PPC-CC #50 & Card Patterns #104

I am truly so short on time lately it's insane! I apologize folks for the late post. Usually I can manage to get the new PPC post up at 8 AM but alas, I couldn't even get it posted on Monday. It's officially Tuesday already and I'm just ready to climb into bed. In case you missed out last week, we're celebrating some major milestones over at PPC-CC! We're up to our 50th Color Combo and also we just had our 1 year blog anniversary! To make the celebration even more fun, Megan decided to have another design team call! Visit the blog for more details! Trust me! Entering is SUPER easy. I've combined this week's colors with Card Patterns Sketch 104. This super cute card was made for my friend, Marilyn's birthday. She's such a young-un. I love it! Happy birthday Marilyn! 

PPC-CC #14 & CPS #65

Boy this week Megan sure put up some challenging colors for me over at the Picture Perfect Creations Crafty Challenge blog. I never use these colors and I mean never. I don't think I have ever inked up my Handsome Hunter pad and I'm sorta glad it's retiring! I decided to pair up this week's challenge with Card Patterns Sketch 65. I'm not entirely happy with how the card turned out but it's way too late to make another card. 

Boy the more I look at this card the more I don't like it one bit. Bleeeech! I'll have to give it to someone I don't like.... jk!! Hope everyone has a great Monday! 

We've had a busy weekend with garage sales and cleaning. I even managed to fit in 30 minutes on the elliptical. Longest 30 minutes ever. Jamie on the other hand, had time to make some bread for us to eat!
