I am so excited to share my card with you today that I made for my Guest Design Post at the Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge "With All My Heart". Thank you so much for this opportunity.
I started by using this super cute digi from Saturated Canary called Love Letter along with this fun sketch MFTWSC57. I just loved the craft with the black and red and thought these were perfect colors for the hubby's Valentine...if only I really looked this cute:)

The paper id DCWV Nantucket and the Heart Embossing folder is from Sizzix along with the scroll.

The Sweet Stop Sketch 145

Oh it is a wonderfully chilly Saturday morning here. I so appreciate the cold days after the 105 degree summer temperatures and drought we had. Saturday means another fabulous sketch from The Sweet Stop. I got to use this brand new digi from By Lori Designs Hugs for Hearts that just worked perfectly for the big image panel.

I made a banner to go along with the one on the image and used Basic Grey Sugar Rush Paper. My usual cloud sky was inked with CTMH Twilight and clouds that I cut out.

So I used a crazy amount of Copics so, I just took a picture(this isn't even all of them).

Feel Better Soup

Happy weekend!! I can't believe it is Friday already boy time flies when you are busy. This week the All That Scrap Digi team is using some of our favorite digis to create anything but a card. We have a very special lady that works in the office at school who had surgery this week so I made her some Get Well Chicken Noddle Soup, which is very tasty by the way. I used C.C. Designs Nurse Nora which happens to be my favorite get well image, she is just so sweet. The sentiment is from Sweet 'n Sassy Poppies & Greetings.

I found this cute food safe jar(it said that on the tag;) at Hobby Lobby. My circle Nestabilities worked perfectly for the top of the jar. I typed up the recipe instructions and placed the image behind the words for a little interest, love digis!!

Here are the ingredients that go in the jar.
Chicken Noodle Soup In a Jar
1 Pkg (2.75oz) Pioneer Brand Country Gravy Mix
2 TBSP Chicken Bullion Granules
2 TBSP Dried Minced Onion
2 TBSP Dried Celery Flakes
2 TBSP Dried Parsley Flakes
3 Cups Uncooked Wide Egg Noodles
Pour Gravy Mix into wide mouth Quart Jar. In a bowl combine Bouillon, onion, celery and parsley. Pour into jar to make the second layer and then add the noodles on top. I included 1 10oz Can of White Cooked Chopped Chicken so it is ready to go. Some crackers would be nice too.
And this is what I put on the recipe card:

Feel Better Chicken Noodle Soup in a Jar

Empty contents of the jar into a 4 quart saucepan. Add 8 cups of water; heat to boiling on high. Reduce heat to medium; add (1) 10-ounce or (2) 6-ounce cans cooked and chopped chicken. Cover and simmer for 5-6 minutes or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally.

Makes 8 Servings.

There are still some spots open so if any of you live in Texas I would love to meet you too. You can get all of the info right HERE.
There is also a new challenge up at The CMC Copic Challenge Group.

NEW CHALLENGE #36 will run until February 17th!

Your challenge this time is all about

** COLORS OF LOVE**

In honor of Valentine's Day we want to see you using pinks and reds and whites & creams!

Show your LOVE all over your projects!

We want to see you use YOUR COPICS, ProMarkers, other alcohol markers or Colored Pencils!!

I just love making these treat pulls for Valentine's Day, so fun!! This weeks sponsor is the fabulous Stamp Fairy and for my projects I used Lenny Love. So I have to tell you I missed the part of the challenge that said "red, pink or white" and I didn't realize it until the day the challenge went live. Since I am not much of a rule breaker I quickly recreated a pink version of the pull, too bad I was half asleep and forgot to shadow most areas, LOL.

The Sweet Stop SKetch 144

It's Saturday, yippee!! This week flew by for me, I can't believe it is February already. I am going to have to make this post a fast one. It is storming here and I am afraid of losing the internet connection. Here is my card for this weeks The Sweet Stop Sketch. I don't know how Korin comes up with all of these great sketches every week but I am so glad she does.

This cute image is an old Sugar Nellie Stamp called Daisy and the paper is from the new spring collection from K and Company (love it!!). The sentiment is from Sweet n' Sassy Poppies & Greetings.
