PPA 273: Leepin' Leep Frogs!!

Hi stampers!!  Look at this fabulous sketch this week!!  This really had me stumped!!  What in the world was I going to make?  Then I saw these cute little frogs from "You're Sublime"!  Aren't they just adorable!!  The "reeds" are the little ferns from "Awesomely Artistic".

I hope you enjoyed my post today.

PPA 271: The Sweetbriar Rose

Hi Stampers!!  Welcome this week to Team 2 and our awesome color challenge!!  I decided this week to include the simple, yet nostalgic, Sweetbriar Rose on my card.  This rose is such a trooper even into the Fall.  I can remember seeing this shrub grow wild in West Virginia.  It can even be considered a nuisance!  However, I believe it shows strength, perseverance and endurance.  We all need a little of those qualities in our life!

Here's my card below:

I also used the dragon flies from the Awesomely Artistic stamp set. 

To see a dragonfly in your dream symbolizes change and regeneration. It may also indicate that something in your life may not appear as it seems. Alternatively, the dream represents instability, flightiness or activity. You are always on the go.  Hmmmm....very interesting!!  

Now those are some words for thought.....

I hope you enjoyed my post today.

PPA 265: The Wilderness Awaits

Hi everyone!!  Today's challenge leaves us with so many options!!  These days I'm feeling rebellious,  restless and ready to roam.  While I was sorting through my stamps, I saw The Wilderness Awaits.  I instantly new this was the set.  Seeing the Elk climbing up the rocks just spoke to me.  I'll be moving in my near future and I want nothing more to go out into the woods and just climb to the top of a mountain.  I want that feeling of seeing the world and knowing it's out there ready to explore once I'm ready.  Here's my card below:

PPA 263: My Summer Garden

Hi stampers!!!  Look at these fun colors!!  Perfect for summer!!  With summer here for just a short time longer; I thought I would pull out my new stamp sets "Gift from the Garden and Awesomely Artistic."  They are both of my favorites!  So many possibilities!!

Here's my card:

I'm not ready to let go of fresh veggies and colorful flowers yet.  I love to see the growth of new life from the land.  Sounds like I need to start planning my Fall garden.
