Friday Color Combo #8

It's Finally Friday! I'm so looking forward to this weekend! AND one week from today I'm going to Stampin Up Regionals in Branson MO! I CAN'T WAIT! I have all my swap cards and projects done, packed and ready to go and I will be posting them for you all to see over the next few days :) I have a list made of everything I need to take and just need to get a couple more cards for my digital camera.
So with that said here is this week's color combo and card. Enjoy!


This stamp set is one of the FREE and FANTASTIC Sale-A-Bration sets, So Happy For You.
Gotta love free rubber!
When I was making it I thought it needed just a bit more color so I added Daffodil Delight ink, another one of my new favorite colors!
I'm thinking of adding some more embellishments but I need to get it in the mail, it's one of several designs going to From Our Hearts this is an AMAZING group that send cards to our troops to use for writing home to there families. Go check them out and if you can donate a card (or a box full) they also take card fronts (who doesn't have a box of them sitting around from swaps) and volunteers make them into full cards to be sent off. They also take cash donations to help with shipping the cards overseas and all sorts of card making supplies, a great way to make sure unwanted supplies are put to a good use!
Hugs to all and go get some ink on your fingers today!

Paper Roses

I finally found a charger for my camera! Yea! So as promised here is a new and better picture of the rose box I posted a couple of weeks ago, I did change up the color combo a bit by adding Crumb Cake, one of my FAVORITE Stampin Up colors! I alos added some pearls to two of the boxes, I'm thinking of adding one to the middle box but not sure if I really want to. The are all sprayed with Smooch Spritz in Vanilla Shimmer, I wish my camera would have picked up the shimmer better they are really pretty in person.


This is the one I'm taking as my 3D swap to Stampin Up regionals on the 18th I can't wait to go!

More snow!



After over a foot of snow last week it started snowing AGAIN yesterday afternoon! We now have another 3 or 4 inches on top of what we already had! I took these pics just after the snow started yesterday and the "for rent" sign in the neighbor's yard, you
can only see to top half the rest is buried!
I've made a few small changes to my blog first the new blog address is www.gibsonsdesigns.com the old address of cindyscreativecrafts.blogspot.com will still get you here I just wanted something easier for people I give my blog address out to remember. I will be changing the name on my blog header soon also.
I've also added links to my Stampin Up shopping website and my Artfire studio, I have free shipping this month on there and will be adding new things over the next few days since we are snowed in! I have a new line of spice mixes I hope to get added within the next few days.
I hope you all get some time to get ink on your fingers today!

Winter Snow Storm!

You are probably wondering where the new Friday color combo is and I'm so sorry to say I didn't get it done this week as we have been preparing for a HUGE winter storm headed our way. National Weather Service says blizzard could be worst winter storm in Ozarks since 1912 meteorologists say it's possible that southwest Missouri will get the most snow, ice and bitter cold from one storm in 99 years.
The last ice storm we got 4 years ago we were out of power for 12 days, I just hope that we have better luck this time!
I do have one HAPPY little girl here at home though, school is canceled for tomarrow! Yea for her, now just to find something to keep her entertained with lol
Anyway as soon as I get some time I will post some new projects and a new color combo. If the power does not go out I will have some time to play and hopefully get some new itmes posted here :)
