Meljen's Designs #107-Ovals!

Whew! I am running so behind today. As I explained to Melissa and Dee, I have just been so overwhelmed with life! April has not been a very good month! So happy to say goodbye to it! LOL

Today's challenge over at Meljen's Designs is Ovals! This was a REAL challenge for me because I own 1 set of ovals! I know this is hard to believe since I've been scrapbooking for many, many years and cardmaking for very long time too! I did try to purchase the regular ovals many times with no success.

Okay..enough rambling..here's my card:

Now..I also want to share a sad, but funny story with you. I got up at 2:30 am to let our kitty out to go "do it's business", at 3am I awoke and remembered I needed to let her back in. I go to our back door to look for her and see what I think is our chocolate lab by the door. I was just about to let her back in when Holly, our lab walks up behind me! I was half asleep..I took a closer look at the lab out there and realized it was a stranger. So, I got my son to go out there with me for a closer look. He was a sweet black lab. He is thin, dirty and is limping just a bit. So, 2 things might have happen. He fell out of someone's truck, or someone dropped him off.
I have notified the local shelter and vet, just in case his owner is looking for him.

Thanks for visiting today! Have a great Thursday!

A Flat Tire & Billy Currington

Now, wouldn't it be nice if Billy Currington rescued me from a flat tire! Well..that didn't happen, it would have been nice though!!
You see, this has been a stressful week. So stressful that I didn't have any time or mojo to make a card this week for Meljen's Designs. :( I asked Dee and Melissa if I could take a break for this week and they understood. Thank you both!!!

You see yesterday, out in the middle of nowhere, well...6 miles from home, I had a flat tire. Flatter than a pancake.
You see:

My hubby was working, my son was at work, and the only one I could call upon was my brother in law who was working near by. Thank goodness for him!

Now..I'm sure you are wondering  how Billy Currington comes into all this. I will tell you:
My daughter has been working on a contest all week:





She entered a video of herself and they are picking 4 finalist in the morning!
 The grand prize winner gets dinner with this awesome country singer AND........gets to sing a duet with him! How awesome is that!?
She is only 18 but is totally in love with singing...and this guy too! :)

Wanna help us out and vote for her? Go here:

Thanks for visiting. I'm hoping next week will be smooth sailing, compared to this week!!!!

Craft Your Passion #105

Good Monday morning to you! If you celebrated Easter holidays, I hope it was a wonderful one!
Today I'm sharing our new Craft Your Passion challenge with you. Challenge #105 has a fun theme...no square or rectangle cards! I have to be honest...I almost forgot about this rule and made a rectangular one...but then re-read the theme and had to grab one of my Tag Shaped cards. I found these at WalMart for 97 cents!!!

Hi there! Well, today marks the 2nd week for our ongoing challenge over at Aud Sentiments, this challenge #51 uses the sentiment "Happy Easter", very appropriate for this week! :)This challenge runs until April 10th. I do hope you will join us!

Card Details: Digi Image-A Day for Daisies, Patterned Paper-My Mind's Eye, Border Punch-Martha Stewart, Ribbon-Vintage, Pearls-The Paper Studio, Cardstock-Bazzill

I really liked this image from our sponsor, A Day for Daisies, because I remember having a small, stuffed lamb as a child and carrying it with me everywhere!  I think I remember my Mom telling me I finally left it at one of the stores we would frequent. Maybe Winn's?  Anyhow...I loved that lamb, and I love this image. This card is going to someone special in my life.......hope they enjoy it!
