Sorry

Hey Everyone!

I'm sorry to be posting this, but I have a family situation going on at home that requires me to not be spending so much time online chatting and hanging out with my virtual friends and instead be spending that precious time with my husband and kids.  

I will most likely not be posting on my blog for awhile as well.  

I love all of you and have appreciated all the love and friendships I have made with you.  I hope you know that you mean so much to me and I value the relationships I have made with you!!

HUGS!!!

Love,

Rhonda

Swedish Chef Makes Chicken Soup, By Request!!

After I made the Pigs in Space card that I posted a few days ago, I had a couple of my friends (Edie and Ingrid) challenge me to make a Swedish Chef (from the Muppet Show) card too!! This is my take on it:

I went to the A Muse shop and picked up the Pizza Chef and the BBQ Tools stamps to do this. For the tools, I just used a Basic Black marker to ink up one tool at a time and stamped them where I wanted. I was hoping it would look like he's throwing the tools in the air, not sure I achieved the exact effect I was looking for, but close enough. I'm kicking myself for not picking up the A Muse Chicken stamp while I was there too but I had this TCP image that Ingrid sent me awhile back and thought it could work well here!! "In de pot chickie!!!" "Bort, bort, bort!!" The words were stamped with a Provo Craft dial stamp. Both printed notecards are by A Muse and the black CS is by Wausau.

I don't know how to add a youtube video to my post, but hopefully this link will work:

Super Day!

Hello!

How's it goin? I haven't done much stamping since VMAA but I do have this card to share today:

Kind of a silly card, but I was trying to think of fun images that could be riding on the rocket and patch was the first that came to mind. He looks a bit like Clifford, kinda huge to be on the rocket, but still fun I think!! :D

Supplies used:
A Muse Kitchen Red notecard and Reverse Asterix PLP, black and white CS, Memories Black ink, Copic Markers, A Muse Rocket, Patch and Super Day stamps, Triplus Fineliner pen to draw the cape for Patch, CM Precious Metals silver pen, Sponge dauber and Summer Sun ink, deco scissors, star embellies from Michael's $ spot, Turquoise Stickles.

Have a Super Day everyone!!!

VMAA BONUS Challenge Combo

Hello again!! :D

I had to do one last challenge card for VMAA last night/today, this is the challenge, to combine all 4 of the VMAA challenges: masculine, no coloring the main image, sketch challenge and 3 of something. I decided to go for 3 metal embellishments. This card is dedicated to all my GOLF lovin' LOSTies!!! (You know who you are! Beep! Beep!!) :D


Thanks so much for taking a peak at all these VMAA cards, this was such a fun event! I can't wait for the next one!! Thanks so much to Geeta, Michelle and Jennie!!! I'm so happy to have such amazingly fun A Muse friends to do this with!!!

VMAA Challenge C #2

Hey everyone!!

What do you think, does this card win the tackiest card of the year award??!! LOL!! I tend to go overboard sometimes and this is definitely one of those times. In retrospect, I think I shoulda not done the strip of glitter across the card and just did ribbon but, what's done is done!! I got this fun Vintage glass glitter from the A Muse store several weeks ago but hadn't gotten a chance to play with it yet. It's a fun glitter, but I guess I learned my lesson that all in moderation is a good piece of advice!!


I was singing the Fly Me to the Moon song in my head not too long ago and thought about the part where it says "let me play among the stars" and then thought the moon girl and Come Play with Me would be cute together!

Her dress is colored with a gray Prismacolor marker and then I used a Stardust pen over the top to give it lots of sparkle. This card is also another try at the VMAA Sketch Challenge.

Thanks for checking out my blog today!! :D

VMAA Challenge D

Good Things come in 3's!! This is Jennie's challenge for the VMAA night tonight, the challenge is to make a card with 3 of something on it, that's it!!

Here's my card:

Can I just say I'm IN LOVE with the new clear stamp sets that A MUSE just released, Sushi and Nature??? :D They're so fun and so me!! Ok, so I'm not japanese, but I love the style of these stamps so much!! :D I used 3 primas and 3 brads on this card. This is one of A Muse's new notecards just released along with the tree from the nature set. I think this friendship stamp is retired from A Muse, the ribbon is also retired from SU.

Thanks so much for stopping by! This is the last challenge for the night! It sure went by SOOO fast!! :D
