26

this blog post is brought to you by the number 26.

and the colour black.

That's just an inside joke that only myself will get.

lame, yes. lol

You'll know what I mean if I post the photos from

by 26th bday party.

Oh the memories of being 26.

I loved that year!

Here is my card for Mission 026.

You can see what all the girls from the card team created,

and find the concepts we used at Mission to Create

HERE.

It's hard to tell, but the bird is a mirror

from Dollarama. The labybug is a pin from Mission to

Create's September sponser, My Little Bit of Whimsy.

The fence is my new Martha Stewart border punch!!

I also used my Hero Arts cloud stamp,

and some CI real wood paper. Lots of my fave stuff:)

Now here is my card for Twisted Card Sketch 026.

The twist was circles, and you can find the sketch at

Twisted Sketches HERE

My forever friend, Kristi, made me a CD for my 26th bday,

titled 26. It was my fave songs at that time.

I still listen to it!

Highlights include:

You Make me Sick by Pink

Must be the Money by Nelly

Angel by Shaggy

What a long time ago.

craving...

this

the Salsa Burger from Boon Burger:
Canada's first all vegetarian burger cafe!!


This place is my dream. They have so many burger choices.
And I can eat everything on the menu!
The fries are divine too...oven baked and topped
with sesame seeds.


Too bad most of my friends don't want to join me :(

Mission to Create ~Whimsy Style~

This month, Mission to Create is excited to have

My Little Bit of Whimsy

as one of our sponsers. Stephanie creates the cutest

fun and whimsical buttons and embellishments!

Here is my layout for Mission 026!

On my birthday, I dragged Joe and my mom to

Kildonan Park for a walk and some photos.

I grew up pretty close to this park and hardly ever

spend time there anymore. It was fun :)

Check out the sweet ladybug pin and textured button

courtesy of My Little Bit of Whimsy.

If you want to win some buttons AND a prize from our 2nd September sponser (check back to the Mission blog to see who it is) let's see your layout or card using at least 3 of the 5 concepts found HERE.

Staycation - Day 4

I finally go to go berry picking!!

I have been wanting to go for 3 weeks now.

The strawberries were all done which meant

we had to pick raspberries :)

YUMMO my fave!!

Joe doesn't like them much so more for me!

He did think he was the bestest picker ever though.

hahaha

I didn't do much else except a few errands.

oh ya, I started to watch the movie, The Meerkats,

but I had to stop before one of those cutie babies

got eaten, or killed some other way.

I was literally sitting on the the edge of my seat,

and my heart was racing. Too stressful for me!

Staycation - Day 3

Spent a few hours with this little doll!

and her brothers...but once again, they were being camera shy.

She likes to wear the flower on top of her head. lol

She really is the cutest thing ever!

and I love that she loves me :)

Her hair is gorgeous...I wish I got a good photo of it.

Staycation - Day 2

Went to the Forks!

Managaed to bribe Joe into going with the the promise of
some (very greasy) fish n'chips.

Then we wandered around the Antique Market.

Something that we both enjoy doing. Imagine that!! lol

Stopped at a new thrift store on the way home. No treasures found.

Snapped this photo of a dragonfly taking a break on the house.

Staycation - Day 1

Highlight of today was ice cream from Sub Zero!

I indulged in a Raspberry Truffle Parfait.

Joe kept it simple.


Mission 022 at Mission Create went up yesterday.
Here is my take. Loooooved the combo of concepts!
Photo is from my bday :)




other stuff:
The beagle was good today!

I'm waiting on Joe to bring me home a slurpee.
(yes, I already had an ice cream today, but seriously
it's 9pm and still 29C outside and 28 inside my house)

I hope to go berry picking and thrifting tomorrow.

Yay for holidays!!
