Probably....Probably Not....

Happy Thursday. This post is late because I have been extremely lazy today. It's been a long couple of weeks here in Sherryland. I've been busy, but not just with work. I've had a lot of fun and good things happening too. Sherryland is a good place to be right now.

I made today's card for this week's Clean and Simple (CAS) challenge on SCS. The challenge is an inspiration challenge- to choose some Retro Candy from this SITE and make a card inspired by the picture. I chose this candy because....well, the box is just pretty.

Here is my card inspired by the Retro Candy:

I may have gotten carried away with the card- I just love pink and brown but Clean and Simple is difficult for me. Is it cute? Probably. Is it Clean and Simple? Probably Not. LOL

Stamps: Artful Inkables Birthday Best
Paper: SU Pretty In Pink, Close to Cocoa; PTI white; DCWV Sweet Stack
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
Accessories: Nestabilities, Circle Punches (1 1/4, 1 3/8), Ribbon

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you come by tomorrow for some Friday Fun. :)

VSN- The Mini Olympics!

Happy Sunday! I spent a lazy day yesterday (I needed it) as we got approximately 8-10" of snow yesterday. To some of you that may not sound like a big deal, but since we rarely get snow here it shut down the town. :) I will try to go to work today- we'll see how the roads are. My Knight in Shining Armor (Jeff) will come dig my car out and drive me if necessary, but I am still concerned about the gas trucks going on the road.
I did manage to play one challenge in the VSN mini before SCS got too wonky. It is the Opening Ceremonies Challenge to choose a Country's flag and make a card with those colors. I chose Belgium whose colors are Black, Red and Yellow. Due to the 45 minute time limit, I kept it simple. I thought this cute Pirate set from Unity would be perfect for these colors and this set needed to be inked up. :)
Stamps: Unity- Pirate madness
Paper: Kraft, Black, Cosmo Cricket Early Bird
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: SU Scalloped Border Punch; White Gel Pen

That's all I have for today- if you want to play along with the Mini VSN, you have until Midnight Monday, February 1st. Thanks for stopping by!
