Week 5 May 8th It’s almost my Birthday! One more week! Besides my Birthday my favorite holiday is Halloween. I also love bunnies. I found this cute card over at the Folk Art Center in Asheville, NC called Harvest Festival by Debbie Littledeer. It combines Halloween and Bunnies! People who know me from crafting and some past crafty boards my friend Janelle/Tallulah would do a puzzle swap and one year I requested Mardi Gras Bunnies. I killed them with my requests but they nailed it! I know you will nail this challenge too!

Scrappers – Scrapbook a birthday or any holiday, other than Easter, with a prominent bunny somewhere on your new as of today: LO, Card, mixed media or altered item, Oh look bunny decoupage! Remember the bunny must be going to a non-Easter related holiday!
Also, go to Flying Unicorn to play with the Glitter Challenge and Colorful Creations is having a sketch a thon and they served as a jumping off point for my LO tonight.

Stitchers – Well kinda obvious but stitch a bunny! I suppose you may be limited to whatever bunny you have on hand but if at all possible switch out some colors to make it more Halloween, 4th of July, Christmas. Oh wait I’m not crazy! Plum Street Samplers likes combining things like I do! So they’re hares not bunnies, they’re related!
Hare’s Autumn
Hare's Halloween Ohh on my wish list now!
OH and I checked the freebies! Hare’s flying on a broomstick.
I swear one day my house will just be decorated in Halloween Cross-stitch because I will never want to take them down.

Photos- a bunny if you can get it! Or holiday garb with bunny ears ;)
All items new as of today, you will have a month to post your completed project or stitchy project progress with photos of what the item will be when it’s finished!

What are you Reading?

Well Winter Reads is over but I'm still doing book reports! I'm reading a book on blogging for creatives. Maybe I can spice up this blog some! Or at least how to make paragraphs! I still haven't figured out why it is I can enter and tab all day and no paragraphs. I've been scrapping this weekend at Colorful Creations Pot of Gold Crop I'm working on Challenge 10 right now. This photo is of my parents wedding for the 1st challenge green and a kiss. It was the first kiss picture I found and I even went through all my wedding pics! I guess I had scrapped mine already. Since my ferrets have gone I so want another pet. I've been thinking about a cat or rats. Two totally different pets! The rats would be easy to keep in an aquarium but I don't know when the Petco aquariums will go on sale and their bedding and food is reasonable. We've had rats before, Steve had one named Buddy when we met and one named Hercules that the pet store gave to him because its owners couldn't care for it but didn't want it to be snake food. The cat however I have two things I'm considering. One is a friend who brought in an outside cat because it was about to have kittens. The kittens would be ready to leave Momma cat around the first of April. So I could buy stuff for the kitten now and then at PetSmart its 38.95 one time membership and 28.95 a month for a year and this covers all vet and the spay and neuter. However, hubs will not agree to a cat unless its declawed and that would be 250 when it gets spayed/neutered so they do it all at once and keep it over for two days. Of course to keep thinking on this I go into the pet stores and the Petco has a beautiful medium haired black cat named Wallace that is already declawed. But instead of buying the things a little at a time until April we'd have to buy it all now. Trust me those cats go fast at Petco! I swear it rare that I go in and see the same cat next week.

Christmas at the Clubhouse

A most awful photo but hey I scrapped a page. If I didn't I wouldn't scrap tomorrow and try to do a page a day. I'm sure I can find photos if I run out of Christmas ones from the club house. This was for the foil challenge over at Colorful Creations. I used foil from the kitchen and embossed it with my cuttle bug and then colored it with Alcohol ink. The stickers I had with the paper but I don't know what paper company. A friend gave me it a few years ago. I need to find my camera so I can take pictures without my phone. I think the megapixles are about the same but I think I could have managed better with the actual camera. Didn't stitch today. I need to look through patterns and find a free fairy or a fairy alphabet for a friend. I'm trying to stitch the name Ava. Found some images on google but they were part of books and rather expensive. Trying to keep this as cheep as possible for her. Also, I need to start stitching a bookmark for a giveaway I'll be doing on my Zachary Quinto Community Facebook page. Deciding how I'd do it for the blog too.

weekend progress

 I finally did spray adhesive George and Jim!  They're sticky now but at least they're stuck together and not losing bits of themselves.
 A LO I did for Friday Fast Track at Scrapping the Moments and Letter D for Colorful Creations.  Now I have to think of E and F for next month.
 Last night watched Star Trek TOS, Doctor who and did some back stitching.
 Friday I didn't stitch all day like I normally do but I did get a second paw mostly done.  Then discovered that some of the gray is out of place but I'll just have to figure out how to fill in around it.
Stitched a lot on the Love Quilt square.  Hubs is now to the same place where I was at in Bones so we watched that yesterday.  I quit on this when I kept putting the light yellow in the the V heart in the wrong place like three times!  Also had to redo some of the blue but fortunately not all of it.  Maybe on break I can either do the yellow right or fill in the pink.
