Aquarius The Water Bearer @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's Brenda's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Aquarius The Water Bearer" which means she referencing the current zodiac sign AND she wants to see projects that have to do with water. Glug, glug!

I've got two Aquariuses living in my house...both my boys. I'm not one to put much stock in the zodiac....not that I'm dismissive of it either, it's just not something I've ever really investigated. But I do think this challenge is cool though! (:

Let me tell you, my friends, earlier this evening I was in a bit of a panic as I was trying to figure out when I might be able to get my card made for the challenge as I had to do this, that and the other thing (all not at home) before I could even think of getting crafty. And, I don't craft well under pressure...it's usually akin in a big pile of llama spit whenever I've tried. I popped onto my challenge list to see what the challenge actually was.....and that's when I realized....I had already made a card! Woooo hoooo!

And this is that card....


Really, I can't believe I forgot about this.  I mean, it has a pun on it and everything.  Shame on me!  Not much needs to be said about the making really, Taylored Expressions (I believe) sailboat die, some waves from Neat & Tangled (I think) and a computer generated sentiment (that one I know for sure, definitely a computer generated sentiment).

Why don't you give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up.  And, while you're there, be sure to check out the fabulous projects the other Girlfriends have created.

Also for:

Ike's World:  N is for naughty or nice
Tuesday Throwdown:  create your own background
A Place To Start:  masculine
Double D:  again and again - the wave stamp is just one line so it was stamped multiple times
AAA Cards:  up to one third
Crafty Calendar:  use die cuts
QKR Stampede:  anything goes
As You Like It:  warm or cool colours - I prefer cool colours, especially since my favourite colour is blue.  Actually, I really like to use cool colours and then add a touch of warm colour for some pop!  (:
Crafty Catz:  anything goes & fave colour - My favourite colour is blue.
Pearly Sparkles:  include some red
Crafty Sentiments:  anything goes

  14. This card is fantastic, Jan. I love the bright colors you used, and the sentiment is so punny! It's perfect for our challenge at Less Is More, however we have a max of 5 challenges including ours, so it would not qualify for a win. Thanks for playing.

  28. Do you understand there's a 12 word phrase you can say to your partner... that will trigger deep feelings of love and impulsive attractiveness for you buried inside his heart?

    Because deep inside these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's instinct to love, cherish and protect you with all his heart...

    12 Words That Fuel A Man's Love Instinct

    This instinct is so built-in to a man's genetics that it will make him work better than before to make your relationship as strong as it can be.

    Matter of fact, fueling this mighty instinct is absolutely mandatory to achieving the best possible relationship with your man that the second you send your man a "Secret Signal"...

    ...You'll instantly notice him open his soul and heart to you in a way he never experienced before and he'll perceive you as the one and only woman in the world who has ever truly fascinated him.

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
