You Rock!

When every I see a gnome image I always think of this saying. Guess because they are generally made of rock. Anyway, this was for a mystery image swap on one of my groups. Fun challenge, the hostess sent us all the same image and then we need to make a card with it and send it off to our partner. I have to admit I was a bit stumped with this. I was not sure where to go with it, you see I really have a difficult time with an image that I did not stamp! Weird, I have joined many image swaps over the years and they are all still sitting around in the envelops they came in. Every now and then I open them and looks and say "oh, I love that image"--but then I put it back in the envelope and move on, lol. Anyway, I look forward to doing more of these challenges. Here is my card.




This little guys really is cute! I loved the layout but it sure seemed like the three strips needed something but I could not figure out what. I thought that stitching or piercing would be too much. But it still seems, well, plain. I have no idea who makes the gnome images and the words are done by hand. All other products are SU.

Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge #7


Oh my goodness, I almost miss this one. My browser is doing funky things like grouping my e-mails and I didn't realize it. So I am finding e-mails that come in today mixed with e-mails that came in days ago and they are grouped so I only see the first one unless I click on the little x! I can not for the life of me figure out how to stop this! If anyone has any idea please let me know--I use Thunderbird and it is constantly updating itself and changing things. Anyway don't miss this adorable card by

I told you it was cute!
