{TCPTues213} & {ISSC19}


Happy Monday, everyone!! How was your weekend? Mine was crazy-busy!! On Friday, Josh and I took off for Lethbridge so I could run with my sister and brother's girlfriend in the Ladiesfest 8K run.  This was the very first run I did last year and finished it in 1:03:39 so my goal this year was to finish in under an hour.  Did I do it?  You bet your bananas, I did!!!  I was thrilled to finish in 58:51 - almost 5 minutes faster than last year's result!   We ran on Saturday morning and by late afternoon, Josh and I were on the road home.  Sunday was another busy day with a community fundraising event at the arena.  The dad of one of the trainers at the gym was recently diagnosed with cancer so a ball hockey tournament and head-shaving event was organized to raise money to support him during this difficult time.  The arena was full and around 35 people shaved/cut their hair.  The support in our little community truly inspired me - I had a permagrin on all day. 

You can imagine how VERY thankful I was to have today off and figured what better way to spend it than in my craft room creating for no real reason. :)  So after baking some cookies, I sat down to blog-surf and find some challenges.  I have been VERY slack with my TCP Tuesday challenges lately ~ I don't think I played along even once last month.  :(  Imagine my excitement when I found this week's was a COLOR CHALLENGE!!

Fun, summery colors screaming out for a fun sketch and that's what I found over at iSpy Sketches...love those color blocks at the bottom!



I got to use another one of my new TCP sets, "Aye, Aye Captain!"  That bunny is my favorite.  I can't get enough of the bunny.  The waves were made using Wave border die and the clouds use the Cloud Border die, both from TCP!  Thanks for stopping by today - I know I've been awfully quiet over the last couple of months so if you've stuck with me, thank you!!!  I can't promise more frequency but I hope you will continue to stop by...

Have a great week, everyone - see you on Thursday with a new 4 Crafty Chicks' challenge!
