How We Camp

I hope you all had a nice holiday celebration! We didn't do much, as we only returned home from camping a week ago. We enjoyed the fireworks, and that was about it.

I saw this pickup camper at Rubbernecker a while ago, and knew I had to have it...as this is how we've been camping for years.

Stamps: Camper (Rubbernecker), Essential Sentiments (MFT)
Card Stock: Bazzill from "Winter Wonderland" selection (at Lizzie Anne Designs), White, Pheobe (BasicGrey)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Green Galore, Copic markers, Spica Glitter pens, Stardust GellyRoll pen
Accessories: Rectangle Nestabilites, Alpine Ribbon Originals (retired SU), Scotch Foam Tape

**Most campers are white with fancy graphics, so I just lined the camper with my C1 Copic marker so it doesn't look so plain (can't tell in the photo). I didn't get brave enough to attempt the graphics...so there you have it.

This may seem very small for a family of five, but our kids are still small enough to make it work (for now anyway). Three can sleep in the over the cab bed area, and two sleep down in the dining area (where we drop the table). Even for it's smaller size, this thing is loaded with lovely comforts (refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, air conditioning, hot water heater, bath with stool, sink & shower, kitchen sink, CD/radio, cable hook up, lots of plugs for our gadgets.) We have been discussing what we will get when we need something larger, but we are still undecided for now.

Do you camp? I would LOVE to know what you all are using!!

This is a picture of our site after we set everything up. We pitched a small tent to store all of our clothing, towels, etc, in for easy access. We also put up a screen room for a covered area over the picnic table. It works out really well for us!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!! Enjoy your Sunday!!

Carte-licious with Beate's Sketch

This is a double challenge card that I made for our Carte-licious challenge, along with Beates' Sketch. Melissa sent Sue and I these adorable Holiday Margarita images, and I thought it would be fun to try it with Beate's WSC54. The the cute sentiment is from Rubbernecker, and the patterned paper is from my Figgy paper pack. I colored with my Copics and added lots of sparkle with my Spica glitter pens. My Labels Trio (Spellbinders) was used for the sentiment, and Circle Nesties for the main image.

Thank for stopping by today! Please be sure to check out Melissas' and Sues' blogs to see their wonderful creations with their Holiday Magarita!
