Hi Everyone!!!

Wow June has gone by so fast...so much going on in my scrappy world. I've doing swaps on the cricut message board and one of most fun ones was the vintage/distressed paint can swap. My partner sent me this gorgeous can filled with all sorts of TH scrappy goodies.




Isn't this an absolutely gorgeous can and then here are a few photos of some of the goodies that were inside the can:




Many thanks to my partner to did a fabulous job!!!!

And, here a couple of photos of the can I did for her:



It was so much fun coming up with a design and then creating the can. One of the best swaps yet. All I can say is that my swapping supplies have double due to the Shoebox swaps and Paint Can swaps I've participated in lately. It has opened the world of Tim Holtz to me, I have to admit before all this I didn't know who the guy was and now I can't get enough of him and his goodies!

Earlier The Month......

MSW had another 1 hour crop. This is where they post six sketches and you have 1 hour to finish and then another 20 minutes to post to gallery at their website. These are always somewhat stressful but also fun to do! And, then it also fun to see what others come up with in the time allotted. So here are my cards I did, I only was able to 5 instead of 6:



This photo is of my cousin Patsy, my aunt Pauline and my mom. My aunt just turned 95 years old on the 13th.



And, here is some other scrappy goodness completed this month:

The shoes are shown because this challenge was to be based on a fashion item.

April showers bring May flowers. Today in Las Vegas, the weather is not bad as it may hit 80 degrees, now if only the wind would stop, so sick of it. These past couple of weeks, it seems like it cold one day and then it hot the next and its been non-stop windy. I am so ready for the heat, I guess that why I live in the desert.

The STSB Round 8 swap ended on a great note and I have lots to play with thanks to my swap partner. MSW had a 1 hr crop last Friday so I did managed to complete the six challenges and did a couple of extra cards afterwards. I was also able to complete a layout challenge this past week. To finish April, here is some scrappy business I took care of, mostly cards.
