My Boy Di-Bo-saur


I am such a sucker when it comes to anything Dinosaur! They remind me of Jackson when he was younger. He loved everything dinosaur. When I saw this cutie over at Teddy Bo & Co I had to have him. I am entering this card in their Sketch challenge. He was such fun to color.

Say no to Crack...

and yes to cake!!!


I have my Father and my Father In Law both celebrating a Birthday! My Daddy's Birthday was yesterday but I can't show you his card yet. He checks my blog and I don't want him to see it before we have his party. My Sister and her family are coming in from Colorado and we are waiting until she gets here to celebrate. You can see that card next week.
This week I am showing you the card I made for my Father In Law. We all lovingly call him "Pop". He is always fixing things and cant stand to be doing "nothing". When I saw this digi from Just Inklined I knew it was perfect for him. I have never seen him in this predicament but my hubby swears he has. Lol!
Happy Birthday Pop, we love you!!!

Sometimes you just need a Friend

Sassy Cheryl's Challenge #55 - Nature


It's Tuesday and that means it's time again for another Sassy Cheryl's Challenge. YAY!!! The very talented and recently another year older Tracy is the hostess and she has picked the theme "Nature". Hope you had a Fabulous Birthday Tracy!
I picked "Gentle Friend" as my image this week. I have loved this image since the first day I discovered Cheryl's artistic talent. It is so versatile and adorable. All these short haired "Sassy Girls" remind me of my Savannah when she was little. Long legs, knobby knees, bobbed hair cut and of course the sassy attitude and sweetness. I think that's why I am drawn to Cheryl's images. I haven't made this one for anyone in particular so I guess it goes into the stash. You can never have enough on hand.
I hope you all will come and play along in the Nature challenge this week. As always, there is a chance you may win a Sassy Cheryl image.
