I need several thank you cards....So....I was excited to see that CASology's cue card was APPRECIATE!! Be on the look out because my next several cards will be CAS (clean and simple) thank you cards for the CASology challenge.
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gifts from my window...1st and foremost, My windows!! Why because yesterday and today they are finally installing our new windows!! The cypress pond out our living room window, where we daily get a view of God's handiwork!! Our driveway out our kitchen window, where our friends enter!!

I used my Painted Harvest stamp set from Stampin Up to create my Winter Flora for the Less Is More Challenge. This challenge also called for a single layer card. So....using Cherry Cobble, Always Artichoke, and Soft Suede I created a winter flora out of these stamps that are normally used to create sunflowers. I like it....what do you think??
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) Todays prompt is 3 gifts government...I'm at a loss!! Guess the answer for that is prayer!!

Into the woods was the theme for this weeks card challenge from Paper Players. Stampin Up's Winter Woods stamp set and matching dies seemed perfect for this challenge. I love how it turned out!! I decided to make it a Birthday card instead of a Christmas card because I am needing some additions to my birthday stash but I will remember this card and make it in green and red for Christmas!!
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gifts acorn small....My rings, each one (I wear a total of 5) has special meaning and are about acorn size!! The Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon pin that I just ordered that I wear daily to keep reminding me to be praying for my friend Donna who has begun this rough journey!! His eyes...love the way he looks at me!!

Bald is beautiful!! Last night a participated in a shave party in support of my dear friend Donna who is fighting breast cancer...she decided this was the one thing she could control...take it before it takes you and make it a party!! Many miles separate us but our bond of friendship knows no distance!! So this card is in honor of her as she walks this journey...at least she knows that she is not walking this journey alone!! For this card I used the sketch challenge from Fab Friday. Of course it had to be done in pink!!
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gifts orange...Satsumas growing on my tree!! Candy Corn mixed with peanuts and Reese pieces!! Sunsets and Sunrises!!

Today's challenge from As You See It was a speed stamping challenge...create a card in under 10 minutes!! This single layer card took just under 7 minutes. Only two ink pads, one set of stamps, one layer of paper, and a trio of rhinestones...quick and simple!! As You See It also gave a inspiration photo to get your creative juices flowing...their "shades of blue" made me think of water, out came my Seaside notions stamp set from Stampin Up.
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gifts overjoyed...The bonding that has taken place in our small group!! Enjoying the rain that has fallen over the last couple of days...we so needed it!! Overjoyed that our daughter and husband will get to be here over Thanksgiving!!

I usually use both elements for the Fusion challenge...the sketch and the inspiration picture...but today I just used the sketch. I realized that I am super limited in my pumpkin stamps!! This card was especially made for a dear friend who is fighting cancer!!
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gifts on time: His perfect timing in all things, even when we can't see it!! Morning quiet time with my hubby, my coffee, and my Jesus!! Phone calls from my kids...extra special and timed perfectly every time, especially with them living so far away!!
