luck.

SUNDAY'S I DID IT CREATIONS CHALLENGE #81

2011-11-13T06:50:00.000-08:00

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #81

Welcome to another Sunday's challenge. This week went by really quick and I can't believe we are here again. But that's a good thing. More challenges more prizes. These prizes are great and you don't have to do much to enter.

Nothing new here. It's the same old same old here. The only thing that is stressing me is seeing the count down of the days of Christmas. I don't know why people want to rush it. It will come in it's own time. I do have to admit that I have three gifts already. Way more then last year. This year is going to be more about family then the gifts. Economy is not helping me out any. I live in a state that doesn't have many jobs available. I hope that changes soon. That would be nice for Santa to bring us. LOL

Enough of my babbling and straight to our challenge. I think you will love it this week. I know I do. Our designer this week is JLJ Designs and our theme is Everybody Loves a Teddy. Yes, Teddy Bears. As you may know I love to work with teddy bears. They are so cute.

This is one prize that you are going to want to win this week. The prize is a $10.00 certificate to JLJ Designs. What a great prize!! Definately enter for this great certificate. I'm sure after you see our projects that you would want to win just to get some of the images that our Design Team made this week.

I picked out a dancing teddy bear. She is called Sugarplum Fairy. I did get a better picture this week with the stickles. I started using stickles and I just love them. I know I can't put them on every card but they are working great for the ones I have been making lately. So, here is my card for inspiration.

I hope you love the card. I love the little tutu that I made and these flowers our great. Please visit the other Design Teams blogs and leave them some love. I wish you all good luck and I will be back next week with another great image and designer. Have a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE

2011-11-07T08:56:00.000-08:00

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #115

Good Morning!! Hope your Monday is starting out to be a good one. Mine so far hasn't been to bad. I found out that I will have a little bit more time this week for crafting. That's always a good thing. I'm sure alot of you understand about finding time for crafting. The only thing that I'm trying to adjust to is this time change. I'm usually not a morning person and I have been getting up at 5:00am. That is really not me. OK, let's get to the good stuff.

This week we worked with Dilek Design Studio Digital Stamps that are called Autumn Elements. The leaves at this time are so beautiful. Had to throw that in there. LOL There are different stamps with different Autumn things you see. If you have kids pictures with leaves or anything to do with this season, this is the stamp set for you. I had fun with this one and I can say that the projects you can make with these are endless. Here is a picture of the Digital Stamps that I made my project from.

I'm going to give you the link so if you would like to buy these digital stamps you can go straight to them. You can also see more of Dilek Design Studio's stamps and other Designer stamps that are sold at My Grafico's Store. Here's the link:

http://www.mygrafico.com/1-00-dollar-sets/autumn-elements-stamps/prod_1070.html

This week starts a new challenge week. The challenge for the next two weeks has to have an Autumn theme. The prize will be this stamp set above. You have until November 18th at midnight to submit your projects. For more of the rules you can go to mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com.

This week I decided to do something different. I made a seating name card. Some families have names on certain places for people to sit. Growing up we had the kid table and the adult table. That was simple enough for us. So here is what I came up with:

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #80

Good Afternoon!! Hope it's sunny and warm where you are. I have the sun but it is chilly here. Just to let everyone know, my Grandson had his 2nd birthday party this weekend. I can't believe he's 2. He had a lot of kids there and he is such a different person around them all. I seen a different side of my little man. I know all kids are different but he was a little bully. I know he doesn't understand to share but he made it very clear not to touch his stuff. Lol.

Well let's get to the challenge that you are all waiting for. Our sponsor this week is Stitchy Stamps and our theme is Christmas/Winter. These are my two favorite things. I love Christmas to see my children's eyes glow when they open their gifts. I also love the winter. I know I'm crazy but I love snow. I really like it when no one has walked in it and no one has touched the trees. There are great opportunities for some great pictures to be taken.

A FREEBIE will be available for any participant who would like

to use one of Stitchy Stamps below for their entry.

Please email me

susan_paulson@verizon.net

and put CHALLENGE # 80 in the SUBJECT LINE.

Then, please do NOT forget to tell me the

NAME of the DT member who used the image that you want.

Only 1 FREEBIE per person, please.

The PRIZE to the winner of this challenge will be

1 image from STITCHY STAMPS and 2 images if the winner

has used a Stitchy Stamps image.

Here is the card that I made for my Winter Card. It's actually a Christmas card with letters to Santa. I used stickles and I always have a hard time taking pictures with them. They alway's show up to bright. So when you see something sparkle it's the stickles.

Don't forget to look at the other Design Team Blog's and see their creations they made for out theme. Good Luck with the challenge and I will have another challenge next Sunday. Have a Wonderful Week.

MY GRAFICO'S FEATURE PROJECT FOR THIS WEEK

2011-10-31T09:49:00.000-07:00

FEATURE PROJECT THIS MONDAY FOR MY GRAFICO

Happy Halloween!! For those of you that do not like or celebrate the holiday Happy Monday. I didn't realize that there were many people that do not celebrate this holiday. You learn a lot about people when you are on this Internet. I have to admit that this is one of my favorite holidays. We decorate the whole outside and inside. We always have great compliments on our house. Unfortunately, this year we did not decorate. I had been very ill and my son didn't get to have his son this year for the holiday. Joint custody really stinks. Without having my Grandson it was just not the same. Being a Grandma is harder then I thought. I wish someone would have warned me.

This week we worked with Revidevi and the Digital Stamps called Build Your Own Farm. These stamps have all the things to make your own farm. All the pieces are separate so that's how you make the farm you want. I will show you the digital stamps so you know what I am talking about. I had pictures of my dad and daughter with cows but I could not find the pictures so I had to go with my second idea. Well let me show you the stamps right now.

If you would like to take a closer look I will post the link below. You can also see the rest of the digital stamps and I'm sure you will be absolutely amazed at the stamps. Just take a look for the sake of looking. Here's the link

http://www.mygrafico.com/build-your-own/build-your-little-farm/prod_5468.html

Now this week is not a challenge week but you still have time to enter the challenge by going to mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com and read the rules. You have until Sunday at midnight to get your project in.

Well here is my project. I did a scrapbook layout instead. I think I may make a book with this for my Grandson. You will see what I'm talking about.

Well I hope you like it. If you can't read it, it's Old McDonald had a farm. I would love to make a scrapbook for my Grandson for us to go and read through that is homemade. Please visit the other Design Team Blogs that's on my sidebar to see what they came up with. Hope everyone has a Wonderful Week.

I don't want to bore you with all the things that I said in the last post that was posted earlier today. Kids are in school and I'm getting a little bit caught up. I'm so glad. So, here is the project that My Grafico's Design Team worked on this week.

This week we worked with DreAm Loft and the set called Little Monster SVG. These monsters are very cute and not scary to the little ones that you decorate for. I had started one project, threw it away and started a new one which I will show you here in a minute. I decided to use all the monsters because you can't just pick one out of this bunch. Here is the SVGs for you to look at:

I DID IT CREATIONS (IDIC) SUNDAY'S CHALLENGE #77

Hello everyone. I know today is not Sunday but I still wanted to post the challenge and my project for you to see. You still have time to put your project in the challenge for this week. I feel like I am running behind for the last couple of months. I wonder if I will ever get ahead with all the holidays coming up. I know having my daughter home all last week added to my reasoning of being behind. We are from a small town where alot of the students here are in 4H. So there are many that participate in the fair so the district just gives the students the whole week off. It was fun when I was in school but being a parent it does add some confusion in my schedule. I can say that I did get to spend time with her and the crafts had to be set aside until she went to bed which was late every night.

This week's sponsor is Robyn's Fetish and our theme for this week is If I Could Talk To The Animals. Since I could choose the animal I wanted is when I decided to choose another bear. A very cute bear that had a pumkin outfit on. This put two things together, a bear and the holiday Halloween.

Robyn's Fetish will provide a FREEBIE for any participant that wants to use it for their entry.

All you have to do is email me at

susan_paulson@verizon.net

put CHALLENGE # 77 FREEBIE in the SUBJECT LINE

Don't forget to tell me the name of the DT member.

I will send you that image and you will be able to craft away!

The PRIZE for this challenge is 1 Robyn's Fetish image of your choice.

If the winner has used a Robyn's Fetish image for the entry,

the prize is 2 images from Robyn!

Now I will show you the card that I made with my bear. I hope that you get some inspiration from the project that I did.

Don't forget to visit the other Design Team Blogs to see the creations that they made this week. Good Luck with the challenge. It will be nice to see what you create.

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE # 116

Happy Monday!! Getting ready for another work week. The weekends are just not long enough anymore. We try to do something on the weekends with the kids. Even if it's a board game called Sorry. My daughter's favorite game right now. If we would let her we would be playing all night. It's nice spending time with them because when they move out who knows when you will see them. My son is 22 and I still hate when he leaves here. You can't keep them at home but you still miss them the same. I worry more then I thought I would after he left. I now know why my parents were always saying they never see their grandkids. You don't realize what they are saying until you go through it. Well enough about me this week. I don't think you would like to read a book about my life. I have thought about writing a book though. I just don't know how to start it off. Any suggestions just let me know.

This week we worked with Designer Olillia Illustrations and the Digital Stamps are called Mom To Be Shopping. Once I seen the credit card in her hand I knew what I wanted to do. You can do anything with a credit card. Although I do not have one. They are to much trouble. The stamps are very lovely women with their cute little belly's. Well lets show you the stamp that I was able to use this week:

So if you would like to take a closer look at these stamps here is the link that will take you right to them. When you are there look at the rest of Olillia Illustrations. I'm positive you will find more that you will want. Here is your link:

This week does start a new week for a challenge. The challenge being baby shower. I can't wait to see these cards. For all the rules and to enter your card just go to My Grafico's Challenge blog at http://mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/

Well here's my creation for the week. I made a shopping list for baby. I wanted to do something different then a card this week. Hope it gives you some inspiration.

Welcome to a new week at My Grafico. Here is a rainy dreary day. Although by the end of the week it will be back in the 70's. I wish it would make up it's mind because I can't get rid of these allergies and sinus infections. The medicine makes me tired and I feel like I'm loosing alot of crafting time. With my daughter in school I have more time to work on my crafts but it's so quiet around here I fall asleep. I am a baby when it come's to medicine. I have never been able to take it without falling asleep. Oh well, at least I am getting some things done. I even have my project for this week. That's a great thing.

This week we worked with Designer Sarah Paris and they are called Green Finger Stamp. There was a wide variety of different stamps and many possibilities of things to make with these. I have to say I could not figure out which project I had in mind to make. Once I started on one it was so easy to finish it up. I just need a craft room so I can find my supplies easier. Well lets show you the stamp that I was able to use this week:

Well it's another start of a new week. It seems that this time of year goes so fast that you don't have time to breathe. All my September Birthday's are all done until next year. This month has the most birthday's for our family. Now, I hate to say, I'm starting on my Christmas shopping and I actually have one gift bought. I would love to have it done before Thanksgiving but I try that every year. I'm going to try harder though this year. Enough about Christmas and let's get on to the project that our design team decided to show you this week. Just remember keep working on those Outdoor Fun projects that are due by September 23d.

This week we worked with Znow Flake Designs and the stamps are called Late Summer Dress VP Girls .These are very cute paper dolls. I remember playing with paper dolls when I was little. They were so much fun. So here is the picture of Znowflake Designs:

I DID IT CREATIONS SUNDAY CHALLENGE #72

Good Morning!!! For some of us it's a day of remembering the ones we lost and some that had family member's that were hero's that day. It is a day of many mixed emotions. I think everyone remembers what they were doing the exact minute the planes hit. I was in the hospital with my son who had spinal meningitis. I was grateful my whole family was there in his room. He ended up OK but it was very scary. I hope everyone spends this day remembering or doing what they need to do to get through today.

This weeks sponsor is Robyn's Fetish. The theme for this week's challenge is anything goes. The stamp that I used is called Choo Choo train. When I picked this image I had a great idea but what I made is so totally different from my original idea. Robyn's Fetish has many more digital stamps. So if you are interested in looking at her stamps just go to:

I never seen such a big storm as Irene. Weather these days seem to be worse then years ago. Ok lets get started on the new challenges.

I hope that you will like the new set up for our challenges. We will be having Bi-weekly

IDIC SUNDAY CHALLENGE #70

Welcome to another Sunday with IDIC's Challenge. I truly hope that everyone is surviving the Hurricane. I'm not to close to it but everything that I have seen is so devastating. My sister in law lives in North Carolina but far enough inland that they were safe from it. I haven't watched this morning what damage that it has done. It's just hard to watch and see what people are going through. I do want to send hugs and prayers to those people on the East Coast.

This weeks sponsor is Toucan Scraps. The theme for this week's challenge is Nature. The stamp that I used was called Dragon Fly Meadows. I can honestly say that it took me a little longer to come up with an idea for this one. I never done that many cards about nature. I have done animals but not meadows. I did like the challenge though. Toucan Scraps has many more stamps and papers but if you are interested in looking at this stamp just go to:

All week they said thunder storms for Saturday. I'm so glad they were wrong. It turned out to be a beautiful day. Having all the family come together and I actually seen my brother and sister. I hadn't seen them for about 8 years. What a great surprise. The thing that was the most important was that my son had fun and there are many pictures for him to have to share that day with anyone and everyone.

2011-06-06T08:26:00.000-07:00

Good Morning Everyone!! I hope that you had a wonderful weekend. I can honestly say that mine was great. My second child graduated yesterday. (Sending a Congratulations to my son Jordan.) His older brother even was there with my grandson. Hayden didn't cry at all through the ceremony and was so good. Now to get ready for his party this weekend and I'm finally done with all the the graduation preparations that I have been working on for the last two months. I can honestly say that all the work was well worth it. He has already been hired at a construction company which is awesome. He actually started there the last quarter of high school. It's was part of an apprenticeship. I'm glad that he stuck to his goal and made it come true. I'm one happy mother. I will miss him when he decides to leave but know that he will be OK. Well, enough about my life but I'm still excited and wanted to share with everyone. Let's get started on what you came to look for.

This week I worked with Designer Cheri Wenger. I used the Digital Stamps named Mod Linear Florals Collection. These are really beautiful flowers. I really loved working with them. I even made many different ones before I came up with the idea of the card that I made to show you this week. So now I want to show you a picture of the Digital Stamps that I used.

2011-05-30T09:15:00.000-07:00

Hello!! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. Enjoy the sunshine and time with your family and friends. Remember those that are in the service and the ones that are no longer with us. This weekend means alot of different things to a lot of people.

I actually watched the two biggest races this weekend with my husband. They were exciting and the ends were disappointing. You think that someone is going to win and bang one guy crashes on the last lap and the other ran out of gas. I did get to spend the whole day with my husband and that was great. Of course, the kids had to stay outside and play. I don't know how they can stand the 90 degree weather outside playing. Too hard for me to be out in. OK, that is enough about my weekend so let's get started on the Monday Challenge.

This week I worked with Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. I used the Digital Stamps named Steampunk Style. These stamps are so neat and very different from what I am use to working with. It did take me a bit longer to figure out what to make with them but was well worth it. I now have a little experience with the Steampunk Style. I really didn't know how popular Steampunk was. So now I want to show you a picture of the Digital Stamps that I used.

So if you would like to purchase these beautiful Stamps all you have to do is head on over to the url that I am giving you.

http://www.mygrafico.com/digital-stamps/steampunk-stamps/prod_2903.html

Now here is the project that I made with these Digital Stamps. I hope you like it.

Well here is my first attempt at Steampunk. I don't think it turned out to bad my self. If you would like to try and start doing this type of Scrapbooking or Cardmaking this is a good set to buy.

Now all you have to do is go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/ and enter your project. I wish you all the luck and have fun with it.

Welcome to another of My Grafico's Monday Challenge. I can't believe that it's Monday already. Also, we are so close to it being June. My son graduates from high school on June 5th and trying to get everything ready for the party and the day of the graduation has taken up alot of my time. You would think he would help with something but you all know the answer to that. I do admit he sent out two announcements. Help me tremendously. NOT His last day of school was Friday and he has become a couch potato. He was laid off of his job but is suppose to go back some time in June. One can only hope.LOL I would like to say that I hope everyone is safe and OK after the tornado's yesterday. I have seen pictures and there is so much damage.

This week I worked with Mels Brushes. I used the Digital Stamps named Tudor Rose. These stamps are so beautiful that I had such a hard time which one to choose. I did make a card but I'm soon going to make a Scrapbook Layout using a pictures of my daughter. These are going to make the page beautiful. Now I want to show you a picture of the Digital Stamps that I used.

My Grafico's Monday Challenge #96

2011-05-16T12:12:00.000-07:00

Hope is all well with you this Monday. I looked at my last post and didn't realize that it has been so long since my last post. I haven't been able to work on any projects for the last couple of weeks. As you probably know there have been some things that I am going through. My Dad is having some medical problems that is potentially serious if they can't get things under control. You never think that anything will happen to you parents but then it does. He's been a very hard working man and has always been there for me no matter what. Well, not to cut that short but it's still a fresh thing that is happening and I'm still not dealing to well with it. Well lets get to what you are here for. My Grafico's Monday Challenge. So let's get started.

Let's go over the rules and what you need to know about putting your entries in. You just need to go to http://www.mygraficocrafts.blogspot.com/ and everything you want to know will be right there. Even though we have monthly challenges our Design Team will still have a new project to show you every Monday using a different stamp set. Our Design Team will show you projects we worked on with that stamp set of the week to give you an idea of what you can do with the stamps. You may see the projects and think that you just have to have that stamp set.

This week I worked with Jessica Weible Illustrations. I used the Digital Stamp named Little Mermaid. When I first heard this I thought of that Disney movie Little Mermaid. My daughter's favorite movie when she was younger. This mermaid is really cute. I want to show you a picture of the Digital Stamp that I used.

So if you would like to purchase this beautiful Stamp all you have to do is head on over to the url that I am giving you.
