HIMCR #141

Hi, all my crafty friends and family!!!

Can you believe the weather we have been having this past week?  Instead of the bitter cold we had been having around here, it actually got up to low 60s one day and mid-40s to low 50s for the rest of the week.  Yay!!!  Maybe winter is FINALLY on its way out.  It seems like this year has just been so cold and snowy . . . much more bitterly cold than I remember from past years.

Anyway, here it is Saturday once again . . . and you know what that means?  That's right!  It is time for a new challenge at Hiding In My Craft Room . . . and this week since it is the 3rd Saturday of the month, it is a "Color It" challenge.  This week's sponsor is The Paper Shelter and the giveaway is a $20 gift certificate to The Paper Shelter . . . how FUN is that?!?!

The Paper Shelter gave us a couple images to choose from along with a matching digi paper for each image.  So I chose "Not Big Enough" for the image I would color . . . and I fussy cut some of the images from the digi paper to use as extra elements on my card.  As for the paper, it is from the Seasons-Spring paper collection from Authentique and I used Lagoon ink from Close To My Heart for the sentiment . . . oh, the sentiment is from "Sentiments" by Paper Smooches.  And I distress the card with Walnut Stain Distress Ink by Tim Holtz.

After looking at this card again, I am ready for my own ice cream . . . hopefully, my daughter hasn't eaten all of it yet. :)

Till the next time I'm up in the night.  Kathy
