Stamp With Fun #104 Sketch

OK i'm late i'm late!!! This should of been up yesterday but I had a day out with the kids and a late night date with the hubby!!! WHICH NEVER HAPPENS LOL!!

I had a good time but at the end of the night i told him, please don't do this again, you're taking away from my colouring time lol!! He just started laughing at me :)

WE WENT TO THE CASINO and we lost lol!!!

I played slots and boy was i ever happy winning pennies.I just got over excited for many reasons.One i was thinking i was winning thousands when i was really winning $2 baaahaaa!!!

SIGH.....there goes my copic savings lol!!!! time to start over.

Well it was fun anyways.

Ok enough waffling it's time for another challenge at STAMP WITH FUN! This time we're using a sketch by the talented Tina. I was so short in time i used an image i colored like last year lol! As you can see my card is more plain but i'm satisfied with it.Besides boys hate flowers lol! My image was colored with a combination of copics and my letraset markers.

OK folks thanks for peeking in and as always with my sincere thanks for your beautiful comments.If i could only send everybody a thank you card i would, ((Big hugs))Ruby♥

The inside i used from left to right MIC Wild flower Center, I used Rainbow Meadow and playing there are none other than Edwin with his egg basket and Tilda holding eggs in her apron.

I also wanted to give you an update on Krystalyn's knee surgery.

First off thank you for leaving some nice messages for her and I.



The surgery went very well.Right now she is resting and just yesterday she left her crutches and is now limping her way around.

Soccer is on hold for the moment and hopefully she heals well to get back in it.Her coaches assured her that her spot will be there as long as her recovery is complete.Want to hear something funny well it was weird in a way.When i went to see her in the recovery room. I walked towards her and she just barely opened her eyes and with a weak movement to her hand she points to the ceiling.Her room number was #6 and that is her soccer number.I just giggled and was surprised lol!


That's all my waffling for today and till next time (tomorrow) peeps,Ruby

MY CHALLENGES FOR THIS CARD ARE:

Make it Colourful with the kiddos this time!!!

Morning Peeps!!! I'm late because when i was writing this up yesterday i lost internet connection!!! Ends up our server was down so everything i had typed didn't saved.I had to start all over EEEEK!!!

Guess what it's time for a new challenge at Make it colourful and it's the kids turn whoohooo!!!! The theme is colouring with pink.

When i told my baby that she had to do a card for me the smile on her face was from ear to ear!

I might of told her like a week before she had to work on it to give her heads up.

IT WAS A LIFETIME WAIT FOR HER!!! Everyday," mom when am i going to start and what am i allowed to use from your stuff" LOL!!! (They can't get close to my crafting area ^=^ ) It was the best time of her life when she was working on her card ALONE AND IN PEACE!! I went to put the baby to sleep while she worked on her creation.I went back to check on her and PENELOPE'S leg and bottom of her hair were cut off LOL!!!!

Lauren's heart was broken because she thought she had ruined the whole card.I laughed and said just go to bed and when you come back from school you give it another try.The coloring on her first image was really good and the lipstick didn't really touch her nose! Just a bit over her lip ,lol!

This is Lauren and she is a future mini me lol!

Her coloring was done with two crayons and 3 prisma pencils.The already sparkly buttons were topped with fruit punch Stardust.The green MS punch leaves are trees IN THE BACKGROUND she says LOL!

That's a flower and a heart she drew.

Yeah she's going to love eye shadow make up for sure ,YIKES!

I hope you get your kiddos to join us and if your interested in Penelope from Make it Crafty.Just send a shout to Zoe at makeitcolourful DOT com.

ABC Challenge P is for......

Happy Wednesday I'm back not feeling so well.My migraines come and go but lately they been very strong.On Monday it was BAD REALLY BAD!!! I took so much meds but they weren't cutting it .I almost did go to he hospital because i couldn't take it any longer!!! My Lauren just kept going up to me to hug me and just starring at me because,yes i was tearing lol! My poor baby just kept starring and one time she said to me,"I feel so bad for you mom". The look she gave me was so heart warming and she was certainly concerned about me.My husband wasn't home so i was alone with the kids so that wasn't much help.I always have had migraine problems and they pretty much run in my family.My little sister told me she just got over a 6 day migraine marathon!!! I think I'm on my 4Th day today.I feel OK but just like light headed and tired.I worry though because my Lauren and my son Orlando have migraines too!!! I might have to bring this up on our next Dr.visit for them.

Sad news for my oldest daughter.I forgot to tell you that my daughter tried out for her school soccer team. Well the first day in try outs she got pulled out from the freshman team since she is a freshman. The coaches noticed she had a talent with the ball and placed her in the VARSITY team.The only freshman in the varsity team can you imagine lol!

((♫♪♪WHISTLING♪♪♫)) Ahem!! I wonder where she got that talent from lmbo!!!!!

Krystalyn has only played when she was a kiddo and stopped when she was @3 or 4yrs old.I guess the touch stood with her.Well anyways where i was going.Well i told you all I had to go to the DR. and the visit was for her.For over 2yrs she has been going back and forth to therapy and consults because of her knee.Keep in mind she had surgery on the right knee before for the same pain.After so much therapy and Medications with no good results.It has been decided that she needs to go through surgery again on her left knee this time :( That means soccer is out and she is just heart broken.Her knee just pops every time she takes a step and the popping is painful.The MRI's always come back normal so her specialist said it's time to try the surgery.I will probably be away from blog land for a while. Might come and post my cards but won't be visiting much.Will see how it goes and keeping fingers cross for a good result sigh....

Going to my card :) It's time for ABC challenge and the theme today is P for pearls.Our sponsor this week is Whiff of joy so you better get coloring because you know the prize is GOOOOOOD LOL!

My card will be going to a little girl named Haeli.I wanted to help spread the word and i beg you PLEASE help out.If anything at least spread the word i'm sure it will be a good outcome either way.

Heili is a little girl with ovarian cancer and undergoing chemotherapy.You could read the complete story at Pixie Cottage.I have no idea how i got there but I'm glad I did.

My husband lost his little brother to cancer in 1996. While my husband was mourning his brother i went into labor with my first child.The day his brother Orlando got buried my daughter Krystalyn was born.It was a very sad and yet happy day for the hubby.The crazy thing is the very next day from my daughter's birth.Orlando would of been 12yo just like Heili.(My son was named after him)Brings tears in my eyes to think another child has to go through this painful and ugly disease.I keep picturing his face in pain when it was time for his meds.Take a minute and read the story and hopefully you find it in your heart to help out.

Wishing you well Haeli and once you choose hope anything is possible((tight hugs))

Stamp With Fun #101 Monochrome

Hello friends I'm back again with a creation for Stamp with Fun! The challenge this week is to create something in monochrome Blue. Now i originally thought we had to do something in monochrome with whatever color.When i went to load my card to the group i saw that everybody had a blue mono card going.I thought that is hilarious we all thought of the same color BAHAAAA, LOL!!!!!!!!!!

Um nope it ends up it was monochrome blue so i got so lucky that i went with the blue too otherwise i would of failed miserably lol!! PHEW! Almost messed up on that one!!!

MAYBE I SHOULD CONSIDER WEARING MY GLASSES HUH?!! :) I colored my Ribbon hair Tilda with my Letraset Patone markers all in the warm family.The cheeks were given a hint of RV10 ,the bows were given a touch of B14 and simply touched with Waterfall stickles.I did something different this time on my shading to give the image a nice depth.I was eager to use my new charcoal pencil and just blended it out with my finger very easy:)

My sentiment is hard to read but it says,"Just saying hello friend". On my Magnolia Heart.

I think this is the closest i could get without being too blurry.I hope you like it and have time to play with us.I want to thank you all for the lovely messages and emails .They really sit well in my heart and makes me feel so happy all the time. If you have time to take a gander at the rest of the team please do so as they created such wonderful work.
