Friday Mash Up!

So much has happened in five days...On Monday morning we moved my MIL into a personal care home ~ we moved my FIL in, a week and a half before her...I have been packing and unpacking way to much lately... now a box delivered by a person in brown is totally different ~ Thanks UPS!
After I got home in the early afternoon...I got busy creating these banners as a little thank you gift for my girls ~ I only posted these two pictures as the other pictures didn't turn out very good! I finished creating at 5pm and my girls started coming over about 15 minutes later...we shared dinner together and drooled over the new catalogue ~ thanks ladies for your support throughout the year!





Then on Tuesday I packed for myself...knitting projects, carding supplies (oh what to pack...so I packed almost everything...just in case we needed it), toiletries and a change of clothes....this is where I went with my girlfriend ~ our annual personal retreat at her cottage!




 And this was what I created when we came in from our day of knitting on the adirondack's...we started knitting at 11am ~ came in for a bite to eat at 6pm and then began creating until 1:30am...I NEVER stay up that late...and did we have a blast!! Here's my little stash! And I helped my girlfriend create her card stash as well! She did a 10 card stash! What fun!!!


And two of my cards qualifies for the Friday Mash Up!

Here's your Mashup Challenge:
  1. Create a project using "Hexagons".
  2. Create a "Girly project".
  3. Or Mash it Up and create a "Girly project using Hexagons"

I never did a Mash Up...but this card qualifies for the "Girly Project"


And this one qualifies as well for a 'Girl Birthday Card'


these two cards just scream 'Sugar and Spice' to me!!!


What a fun day of visiting, creating and just spending quality girl time with my dear friend!
thanks so much for stopping by...I hope you enjoyed my little post!



If you live in Winnipeg or the vicinity and would like to host a party I would love to come and stamp with you and your friends!! Or, if space is an issue, come here and create with me at one of my many clubs or classes! Drop me a line for further info! I'd love to meet you! Enjoy your day!

Did you see this new Embossing Folder?  It's from the new Adoring Hearts Bundle and wow!!! what a Bundle this is, we have the Stamp Set, Embossing Hybrid Folder, and the Dies, that work with the Embossing Folder.  So whenever you have an Embossing Folder, that is Hybrid, well, that means you Die Cut and Emboss at the same time...Easy Peasy and AMAZING!!!
