Bubbles Galore!

gotta use bubbles today for the 365 Cards challenge. it's day 133 already! time sure does fly by! my new Hero Arts stamp called 'large artsy circles' sprang to mind, and my lovely mermaid stamp as well. what better says 'bubbles' than something ocean-y? yes i know that's not really a word, but this is my blog and i can say whatever i want! hehehe!

so what's everyone doing today? saturday's are fantabulous! hanging out with my hubby in our hobby room, a little shopping later... great day! and it's so incredibly sunny out, what could be better? i hope you have good times whatever you're getting up to this weekend. i'm off to prepare myself for an outing.

stuff used:
paper...
green tea, cyan, and white cs
stamps...
Hero Arts - large artsy circles
PSX - mermaid
ink...
VersaColour - cyan blue
extras...
EK Success - corner rounder & Swiss Cheese border punch
1/8" circle punch
Bacis Grey - opaline 1/2 pearls

Cuttlebug - spots & dots embossing folder

cheers!

finally it's Friday!

happy friday! it's weird that even though i'm not working right now, i still long for fridays to come along! maybe it's more for my husband so that he can be home hanging out with me. except for this weekend - he's off on a boys' weekend of quading and golfing. but i'm not jealous... really!! (grin)


today's card was made for this week's challenge on the Hero Arts blog. they had a Win-A-Day on the blog contest, and chose 5 readers/card contributors to each get a day on the blog with one of the Hero Arts design team artists all this past week. what a cool contest hey?!

i have been working on wedding themed cards the past couple of days as i will be taking cards to sell at a cool art gallery downtown called eclektica. i was there on wednesday night for a wine tasting & networking event, so i did some... networking! hopefully some card sales will come of it!




















have a fab weekend! i hope we have some nice weather - heard it might rain here. if it shines i'm going to break away from my craft desk (for a little while at least!) and hang out in the yard under the umbrella, a nice cold bevvie by my side!

stuff used:
Hero Arts stamp - floating leaf
Stampabilities - love is a fruit...
cream & speckled green cs
Slice machine - animal crackers & noteworthy design cards
Cuttlebug - swiss dots embossing folder
versamark ink
Hero Arts shadow ink - sage
Draggin' Ink EP - aegean blue
Michaels - pearl stickers
Making Memories - acrylic polkadot frame

cheers!
