Hugs

This week's MFPSpeedyTV Inspiration Challenge (#50) is Surf City Woodies. At first I thought Shirley had pictures of wooden surfboards as I had no idea what a Woodie happened to be. Thankfully she posted some great pictures:




How cool are these? Here is my card - I was inspired by colors and all the curves in the Woodies although after seeing the pictures in a different size and lighting, I see that I was a bit off on my purpley-pink.


I used the new Medallion stamp set (love the image and the sentiments in this new set).

Hope you will come play too!

Hugz!

    Very pretty, Nancy. I really like how you die cut so your medallion carries over to the next cut. Very cool, indeed. Aren't those woodies cute? For some reason, it makes me think of beaches and surfers. :-)

    Love the card. Simply well done. Yes that is a play on words. The photos take me back. I do remember the real woodies. They were still around when I was growing up. Later they were fake wood. Thanks for the trip down memory lane and the great card.

    This is a beautiful medallion and you just showcased it in a stunning way. I DO remember woodies so that ought to tell you how old I am, Maybe as old as dirt, as some would say. LOL Enjoy your week.

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....
