So earlier this week over on the Write. Click. Scrapbook. site my friend Emily Pitts, posted a challenge to lift the ad on the site. Well it took me about 20 min from start to finish. This is a really simple LO, but I like how it turned out. So fun!!
So I am back with another card for today. I love this card. I got up early this morning because I couldn't sleep and I began to play. I used some Pink Paislee from my stash and some Zva Creative pearls. Just yummy! I love this card. Just makes me happy. Hope you all have a fantastic day!!
Today's post will be a bit on the unusual side. I am going to take a break from the cards/scrappiness for today. Here is why:

I am a football fan. I have been since I was a little girl falling asleep to announcers every Sunday watching the Seahawks with my dad. I am Seattle fan through and through, die hard, even if they stink this year. We miss you Mike Holmgren! Anywho, as a fan of football, I can appreciate a man like Brett Favre and his amazing talent. Here is what I don't understand. The fans. Now Favre announced his retirement in 2007 and then later had a change of heart. However, the Packers had moved on to their new QB Aaron Rodgers. Fine, so Favre played with the Jets last season and then signed a 2yr deal with the Minnesota Vikings. Vikings fans were heard all over whining and complaining and yadda yadda yadda about how they can't imagine why the team would acquire Favre! How they were making such a big mistake. What were they thinking!? Well then huh, they started winning. Why? Brett Favre.
His unbelievable talent for making plays happen. Now the Vikings fans are all patting themselves on the back for such a great acquisition.
Now to the game that was played at Lambeau yesterday. We will switch to the Green Bay fans. There were signs being waved in the stadium that had terrible sayings on them. Traitor, they called him. A nobody. Well that nobody beat your team and did it with class. After the game he went and shook hands with Packers players, staff and even coaches. There were differences on both sides, but who ended it and made it the best possible. Brett Favre, my proverbial hat goes off to you.
Not to worry, those of you who aren't the least bit interested in the obsessive sports side of me, my next post will include some scrappy fun stuff!
Okay so I had the greatest intentions to finish this card for the Moxie Fab Ruffle challenge. Well I missed the deadline, so I will share it here anyway. It was a fun card to make for sure. Simple but cute, wouldn't you say?
Have a wonderful day!!
So it has been hard to keep up with my blog lately. I need to be better at it. So I am sorry. So today over at Card*A*Licious there is a new challenge. Three items only. Cardstock, ribbon and alpha stickers were my choice. Mine turned out super simple and that's how I like things. Well my life that is. Here it is! Enjoy! Hopefully I will have more to post tomorrow!
It is a brisk 50 degrees as I am walking my mile this morning. Oh how I longed for these days!! Our crazy hot weather in the summer is now gone and we are into the high 80's! Glorious! So now that the weather is cooling, I am loving the fall and the festivities that come with it. Today I will pull out my Halloween decorations and add some fun holiday cheer to my house. I will share a Halloween card today. All is Pink Paislee aside from the hemp and the jewel on the pumpkin. If you don't have this Halloween line called Twilight by Pink Paislee, go get it! It is FABULOUS!! I did a review on it over at The Scrap Review. You can see that article here.
Enjoy your day and enjoy the fall season!
