3 Clovers Challenge Day!!

Morning all! So...I didn't get a card ready to post yesterday...sorry about that...but, I did craft today and have about 3 different projects to show you over the next couple of days. However, I have not made my Blogger's Challenge card yet. Guess that will come today, huh?

As for this card...today is 3 Clovers Designs Challenge day. Today's challenge is to make a card for a teenager. Why would this card work? 'Cuz it is SO perfect for my teenager. My middle son loves to be outside and is always being goofy so I thought this bear and the look on his face would be perfect. And, the sentiment...that is definitely my boy...actually it is all three of my boys!

Also, this card was made for the Latenight Stampers challenge of the week which is to make a card inspired by your favorite candy bar. Well, I didn't use my favorite candy bar...I used one of Jon's favorites...Snickers. Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Confetti White (so I could watercolor), and Ballet Blue. I even followed the lines of the rectangle that is around the word Snicker on the wrapper.

I know this is very simple but I'm still so excited to give it to him...just so he can remember that we love him!

So...why don't you play along. If you have a teenager...make a card for them. If not...make a card for one of your kids and most importantly...give it to them. They will remember it for years to come!

Holiday Planner

Good morning all! Just thought I'd share full sized picture of the holiday planner that I am offering a class for on November 14th. See HERE for more info.

For this planner I used Merry Moments Designer Series Paper (only two pieces are needed for coordinating papers), Real Red Cardstock, Chocolate Chip Cardstock, Garden Green Cardstock, and finally Very Vanilla Cardstock. The best part about this planner is that it is purse sized...yep, it is about 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" so it slides easily into your purse for all of your shopping trips. The pages inside include spots for your Christmas card list, thank you lists, wish lists, gifts for neighbors, several spots for receipts (I may try to add a spot for recipes) and a November and December calendar. It is held together with a length of Silver Elastic Cord pulled tight so the pages don't move around it is then tied in a knot.

I have decided if you'd like to purchase a finished Planner from me I'd be happy to put it together for you for $25 plus shipping to your house. Just send me an e-mail and I'll get started for you!

I do believe I'll be taking my planner with me today when Todd and I go shopping so I can start my Christmas card list.

Because Todd and I are headed shopping (which is 45 minutes from us) and because tonight is also the Care Net Fundraising Dessert Buffet I don't think I'm going to get time to craft today. Hopefully, I will see ya back here on Wednesday!

Here is the upcoming holiday countdown for ya...

5 days 'til Halloween
31 days 'til Thanksgiving
59 days 'til Christmas
