A fun Sunday...

   Today is going to be a fun and creative day for me.   I'm still working on some awesome challenges for the Back to School Crop Party over at Simply Scrapping Crafts.  There are so many fun challenges, that I am having a hard time deciding which ones I want to join in.


   My first card today for the Literature Class - Challenge and Amy has challenged us all to create a project that can be related to a book!  You can use the cover of a back as inspiration, the name of a book, you can alter a book, or even cut up a book to make embellishments for your card.  For my card, I decided to create a homemade flower with book print.  I cut out a few different petal shapes, then sprayed them with my Copic ABS in two blue green shades, I then added some 'smooch' paint and glitter to make them sparkle.  My image is another wonderful 'Angel' image from 'A Day For Daisies' and this Angel card was also created for one of the challenges over at the 'Stars & Stamps Blog', in honor of Operation Write Home's - Birthday Bash Celebration!!
   
  My second card was created for Pryn's 'Chemistry Class' and this was our Challenge - (copied over from SSC).  

     I am Pryn and I will be your teacher this semester.  Your first assignment may seem tough, but I assure you it is a lot of fun!  Using the Period Table of Elements, your challenge is to pick one element and use the letters of its symbol to create a formula for your layout, card or project.  
Examples:
He = Helium
The letter H = "Happy Birthday" sentiment
The letter e = Elegant style
Zr = Zirconium
The letter Z = Zoo theme
The letter r = Rhinoceros
    How fun!  For my project, I chose the Element Symbol PD, (which is Palladium) and I used my letters this way !  P for Purple (of course) and D for Distressed.  I created this Purple/Distressed fun Halloween Card as my Submission.


  This fun Purple Witch is also being submitted to the following challenges:

     In addition to those cards, I have two more cards to share and these also were created for a variety of challenges, as outlined below.

    This sweet floral card was created with a wonderful digi image from 'A Day for Daisies'.  I am submitting this card to the following challenges.
 

   My 'True Friends' Card is being submitted to these fun challenges:

  
    Hope you are all having a wonderful day and as always, Happy Crafting!!

I love the colors you have chosen for this card. They are bright and cheery, which is good because the weather has been dark and gloomy where I live. Thanks for joining us at Southern Girls this challenge.
Hugz,

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
