Wellies

Wellies is such a fun word to me - not sure why, but it makes me smile when I say it. I don't own any Wellies, but I have a pair picked out if I ever decide to get some. At MFPSpeedyTV, the Inspiration challenge this week is "Get Creative with those Wellies" and there are some pretty inspiring Wellies:




So fun!

I took a bit of inspiration from all of them:

I used stamps from the following MFP sets:

Works of Art
Columns and Toparies
Glad Glads
Ivy and Blossoms
You've Got Style

My paper is from The Paper Studio and SU!, the inks are Tim Holtz (using the Wrinkle Free Distress technique), the glitter is from Sparkle n Sprinkle, and the ribbon was a sweet birthday present. In case you want to see the Wellies I have picked out here they are:


Hope you are inspired by the fun Wellies in the challenge and join us in the MFPSpeedyTV Inspiration Challenge.

Hugz!

  1. Wow! Nancy, what a fine job you did with the Wellies inspiration. I love all these flowers stuck down in there. You have lots of wonderful sparkle and used some fab papers.

  2. Your card is absolutely adorable (don't forget to enter it into the SNS Creative Challenge). I have to say though, the wellies you have chosen made me laugh out loud. I've never seen cowboy boot wellies and they are just too fun. Living in the Northwest for a number of years, wellies were the shoe of choice most of the time. These would have been perfect.

  5. I assume "Wellies" are what I call boots. In any case all the ones in your post today are cute, but yours are by far the best and the most snazzy. That card is just stunning. Have a wonderful day.

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!
It's time for the New Release Blog Hop at Dude Time Doodles ! I am thrilled to show off Elmer Elf - just one of the four new images. I love them all and plan to make Christmas cards with every single one of them. Be sure and pick them up soon in the store if you like them because all the Dude Time Doodles Images will be retiring in the next few weeks - sniff, sniff! If you came to my blog from Sharon's amazing blog you can continue on to Mags who has another wonderful creation to show you. Dude Time Doodles blog hops are easy as you can hop on at any point and just continue around. Be sure and leave comments because one of the DT members is the mystery host/hostess and one of the commenters on their blog will win free images from the store. Hugz!!

A Bit of Tea, Horses, and a Cowboy

 I love when my children follow in my footsteps and beyond (only the cool footsteps, of course).   My daughter, Allie, has developed a love of tea.  She sent me this picture over the weekend of her having tea in her newly remodelled bedroom.   She was drinking Breakfast in Paris tea in one of her favorite thrift store mugs.  This is my ticket to the T-day gathering over at Elizabeth's blog .  To join us, all you have to do is have a drink related post (can be any type of drink).   The neighborhood horses have been gathering in our backyard for some reason. Our horse refuses to come up near our house because the lady who owns all these horses gives her much better treats.  They all jump the fences and visit everyone.  The mule in the picture is actually named after me because I named one of cows after the neighbor (he paid me back - lol). I gave them apples when they came on Sunday, and they have come back every day since - lol....
