SUPPORTING THE TROOPS

I made this card yesterday for the anniversary of 9/11...always an emotional day of thinking back and looking forward. I try to always look to future and hope I see a brighter future ahead. Sadly for many Canadian and American families the future is all to murky. To all soldiers serving and at home...THANK YOU...for your service to country, your fortitude and your guts! My hat is off to you. God Bless you one and all.

I used ©HerkyBird in camo to fly over an image I created on the computer of my country as a flag and the American Flag at half mast. I paper pierced a star and a maple leaf in the background and added a line from our Canadian National Anthem as the sentiment...it seemed just so appropriate. The Support the Troops ribbons are from the interweb. Onward and upward we go...time to soldier on!

CARDS I PROMISED LAST WEEK...

Hello All!

Here are the cards I promised last week. They have been sitting very politely on my desk waiting for their moment in front of the camera! I FINALLY took their photo's today. The challenges these were to be entered in are of course long over. The sketches remain terrific though and I will be using them over and over.

SAVE THE DATE

I quickly whipped up the Save The Date chart on my 'puter using my word processing utility. I used ©Clammy Pete on this one - Clam Bake - is the event of the day and ©Clammy Pete is wondering if this is an invitation or if he is a menu item!! What do you think?!!! LOL

SMOKING PROHIBITED

©HerkyBird is reading the riot act to his passengers! I guess fair warning is warning enough huh??!! What do you all think of what I did with the ribbon on this one? I love the crinkled ribbon look of the "stapled ribbon technique" but can't honestly say I like the look of the staples themselves. So I did the crinkled ribbon and used random glue dots to hold it in place. I am pretty pleased with the end result...what are your opinions? The sentiment is computer generated and made me giggle because when we were on our last flight "together" (hubby travels far more than I do) the flight attendant advised all smokers that they were welcome to smoke on either wing during the flight!! ***Snicker***

SODALIGHFUL

©Tipsy McStagger has been morphed into soda mugs full of Cream Soda and Grape Soda! What do you think>! I think they look yummy! I used last weeks MMSC for the layout of this one. I really like this sketch and can see myself using it again & again. What do you think of ©Tipsy's alter ego ©Topsy McStagger??!! She is sporting some long eye lashes rosy red lips! The bottle caps were computer generated. Hope you like this one, I am very pleased with it!

WHAT'S YOUR VECTOR, VICTOR?

©HerkyBird once again, this time with last weeks MOJO Monday layout (I believe). I used a quote from the classic movie "Airplane" for the sentiment. The yellow airplane is actually a button I picked up at the local Walmart. Hope you like this one.

Thank for stopping by everyone. I apologize again for being a bad blogger. I think I am getting back on track. I am heading to my card room with lots of idea's and sketches. Lets see what I can create today!
