I'm A Cowgirl Baby!!!

Hello Friends!  It's time for another Belles 'n Whistles Challenge!  Our sweet Iris is hosting the challenge of "Anything Goes"!!!  Yayyyy!  I love something as simple as that!

Now I couldn't resist using this darling image of Giddyup Horsey!  I think it is ADORABLE!  Now at first glance without color, you'd think it was a little boy .. BUT it's NOT!  It's a GIRL!  And the entire time doing this card, I had Kidd Rock's song in my head .. lol!  But instead of "cowboy" .. I kept singing "I wanna be a Cowgirl BABY!!!"  hehe!  :)

I am also entering this into:
Simon Says Stamp:  Sparkle and Shine (I used stickles on all the polka dots on this cute image, and shimmered all of my flowers for sparkle)

Swimming by to Say Hi

Hello Friends!  How is your weekend coming along?  I hope it's great!  The weather here has been pretty beautiful.  I'm waiting for my next batch of rosebuds to bloom .. they seem to be taking their sweet time.  hehe! 

One of our rosebushes is called "Rock 'n Roll", and it's supposed to be red and white .. kind of like splatters on a painting ... a very interesting rose indeed.  But the buds blossomed and it's only red!!!  Where's the WHITE?!!!  It's not in there!  What's up with that?!!!  lol!   sigh .. my aunt said that each time it blooms it will be different .. so maybe the next time it blooms it will have red and white.  :)  *Crossing my fingers*  hehe!

Well, here's a card I did for fun:

Belles 'n Whistles Challenge

Hello Friends!  It's the start of another challenge week over at Belles 'n Whistles Challenge Blog!  This time Lynda is giving us the fun challenge of "Using Flowers on a card that is NOT square."  Alright, do you want to know that I had a goofy moment when I read the challenge?

I was thinking, "Well, this is easy!  I don't have ANY square flowers!"  LOL!!!  I know you're all thinking, "What?!"  Yea, well, that's cause you all don't have goofy thinking like me.  haaa!  But some minutes later, I was like, "oooooh!  Okay!!!  The shape of the CARD has to be other than a square!"  ... the light goes ON.  I felt a little sheepish.  :)

Here's my card:

Hello Again!  Here's my very first hAnglar card!  Oh gosh, I had so much fun with this cutie patootie!  :)))

Well, in my last post I said I would share a funny story about my little boy.  It's a little embarassing .. for me .. but hey .. everyone needs to share some embarassing times right?  lol!

Okay, well, my hair has started growing back about hmmmm ... the beginning of April.  So, it's growing back ALL over right?  hehe .. and I've been going to doctor appointments to no end and I didn't realize that I had my hair growing back under my arms already (sigh .. poor doctors .. and they have to always feel under my arms .. lol!) Until one night in the shower I saw my underarm and I thought, "Ooooh Myyyy Gosssssh!"  lmao right?  So I shaved it.

Then my little 4 year old boy came with me to one of my radiation appointments.  He came in the dressing room with me so I could change into my gown.  The waiting room with the rest of the radiation patients is RIGHT outside the door.  I literally have to be careful opening the dressing door to not hit a chair.  And my little boy does NOT speak quietly .. for your information.  lol.

I took my shirt off to change, and all of a sudden he gasps, "MOMMMMMY!!!!  What happened to your ARMPIT?!!!!"  He sounded like something was so wrong!  So I'm freaking out right?  And I'm like, "Why?!  What?!!  What do you see?!!"  He yells, "The HAIR is GONE!!!!!!  What happened to ALL the hair?!!!"  And he was very serious!  Can you imagine?!

Okay?!!!  LOLOL!  I almost never came out of the dressing room!!!  I laughed so hard!!  Yep, yep yep .. that's my little man ... such a charmer.  lol!

Anyways .. here's my card:

A Productive Day of Play

Click here for CLP Birthday Blog Hop Post

Hello there!  Hope you're all well and enjoying the warm Spring days!  Do you see flowers blooming in your backyards, hear birds chirping away happily in the shaded trees, lizards out and about enjoying the sun upon their backs on their favorite rock?  Ahhhh, the wonderful feelings Spring brings huh?  :)

This little cutie here "A Fairy Good Rest" makes me imagine a couple things.  One .. she just played out in the sunshine ALL day long chasing dragonflies and butterflies and now she is SO ready for a rest.  lol! 

Or I imagine her laying on that leaf, slowly twirling her finger in the water below her because her mama told her to take a nap .. and she's thinking, "sigh .. I'm NOT tired.  I want to PLAY!"  (But look at her!  She's definitely sleepy!  hehe!)  Does your child tell you that?  That they're not tired but you know they are?!  My little boy says that all the time.  :)

Well, thank you so much for visiting me!  I hope you all have a beautiful day wherever you are!  Don't forget to join us in our current challenge over at our Belles 'n Whistles Challenge Blog .. you have lots of time left to do Anki's beautiful sketch!  :)
