Popsicle kind of day!

 Where I am from this is called a "Bomb Pop" but I didn't know if everyone would know what that was.  But I thought everyone would know what a popsicle was.  Everyone in my house is a fan of the "bomb pop" but me.  Just not my thing.  All three colors have different flavors.  I like all three of the flavors, just not on one stick.  I just can't explain it.  One of those weird things I guess.  LOL  Thanks so much for stopping by to see what I've been up to today.

I Heart Video Games

 Well, I don't heart video games.  But that is the name of this adorable stamp from 2 Cute Ink.  The stamp is available in Heidi's Etsy store HERE.   I know nothing about video games to be perfectly honest so I had no idea how color up this game center or the game on the TV but I had fun coloring up this stamp.  I thought with this sentiment the card could be used for just about anything boy.  LOL  Thanks for stopping by today to see what I have been up to.

Festive Deer

 Putting this card together didn't go exactly as planned.  Has that ever happened to you?  The plan was to have eyelets hold the ribbon in place.  Well, I was so excited to find my Crop-A-Dile.  I had to dust it off but - no problem.  It took me a little bit of thinking again how to use the thing but I had it all set the eyelets were in place and I squeezed the tool but bam it got stuck!  I had to pull it apart only for the thing to fall apart in my hands - eek!!  So my Crop-A-Dile is now in my trash can.  Thank goodness I had just moved my stapler a couple days ago or believe me I would not have even known were to begin looking for that thing.  So I dug that out and found - to my amazement red staples and used those to fold my ribbon on to my tag.  It wasn't the look I was going for but...well it worked.  The stamp set is an old from from Stampin' Up.  I have no idea how old - not as old as my Crop-A-Dile. LOL  But, it was the first time I think I've used the set.  Thanks so much for reading my story and stopping by to see what I've been up to.  Have a great day!
