it's a banner day!

Barb has picked our challenge this week at Seize the Birthday - put your sentiment on a banner. I dug out a vintage Technique Tuesday stamp set which fit the challenge perfectly. I pulled out my sewing machine to stitch the pieces together. To make this process easier - I put all the pieces together on a long thin double sided tape and then ran them through the sewing machine. I put some glitter on some of the pieces but it's hard to see.  Really like how this turned out!

Hope you can play along with us! Check out the blog for the rest of the beautiful creations from the DT as well as our Surprise Party Guest Bonnie and Wheels winner Denise.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Hope you have a terrific day.

It's a banner day!

Happy Thursday crafters!  Hope you are having a great week!  My life is so crazy (wait... don't I say that every time).  I got home from work travel on Saturday and I start my 'in class' sessions for grad school on October 6th... and there is a lot to do in between!

Enough babbling... time to get on with another Seize the Birthday challenge!  As always, it is 'anything goes'... and this week's option/topping is "banners or pennants".  Before I left on my trip, I was able to whip up a banner card.  Pretty quick and simple...

Hope you get a chance to play along!  All the details are on the blog.  Be sure to give some love to the rest of the team!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day and fabulous weekend.  Took a ton of pictures on my trip but wanted to share a couple with you.  The scenery was absolutely spectacular.  Felt so lucky... the first three photos are from Baffin Bay off the coast of Greenland and the last one is from the Blue Lagoon in Iceland.

Shine On

Happy weekend!  Hope all is well in your world.  Life is a bit crazy here with more upcoming work travel and school work but did manage to get a rare few hours today to sit down and craft.

I've been wanting to play along with Lisa Arana's Wanna Sketch for a while and finally got a chance!  This is for Wanna Sketch No. 8 (see sketch below).  I didn't have a ton of time so pulled out some die cuts and one stamp (love Ali Edwards stamps!).  Definitely a CAS 5-ish minute quickie!  Hope you like it.

Thanks so much to Lisa for the inspiration and thanks to you for stopping by.  Have a great week!
Take care,
Glenda

Keep Calm

... and Shoot Something!  Hee, hee.  

Happy Wednesday!  Just a quick little post today.  I'm playing along with the Camera Craze Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.  I love this set from Teri Anderson and Technique Tuesday so couldn't resist using it! This card was super quick and easy... well, once I actually decided what I was doing!  Hee, hee.

Have to thank my girl Jill for sending me the clip and the tape you see on this card.

Have a great week,
Glenda
