Little Red Wagon Challenge #404 Favorite Products

Hi Everybody!
Wow! It's August! How did that happen? But it is also Wednesday which means its time for a new challenge.  Mandy is our hostess this week, and she wants to know what products are our favorite  to use.  Well, I have my favs that I always go to, MFT dies, Doodlebug patterned paper (one of many favs) and of course my embellies like sequins, twine and my glitter pen. But my newest fav is Pink & Main, I used their Tickled Pink stamp set.  That flamingo just cracks me up! I created this card pending my upcoming Hawaii trip!

 Please join us at Little Red Wagon and showcase your favorite products.  I can't wait to see what the other girlfriends favorites are.  Take a peek and leave them with a little comment love!

Have a great week and give someone a smile! 

P.S. Haha, the little green peeking out on the keft side is my post it note I use to list my notes and supplies - I'm feeling a little under the weather and I didn't catch it! Oh well, I just made you smile! 

Little Red Wagon Challenge #404 Sing a Song

Hi Everyone!
We have a new challenge this week, Brenda is our hostess and she's wants us to Sing a Song! Not really sing but create a card that reflects a favorite song.  I picked up this stamp at the Mesa Rubber stamp convention this past spring and I love the chalkboard look. When I heard about this challenge I knew right away that I was going to use this stamp.  I love this old time favorite hymn!  So pick your favorite song and make a card or project that reflects that song, and join us at Little Red Wagon.   I'm sure the girlfriends are all in harmonywith this challenge!

Gerda Steiner Monthly Challenge - Hello Friend Turtle

Hi Everyone!
Someone please tell me where the month of June went!  We were so busy and it's like, where did it go?? We had birthdays (5), an anniversary, Father's Day, 2 out of town weekends and POOF! It's over!
That would be why I'm down to the wire getting in my card for this month's challenge.  This little turtle is so adorable and look at that cute butterfly on his nose! Love it! Well, I was getting lost in Pinterest and came across this card design that I though would be perfect for this card.  You can find the directions and a video at www.stampinbj.com dated May 20, 2017.  Obviously, I did not use Stampin Up! products but I adapted using my own supplies.

Here is my card recipe~

Little Red Wagon #398 Dogs or Cats?

Hi Everyone!
We have a new challenge this week at Little Red Wagon - Dogs or Cats? Unfortunately we lost our little Jack Russell, Jaxson this past February.  I laugh and say he was my 3rd child!   My husband got him for me for Valentine's day 14 years ago. He said I needed something to nurture since the kiddos were leaving home!  I still miss him greatly.  We've decided not to get another puppy for now, I don't think we'd find another pup like Jax.  We have a gray tabby - Fitz, and we are now officially a cat family! He amuses us - when he wants to!
So for this week's challenge Jan wants us to use a dog or a cat, (or both) on your creation! Join us in the challenge, you can link up your entry at Little Red Wagon. I can't wait to see if there are more dogs or more cats! You have until next Tuesday to participate!
Here's my card ~
