HIMCR #184 - Any Holiday!

Happy Saturday!

Good news! We found a house! Which is really good news because I was starting to get a wee bit stressed about the situation. I mean, I've been doing all this packing with no where to go! We are moving next month with moving already scheduled and we are renting here and have already given notice of our move, end of February! Now hopefully all will go well and we can close in time! :0

OK, I'm starting to stress myself out thinking about this!! It's time for the new challenge:

HIMCR #184 - Any Holiday!

This year we've decided to change our weekly challenge line up. This year every fourth week is going to be Any Holiday! Perfect for those of us that need to work on Christmas cards (or Any Holiday!) throughout the year or perfect for those of us that need or want to scrapbook older pictures from ANY HOLIDAY!!! So be looking for Any Holiday challenges every 4th Saturday!

The sponsor for this challenge is A Day for Daisies!

You are My Sunshine!

I love it when I can stop packing, driving taxi cab service for my children, cooking, cleaning, sorting, handling sibling rivalries, doing laundry, washing dishes, .... You get the picture!

HIMCR #183 - Color it!

Happy Saturday!

Time for another challenge! The week's are just flying by and I'm starting to get a little anxious about our move! We are a military family so the military will take care of part of our move but we are also a BIG family with WAY to much stuff and go over our weight limit. So in order to not owe the Air Force moving money we have to move some of our stufff ourselves! And let's face it, my craft room stuff, Cricuts and other stuff I want to move myself anyway. Anyway, long story short I have only 5 weeks to pack up the stuff we are going to take ourselves! My house is a disaster with boxes, both empty and filled!

 

On with the challenge:

HIMCR #183 - Color it!

Just use whatever you use to color an image! Pencils, markers, copics, crayons! LOL!

The sponsor is 2 Cute Ink

The giveaway is 2 images from 2 Cute Ink

Oh, I forgot to mention that I have been running around trying to get everything done for our move as you know, and I wanted needed to created something but I just wasn't feeling the mojo so I looked at my old print outs of previous Splitcoast Stampers challenges and ended up using one of their card sketches: SC226. Great resource!
