Vicki Chrisman's Card Challenge

Vicki Chrisman's Card Challenge
I had the opportunity to participate in Vicki's Card Challenge this time around. She put this beautiful basket of goodies together and each participant received one of the packages in the basket. We were to make a card, altered item, or a layout with what was in our goodie bag. The images in the bag came from www.craftysecrets.com.

Here was my goodie bag.


Here is what I made from the goodie bag. What do you think? I love the little vintage boy and dog. I used some glimmer mist on it to give it a leather look.

Starting July 7th or so Vicki is going to show all the cards that were made with the bags that were in the basket. You can see them on her blog at:
She has some awesome work on her blog. She is on quite a few design teams. I am hoping to meet her at CHA this summer when we go to Chicago.

Enchanted Rock





Oh my gosh it was hot. We went to Fredricksburg for the weekend just to get away from SA. A friend of mine had told me she went to Enchanted Rock and thought it was pretty. We decided to venture out. We wanted to get to the top of this huge rock. Well we got about half way up and I thought I was going to die. It was soooooo hooooootttt. It was very pretty. Going up was easy but coming down I thought I was going to have to roll down. That would have hurt. I made it down but after I stopped every few feet down.
