Drunken Stampers Challenge 139 - Place / Campsite

Can you believe we are in the last weekend of the summer?? Where did the time go?? Happy long weekend to everyone celebrating Labour Day this weekend...an extra day off work woo hoo!! 

This week Team Yellow Canary are back in action bringing you a PLACE challenge, and what better place to be on a long weekend than a campsite?? So pack up your gear and join us for the challenge! Be sure to visit the DRUNKEN STAMPERS BLOG for all the details on the challenge and to link up your project by 11:59 pm PST on Friday Septemeber 6th! Maybe you'll be our next Life of the Party!!!

I call my card "An Ode to Jessi"
Jessi is a stampin' sistah and fellow Drunken Stamper, she had a not so fantastic camping experience this summer so I thought she would appreciate the "are we having fun yet" sentiment.

SUPPLIES:

Kraft cardstock

Tim Holtz alpha tiles 

We R Memory Keepers "Happy Campers" paper pad

Momenta stickers

Thanks for stopping by this week and don't forget to show Team Yellow Canary some crafty love!

Proud Momma Moment...

We've been busy unpacking in the new house...today I wanted to unpack and organize my craft room. My little helper came in to help, but quickly became more interested in all the punches...I mean they are pretty cool right?? Even to a ten year old boy.

 
Before long he was cutting out skulls with the cuttlebug, a boy after my own heart :)

So while I was busy unpacking, he got busy pulling stuff out of boxes (ever so helpful) and made me this awesome bookmark.

Drunken Stampers Challenge 137 - Thing / Twine

Not sure if I mentioned that I am moving this week...so most of my crafty supplies have been packed up...luckily I still had a few things on hand that worked perfectly for this challenge. This card will be gone in the mail to a friend by the time this posts...she knows who she is...and she knows she's in my thoughts.

Drunken Stampers Challenge 135: Person / Athlete

Woooooo hoooooo the Drunken Stampers are back for another term of crafty awesomeness!!! This term I am part of the Yellow Canary team - who knew there was a drink called that??? My Yellow Canary teammates are:

Barb

Jacki

Jessi

Lindsey

Lynne

Vicki

Be sure to visit their blogs to share the crafty love!!

This term all of the Drunken Stampers challenges are going to be based on a Person, Place or Thing, and you will have options for each challenge. For example, this week's challenge is based on a person, specifically an athlete, so you can use an athlete or any sport as your inspiration. 
 

For this challenge I knew right away what I wanted to do, my cousin Alley is having a baby in October... GO TEAM PINK!!! and I wanted to make a card for her baby shower using the same colours and papers as the shower invites we made. I also knew that since the baby's daddio is a big hockey fan, I wanted to make a jersey with their last name on it and the number 13 (which is BOTH the year she will be born and my lucky number).

 
After I made that card, I thought it might be fun to make a matching one in blue for our adopted son Joel who will be coming home on August 14th. His has the number 18 for the date of his birthday, which is also his lucky number.

 

Here's a picture of the two cards side by side:
