Raise The Bar Challenge 106

Happy Saturday!

Hope you have had a wonderful week and a wonderful weekend ahead. I am in Baton Rouge for the Memorial Day weekend visiting with my sweetheart. Seems like I have been on the road quite often the past few weeks and still have quite a bit of traveling to do in the next three weeks or so.  Home always feels so good when I land there!

My card is for this weeks Raise The Bar Challenge~ Congrats (as in Grad cards). It is definitely that time of year! Everywhere I turn I am seeing those graduation gowns, lol. I decided to try a fancy fold card called a spring card. It makes a great graduation card. You can find the instructions in the resources section of Splitcoaststampers.

Come on over and join us at Raise The Bar for this weeks challenge. Check out the other DT samples too!

Happy Friday!
Hope you have had a wonderful week! I made a quick trip to Miami on Tuesday and I am off to Tennessee tomorrow. Spending time with my Mom for her birthday and my daughter is needing some wheels... I dread going car shopping. Not on my "favorites" list by any means, lol!

With it being Friday, it is time for the Raise The Bar Challenge #105. This week it is ~Celebrate the Military. Let's do a shout out for those that serve our country! The layout is from this weeks MoJo Monday Sketch Challenge #241. 

Isn't she just the sweetest? Come on over and join us at Raise The Bar! Check out what the other DT members have created this week.

So glad the work week is about over. I just got home from a trip to Baton Rouge and Las Vegas last Sunday and I have spent this week playing catch-up.

A Pacific Celery Cake

Happy Tuesday Everyone!
I know you are wondering what is going on with the title of my post, lol. It is time for the SCS Color Combination Challenge and I am the hostess this week. I chose the colors of Pacific Point, Certainly Celery and Crumb Cake.

 My fellow DT member, Mary, is visiting her family in California and she helped me with the title of the challenge. Seems everyone on the Pacific coast is into healthy eating so we are having "celery cake" today. I chose the dessert option of a wintry or Christmas card, as I have been wanting to case a card I saw quite some time ago by dizzymommie on Splitcoast.

My sweet snowman is colored with Copics on Blending Card, cut out, and attached to the crumb cake base.

Stamps: MFT PI Frosty & Fabulous Snowman, MFT Clearly Sentimental About Christmas

Paper: Crumb Cake, White

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: Copics B00, B02, B05, G40, G43, YR12, YR16, YR68
