Thank you

 

It is Monday, let's all hope that it is the best Monday we could have.  Thank you for taking time out of your Monday to visit with me.  I am very grateful.As you may know I have many, many thank you notes to get together and sent out.  The lovely young women at my church threw me and another wonderful lady, who had a baby girl just a few weeks before I had Garrett, a baby shower at the church last Tuesday.  Sadly, I have only gotten one thank you card done.  I guess I better get cracking.Todays card is simple and fun.  I love how easily it came together but I also love the non-traditional patterned paper that I used.  Of course, it only works with boys unless you have some pink camo patterned paper.  I used this layout from another card/blog that I read daily.  If it is yours please let us know and I apologize for not remembering.Since it is fairly simplistic and I should be doing other things I am going to leave you with the eye candy for today.  Have a great Monday!!!Thanks for stopping by!!!

SNR Whimsy Challenge

Can you believe it?  I was actually able to finish the project that I mentioned yesterday.  This may be a first but my memory is so shot that I wouldn't even know for sure.

This is a challenge that they do once a month over at the SNR Card Universe/Whimsy message board.  I think I am late in getting this project done but I just took the time to get over there and get registered.  Yes, it is free to register, honestly, I am too cheap to do it otherwise.

the stamp you need to use for these challenges does need to be a Whimsy stamp, unlike the weekly challenges we have on their blog.  I decided on the hippo.  I am not sure what look I was going for.  I kinda just grabbed things as I went.  The colors are all weird and not sure if they "match", as well as all the patterns and elements I used. 

In fact, my husband was joking with me last night when I showed him the finished project.  He couldn't figure out what a hippo from Africa has to do with snowflakes.  I am not sure either.  I just loved the elements and put them together.  Without further ado:
