Imagine to bloom and Grow

Imagine a world of purple flowers and pink skies

I'm in!!

This delightful card has an inside sentiment that says, Keep Growing Every Day(forgot to take that photo)

This picture is lousy! I'm thinking about buying this camera-does anyone else have one?  Shoot me some comments about the types of cameras you use. I'd like some feedback.

It has an added wifi connection and I'm not ready to buy one of those BIG cameras--although I sure would like one!  This one is more in my budget...kinda.

I'll enter this card in the color challenge at Color Me Scrappy Blog

There is still plenty of time to complete a paper craft and she has a wonderful prize this month: It's a Tim Holtz distressed marker spritzer!  Only the hottest new tool on the market!!

These colors are just divine, aren't they!  And, look at the photo inspiration-so pretty.  

I have the two shades of pinky purple, the light green is in the flower steams and the purply/brown is the background for the word "Imagine"

I happened to find in my stash this beautiful purple flower patterned paper that fits the color scheme.  

Plus, it fits wonderfully into the challenge at Words 2 Scrap By, this month the theme is "Bloom Where you are Planted." 

I added glossy accents to the flower blooms to add some dimension.  As a side note, the card itself was from a pack of cards from the dollar bin at Michaels.  They were PURPLE and I couldn't resist!  But, then I opened the pack and realized how flimsy and cheap they were.  Now, I've added two more layers of paper to the background purple. 

That's how I roll. 

I forgot to mention in a post a few days ago I did the say thing with a set of $1 christmas cards. I'm sure you guys are so smart you've already figured this out.  It too me a little longer than your average bear.

Pop on over to both blog challenges to add your own projects.

Wino Wednesday Biatches

I can't wait to try this Summer time Sangria.  I love the fruity taste of Sangria, it's crisp and fresh and delightful! Linking up to Wino Wednesday

• 6 cups assorted fruits (such as mango, pineapple, cantaloupe, and apricot), sliced or cut into chunks
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced peeled fresh ginger
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh basil or mint leaves
• 1/2 cup orange liqueur, such as Cointreau
• 1 bottle crisp white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
• Ice
• directions:
• In a large bowl or pitcher, combine fruit, ginger, basil or mint, and orange liqueur. Mash gently with the back of a wooden spoon until basil is bruised and fruit releases juices. Add wine and lemon juice and stir to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour (or up to 1 day). To serve, fill eight glasses with ice and top with sangria.

Anchoring my life

Ugh, it's Monday morning and I really should be working, but instead I'm uploading images to my blog. 

ssshhhh, don't tell my boss. 

It's sounds like I'm really busy because of all the typing I'm doing...

I better get to it. 

This Mother's Day I spent with my family and my mom, cutest mom in the world!
Inspired by this photo, from Cupcake Inspiration Blog Challenge

And, also, the them from this blog: Stamping Celebration, "we are celebrating the sea" challenge

I thought it was very appropriate since our last name is SEAY(pronounced Sea)

Close up of the cruise ship. Stamped with red ink and clear heat embossed, then distressed edges. Entered into this challenge WOW! Embossing Powder Blog So glad I was able to use this stamp set. I've had it forever and didn't have a clue where I was going to use it. 

I've been wanting to use this set of stamps for quite a while.

Inside of the card, isn't that bible verse perfect?!  I love the little anchor 3d sticker I found at Michaels.

so here's a picture of my mom surrounded by her chicks.   Note the sister on the far right...she wasn't cooperating.

someone put a spare tire under my shirt....how did that get there!?

Mondays are a lame way to spend 1/7th of your life

For Sure...
It's nothing personal Monday
It's me not you.

This weekend my dear Mr took me to see Wicked the musical.  Oh my goodness if you haven't had the chance to see this musical-go. Save your pennies, mark it on your calendar and go!  I could see it again and again.

It was funny and enchanting and fast past AND it had a surprise ending.  All good things.
One scene had the "good" witch and the "wicked" witch in a wand/broom battle.

Lots of references in the dialog to the Wizard of Oz, like:
Elphaba(the green witch) says to her sister, "Well, you know, there's no place like home...."

Go see it.

Hoop there it is

Best workout ever!
Hula Hooping! Low impact, joyful, and contagious.
Really.
it's contagious.
Don't you want to pick up a hoop when you see this photo?
By the way, I'm the one in the tiara.
#tiarasrock!

Monday is a lame way to spend 1/7 of your life.
