Hello everyone! Here I am finally after a day of complete slacking, I've got one card done for 2 challenges. Roxie's sketch from our own Kelly was very interesting for me, because it fell in place on it's own. I used a double sided dp I had from Sassafrass (gift from Deena) and used both sides of it. There is but a little square left as scrap! YAY! I used a big size card 5 X 7.
Also today was all about faves at Crafty creations challenges, we were asked to use our favourite stamp,
and it wasn't long before I jumped at the occasion to use yep, my Sweet Maxie.She is a gift from Helen (misshelenstamps) I just think of her everytime I play with her.
In case you were wondering what our Maxie is up to these days, well she has been traveling but staying near Paris. I hear she is serious about this Count from Monaco. Needless to say, I will have to have a long talk with her. You know how it is with these Counts...can't count on them for anything. LOL Will keep you posted. I wish someone would invite her as a diversion from this guy!

LOL!!! Maxie appears once again!! She does travel well, I must say -and never seem to age!! I certainly remember who she got into the scene her on the coast - she loved the Ocean, the funky Vancouver scene, and that little bookstore in Marpole. She was enchantee here in Vancouver!! Now you tell me she has taken up with a Count in Monaca...... but I think he has a child by another relationship - and is dating another lady as well. You might want to have a serious talk with Maxie.......... I see problems ahead!!! OH dear!!
