Worlds of Fun and Runner-Up

My sister and I truly did have worlds of fun at Worlds of Fun today ... the weather was perfect and the crowds were small ... we rode roller coasters until we couldn't ride them any more ... a very fun day indeed.  I'll have pictures when I return (no editing ability on this computer).

I was also thrilled to see that my Vintage Children's Cards were the Runner-Up on Card of the Week ... woo hoo.

Woo-Hoo

BookI got two fun e-mails this morning.

First - I won this very fabulous-looking book in a random drawing on Jennifer McGuire's blog (love her stuff).  I often use layout and design ideas from scrapbooking books as inspiration for making cards.

Second, my Rockin' Birthday card was this week's sketch winner on Page Plans

I am so excited that some fun things will be coming my way in the mail.

Now I'm off to the gym ... have a great Sunday.

Snow Snow Go Away ... and Arte y Pico

Crocus

When I get home from the office, I usually sit down at my home computer and start working my way through the day's blog posts in my bloglines feed list.  Today there were so many pretty pictures of spring, flowers and sunshine.  Not here, however ... mother nature played a cruel trick on us today ... yet more snow.  I'm wondering if spring is ever going to arrive.

Art_252bawardMy blogging friend Julia awarded me the Arte y Pico Award which is given to bloggers who share their art and creativity making their contribution to the blogging world.

Here are the rules:

1. You pick five blogs that you consider deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material, and also contribute to the blogging community, no matter what language.

2. List the names of the people you chose to receive the award on your blog and link to their blogs. Then go comment on one of their posts to notify them that you have given them this award and link to the post on your blog.

3. Each award winner has to show the award and put the name of the person who gave them the award and link to their blog.

4. The Award-winner and the one who has given the award have to show the link to the Arte y Pico blog, so everyone will know the origin of this award (it's in Spanish).

I'm passing this award along to:
