A Play Date Cafe & Sweet Sunday Tuesday

Hello, hello everyone!  Are you staying warm wherever you are?  It is absolutely FREEZIN' here...and I'm not exaggerating. I woke up this morning and it was -34*C (that's -29*F for all you south of the border) and that was {without} the wind chill!  Needless to say, with cold temperatures come some very interesting challenges - how about frozen water?  Yep, living out in the country has it's perks but frozen water is NOT one of them.  Thankfully, my dear husband was able to defrost it before he went to work - thanks dear!

So, after spending the morning at work I came home and sat down to craft.  I finished one of my DT cards and had a few minutes before supper so I thought I'd try to get a couple more challenges done.  I haven't been able to play with the Play Date Cafe for a couple of weeks and this week they are celebrating Player Appreciation Week and there are PRIZES up for grabs!  Who doesn't love a prize of two?  Here's the lovely combination:

Another challenge I love to play with is Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch and this week's is fabulous - I changed my card into a square... I do love me a square card:

Stamps: Thankful Accents, Birthday Wishes freebie (Verve)  Paper: Whisper White, Real Red, Taken With Teal, Old Olive, Basic Grey DSP  Ink: Taken With Teal, Real Red, Old Olive  Accessories: Nesties (Circles and Scalloped Circles), Real Red polka dot grosgrain ribbon, adhesive pearls, Paisley embossing folder, button, baker's twine, paper piercer, dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you can stay warm wherever you are.  And if you feel like sharing some sunshine, please send it to Central Alberta!  {smile}  See you tomorrow for a brand new Color Dare!
