Some Play Time

My My but life has been kinda chaotic lately... BUT... I quickly made this card last week for a friend at work, he is a Falcon's fan and I of course am a Cowboy Fan.  I HATE Seattle and they are going to be playing the Falcons, SO... since the Cowboy's aren't going to be playing the Seahawks this year, I told Tim that I would jump on the Falcon Bandwagon.  LOL  Thus this CUTE PI card using Football PI and the Wagon full of Friends PI.  I only stamped 1/2 of the wagon, cleaned it and then stamped the back half over a bit to fit the football player in it.  I completed the wagon lines with my Copic multiliner pen.  The football player dude is wearing his "throwback" uniform, thus the red helmet... My PI is wearing her finest Cowboys gear complete with glittery star on her dress.  :)  Sun, Clouds and stars were all created using Dienamics.  Tried the Grass thing that Michele and Jody do and I have some work to do but not too bad!  ;)
Last night I was pilfering around in my paper pads and found this one that I ordered quite some time ago it's called "willow Bee" by Nicki Sivils.  I believe I got it from I heart paper... I hadn't inked up the Honey Bee PI yet, so it was PERFECT for this paper, which if memory serves me is why I purchased this paper pack!  Had grand plans... hmmm, maybe NEXT year!  LOL  The Mini scalloped dienamic was used along with some black $1 bin M's buttons and some Cats PJ's thread.  OH!!!!  DO YOU SEE MY STITCHING????  EEEK!!!!  LOL  It's a combo of not knowing what the heck I'm doing and "crazy stitching"  Did you know that you can't go backward very far on a sewing machine?  I had it in reverse to make the double stitch but apparently it wasn't liking that, so I trimmed the threads turned it around and went down again, thus the larger poke holes at top... **sigh** LOL  BUT... I'm working on it... NO! Those white dashes on the DP are PART OF THE PAPER, I did NOT do that!!!!!  BUMMER!!!!!  LOL
Lastly here is my DELISH Birthday Cake that Dave and Hailey got for me on my Birthday.  Dave cooked Finger Steaks and Fried Taters for Dinner (lurve that stuff) and we ate cake afterward.  It was DELISH and PURPLE!!!!! :)

Hope this post finds everyone doing well and healthy-my cold is still hanging on, what a simple term for this plague kinda sickness that I have.... man it's bad this year... 

It's back to the coal mine for me tomorrow, BE SAFE FRIENDS!!!!!
