Hello stamping friends!! I hope you are having a lovely weekend so far! I sure am ready for the weekend to begin!!
As if loosing my PC on Wednesday and my website's server for the store went down on Thursday for 4 hours, friday night the internet connection went down for the laptops as well!! After 30 minutes on tech support, it was an easy fix - I'm just tired of so many different non-related computer issues 3 days in a row!!
And on top of that, my son came home on friday asking what my teacher said when she called to tell me that Ryan bit another boy at school!! Well the teacher didn't call, so I don't know if she will call later or if she thinks she handled it at school already! What I got from Ryan (who was very remorseful) was that a boy in his class is always bothering him and he kept touching Ryan today and tickling him. So Ryan bit his finger when he tried to touch Ryan again! Then is sounds like he went to the Principle's office!! Great! Again, I am only going by this from his side of the story since I haven't received a call or a note yet!
Ryan says this boy is always getting into trouble so I can only hope that Ryan was pushed past a point of reason instead of just a malicious bite! But we have told Ryan that he will write a note to his teacher and the boy apologizing.
So do you see why I'm ready for this week to be over?! Ug!!
Therefore, let's move on!!
It's time for another Scrap and Stamp Saturday Challenge!!
This week's challenge is to use: Numbers.
Easy enough for me to do!
Our sponsor this week is The Cutting Cafe.
Here is my double layout...
This is Ansley's first day of 3rd grade!! What a big girl!!
The left side...
The sketch for the left side is from Creative Scrappers Sketch #121 this week.
The right side...
The sketch for the Right side is from Scrapbook Challenge Sketch 217.
I used some Basic Grey Olivia 12x12 paper including some of the die cut stickers and embellishments, PTI Butterfly stamp set (some butterflies are cut out added buttons and added with dimentionals), some punches, "Ansley" personal stamp (I bought at a craft fair when she was just an infant - before I ever knew about the stamping and scrapbooking world!!), lace, Prima Swirls, and Thickers chipboard letters.
The stamped image is Apple Emma by CC Designs...
The image is embossed in black and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os.
I did a lot more layers on this layout with the embellishments than I normally so, and I think it turned out ok. Sometimes I love the look, but can never achieve it on my own.
Ok, not it's your turn!! Just remember that you must use at least one stamp on your layout to be entered into the drawing for the sponsor's prize.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!!
