Life is Good At the Lake a QKR Stampede Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the QKR-Stampede Blog Hop!

If you just "happened upon my hop", you'll want to go back to the beginning and start over from there. That way, you will be sure to see all of the wonderful projects that our Design Team members have created for you using QKR Stampede digi stamps.

Today's Blog Hop is to introduce all of the new members of the
QKR Stampede Design Team!

If you hopped over from Ruza Rebel blog

you are in the right spot.

My creation for you today is a Project Life page 

using two digital sentiments from

QKR Stampede.

" Life is Good, At the Lake"

My Sunshine digi9302

I dropped the sentiment digi stamp onto a journal card from Jessica Sprague.

Life is Good digi16307

Below I took the digi image changed the color added a bevel and drop shadow.

I also placed my own text At the Lake it is in brush script MT.

Go hopping on your way over to

Sarah Vait  next and see what she has created.

Be sure that you end up at the QKR-Stampede blog and tell us what you thought of the hop!!
Don't forget to check out the QKR-Stampede store to see the amazing variety of digi stamps!

Eureka Stamps/Project Life

Marion Softball 2012 

Product Life Page

Using Eureka Stamps Digi stamps

Jessica's first season of softball has come to an end.

It was a winless season.  However, all of the kids and onlookers had

a wonderful time, you could not stifle the smiles or spirit;)

  When there was a hitting concern you would hear

a cheer bust out of the dugout!

Seriously, you can't beat the sportsmanship of these kiddos!

That is what I tried to portray on this PL page and Eureka Stamps

had just the digital stamps I needed.

I will show you each section close up below and list anything special about each one...

Above is Jessica wearing a HUGE smile the sentiment is in Lobster TTF

The game lasted as long as it took the lineup to bat twice, so this quote is perfect!

"We didn't lose the game; we just ran out of time."  Vince Lombardi

Above photo Jessica is up to bat. 

She had an awesome season with her hits!

Again Lobster TTF

Above I used Eureka Stamps digi

Cheerleader digi7701

Good Job digi25503

So cute, these images really make the page, don't ya think!

Seriously, I dislike my handwriting!  However, I 

know the girls will love it when I am long gone.

Above I used these digi stamps from Eureka Stamps

Cheerleader digi7701

Tis the Season digi17705

Softball girl digi14201

baseball balloon digi25409

Whoa!  Lots of good stuff used on this portion.

My favorite is the

"tis the season" sentiment alteration.

In PSE I used the eraser to remove the balloon portion of the baseball and fill

in the dip were it resided.  Ending up with a baseball image I could resize to the places I wanted

it to go on the page.

In this case it replaces the "o" in season also can be found on the softball girl.

I than used a baseball bat brush and replaced the exclamation point.

I have just turned a Christmas themed sentiment into a double duty threat.  I know!

Above I used the 

softball Girl digi14201

baseball balloon digi 25409

Notice the pink glove and M monogram, so adorable!

And above I used the

baseball balloon digi 25409

I colored the "fence like" card with Copics to match.

I am so very happy with the way this page turned out.

Incase you missed it here is the link to the card I made Jessica for the end of the season.

Madison Avenue

Project Life Page

(I am not doing my Project Life daily as others do, I have two years worth of pics to scrap up and using project life is a quick beautiful way to get the task completed.)

Today's page features

Madison Avenue Paschal (Maddie) 

We Adopted Madison In Jan 2012...

The Watertown area Humane Society GLHS is in desperate need of assistance

contact them at the number below or visit the website.

Madison Deets...

1. She was considered not adoptable.
2. Was a stray found wondering the streets of Watertown SD
3. Adopted from the Watertown Area Humane Society
4. Had Fleas...ugh, that alone made me think twice!!!!
5. Had skin issues...turns out to be allergies, got rid of the fleas and used Vet recommended allergy shampoo and her fur is coming back in.  He issues have mostly resolved in this area.
6. Her back was injured from escaping under a fence...so they thought.
7. She was protective of the people who took care of her at the humane society and they considered her to be a tad aggressive.  
8. Her name arrived from the fact she was found wondering the streets and Mom is a fashionesta.  
9. She loves the girls.
10. She is loving and enjoys cuddling with Mom and sleeping on the bed.
11. Madison enjoys going for car rides.
12. She loves her big brother Bear, it is so fun to watch them play ring around Jessica's playhouse.
13. She cries at the door when Jesse leaves for work
14. As Jesse arrives home her legs turn into springs and she proceeds to jump up and down all over him  until he plays with her.
15. Madison sucks on her blue blanket for comfort, I find this sad yet cute.  She must miss her Mama and this is how she figured out to calm herself she pretty much goes into a trance doing this.
16. Madison is part Terrier and unknown breeds.  Mutty Maddie (just one of her nicknames). Blanket Sucker is another...I know, I know I crack myself up;)
17. She is very loving and was easy to spoil, she fits right in with our family.

Happy Stamp Day.  God Bless.

Project Life 2012

This is one of the big projects on my list for this year

 baring anymore serious life events that pull 

me out of the creative game for months at a time.

All my pieces have finally arrived, that was an adventure in itself.  

Project Life came out being sold as a kit everything came you you in one box, one shipment.  

Now everything is being offered by the piece and some pieces are hard to find.  

Needless to say, I don't like the piece by piece ordering!!!!

Anywho, I purchased the Clementine Edition...

Binder Clementine

Core Kit Clementine

Cardstock Clementine

B pages

C Pages

Now in Feb 2012 they are going to be offering a 60 quantity of assorted pages, this is going to be nice.

As I said this piece by piece is crazy nuts!!!!  

Not to mention most of the styles are out of stock. 

 So there I sat a binder, all the goodies and no flipping pages to put the stuff in!!!!

Grrrrrrrrrrrr...

The new pack of assorted pages being released in Feb 2012...

Happy Stamp Day.  God Bless!
