Oh my babies are everywhere. Do you remember when you bought your first car and then all you saw was cars like yours?? Or when you were preggers and everyone and I mean everyone is having a baby too! Well thankfully I am not but that is all I see....and in this weather...yikes!!! A woman at work had her baby 5 weeks early! It is a good thing I had her shifts covered!!! Here is a baby card Michelle made...Aren't the colors great??

Michelle and I must be in sync! Well close to it anyway! This is the card she made a few days ago and while I was taking the pic of it I saw my Glads in the background....the rose red in the card looks so much like the color of my flowers it made my day and I wish I could keep the card! Thought I would share that with you!! Thanks for looking! Have a great day...go buy some glads!

Second Color Challenge...oh ya baby...it is a hard one!

Here is Kathy's card. I saved it because this is the paper that inspired our 2nd color challenge. Kathy has picked this challenge and there was a twist...Here is what Kathy sent us...Hello girls! This is my colour challenge!! I love these colours and I think they are an unusual combination. Old Olive, More Mustard, So Saffron, Very Vanilla, Whisper White, Regal Rose, and of course Rich Razzleberry!!
Now here is an extra challenge for you but only if you are up to it, because it is not for the faint of heart. This combination is to be made into a Christmas Card! Yes you heard right, Christmassssss. If you like you can throw in some glitter, I'm just saying. Again I think the challenge will be more fun if you don't talk amoungst yourselves!!! Have fun with this challenge and we shall see what exciting things you come up with.
So of course Michelle and I were so excited ....and scared! So If you want to join us in this challenge send your cards to my email by AUG 19th 2009..I know that is lots of time but I will send our reminders...now the first is the paper the colors were taken from ...then Kathy just had to make this cute card out of it!

Purpleish trees...

This was another paper I got a few days ago.. just tress but I thought they were so fun! What do you think?? I when to the eye doc with my 10 year old and she asked for contacts...her glasses are pretty thick and all she wants to do is wear fun sun glasses like everyone else!! So guess what we are getting....yep I am a sucker for my girls...If it makes them feel better about themselves I will do it...I want them to be confident, smart and kind.....so if contacts help with one of those...so be it....
