"Survivor" night - week 6

Oh wait, there was no "Survivor " on this week. Cardzgal and I got together anyways....because of course there was "Grey's Anatomy" and "Private Practice" to watch. So no ranting about how I think Coach should be voted off the island (but of course I do think that- maybe we'll get lucky and on the Wednesday night show he will go).



So we had an early dinner at cardzgal place, "specials" from one of our local chinese food restaurants. Then it was off to her craft room to do some stamping and make a card or two, instead of watching "Survivor". I'll have to get pictures of our craft rooms sometime to post here. We decided to stamp Magnolia's, the ones that the other did not have.....don't we play nice together...LOL. Then we went to work on making a card with a Magnolia stamp. Cardzgal used Tilda with a basket of buns and I used a Tilda holding a wine bottle and a picnic basket. We both coloured with Prismacolor pencils. Cardzgal added baubles and a flower and some glitter for Tilda's wings, she also added Flowersoft to the basket so it looks like Tilda is holding a basket of flowers instead of buns; and I added some Quickutz die cuts-wine glass and flowers, some liquid pearls to the centers of the flowers and on the wine glasses some beads to make the glasses look full of wine and then some glossy accents to make them look like glass. Have a look.



So after stamping and making our card, we retired to the sitting room to watch "Grey's and P.P." and of course dessert, cardzgal made a Bailey's cake....easy-peasy; chocolate cake mix, some bailey's(or was it a lot of bailey's) and the microwave....Yummmmmm-ohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
We did our weekly exchange as well. Funny thing, on one of our days out we discussed some of our stamps that we should use or that we had.....and I guess the one stamp line stuck in our minds....cause....thats right.... we used the same stamps again this week.....I don't know, maybe we spend way too much time together....hahahahahaha! We purchased these stamps at a couple of stamp shows last year, Purple Daisy Designs (no web site). Some of the stamps they make fit some of the EK Success Paper Shaper punches - the butterflies we used. I also used a stamp from Starving Artistamps, a mosiac backgroundand a sentiment from Hero Arts. I wonder what I can plant in cardzgal mind to make for next week-insert evil laugh here!
