Sunday Play Time

It's a bit of a dreary Sunday here - RAIN!  And...that's what's on the forecast all week long :(  Sure doesn't make fun when it's the time of year you want to see snow flurries flying!

First up today is a little cutie for the CAS303 at SCS.  Love the way this little card turned out!  I am such a sucker for little snowflakes and the Snowfall and Snowfall Additions sets from PTI are perfect for me!  The sketch for today's card comes from SC518 at SCS.

Next up is a little card I like to call under the influence of Tamiflu...  The higher my fever went the more crooked my stamping, cutting, and photography got. It's not perfect but then I got to thinking - neither am I! The color combo is from the CC510 challenge at SCS, the layout from Sketch Saturday (ss341), and the Bible verse for the BV14-DEC challenge at SCS.  I really need to work on being still and knowing who God is - and being under the weather kind of forces you to do that a little quicker than planned!!
Have a Happy Sunday! I pray the flu doesn't make a visit to you and yours!

Blessings,
Mary

Long Time no Paper Play

Poor Blog - It tends to have it's seasons and perhaps it turns into more of a paper crafting journal than a "blog"...  My intentions had always been to finish school and then hit the paper crafting wide open every. single. day.  Know what?  That didn't happen...  I have found that being an Oncology Nurse Practitioner takes more out of me than I care to admit on most days...  So my early morning me time - it has been getting filled with running in an attempt to be the healthiest me I can be.  My evenings - they are spent with my loves of course!

On with the papercrafting we go....
Why have I never thought to do snowflakes in purple??  I adore how this turned out with a touch of purple Martha Stewart glitter!  Snowfall and Snowfall Additions by PTI are two of my all time favorite stamp sets EVER!  Such a go to in the Winter for me...  The lovely sketch is CAS304 from Splitcoaststampers - what used to be my home away from home - I sure have missed being there!  I hadn't even uploaded to the gallery in over a year!!!

How about a little MOJO377 just in the nick of time from MOJO Monday??  Another of my favorite places to gain inspiration and lovely sketches!!  I also worked this in to the F4A252 challenge over at SCS - with 5 (yes, 5) full size Christmas trees in our home, it wasn't hard to chose a theme of colors and make a non-Christmas card...even though it is a Winter card!


Thanks for stopping by to visit friend!  I hope to see you again soon!!

Blessings,
Mary
