Delightful Inspirations...plus...plus

Weekly Challenge
is a bit different this week.

Faith has been busy with
Vacation Bible School
and didn't have a chance
to create a new image.

Soooo....
Faith give those who took part a code
to purchase a image from her store.

So the challenge is anything goes.

is
Buttons, Buttons, Buttons.

So I made 1 card to fit both challenges.

Then I needed to do 2 Outlawz Challenges
so I made sure the card fit those challenges as well.

Here is my card....

HappiLeigh Scrappin Shape Card Challenge


This week's challenge is hosted
by Leigh!

Leigh loved our
shape card challenge
from a while back
and decided to do it again.

A couple of quick notes...
First Leigh is having a wonderful sale.
Buy 3 images, get one free.
Buy 6 images, get two free.
ETC. 

Now you can use any image you like.
But there are TWO bonuses for
using a HappiLeigh image.
First you double your entries
in the weekly drawing. 
PLUS!!
Everyone using a HappiLeigh image
will be placed in a separate drawing
for free images.

Here is what I did this week for
Shape Card.
Leigh said anything
but square or rectangle.

This is a Twisted Easel Card.
We have all seen easel card,
but this one is twisted. 

I used Leigh's new image
Daisy Teapot.

This is one of the rare cards
where I put the card together first
and then found my image. 

Hope to see your entry!!
Hugs, love and prayers

Beauty

This week's
image is called

This was a difficult image for me.
I couldn't figure what to do with it.
Then I remember the

stamps on your card. 

I am not in love this card.
3 attempts are in the
trash can. 

Here's the final card...

Craft Room...re-design

Saturday Larry helped me re-do my craft room. 
All of the things we were storing in the room,
have now all found homes.

I have a serious craft room now. 
All it took was moving what was there around.
Now I have 3 work spaces.

Of course this used to be the bird room
when I was breeding birds.  
I need new decor now. 

Here is the view from the door.
I use the table in the middle to color




Printer, paper rack and desk.


My desk.


What I would like to call...the embellishment center. 
Most of my embellishments are within reach here


Thanks for taking a tour of the what used to be
the Corner. 

Hugs, love and prayers
Chris
