Challenge Day Four

What a beautiful day today!  I had happy kiddos and really that's what its all about :) Today's challenge is to be inspired by the color green.  I had this color sitting in a box, waiting its turn and today is it's day.  I was so excited to use Sinful Colors San Francisco for today's challenge.  It is so gorgeous of course these pics don't do it justice.  It has a tad more blue than you can see, but it is just as shimmery and delicious as it appears!



This color inspired me to make a garden today.  One of my stamping plates has a rose on it- and you can't see very well cuz it's not that great of a stampin color, but there's a dusty rose shimmer polish down at the first layer.  That is Sinful Colors Dancing Nails.  Then I stamped Maybelline Color Show Bold Gold and finally from the same brand, Amethyst Ablaze.  Once again I will say it- the Maybelline metallic collection is fantabulous for stamping! So there ya have it, a little garden in your hand :)


Mr. Bear took some fun pics of little sis today.  He loves to try out mommy's gadgets (wince) but I love watching his confidence grow in his capabilities.






Here's a copy-cat mobile of something I found pinned forever ago and I can't find the link, but these cute felt animals looked so fun so I made up some patterns and set to work.  What a great project this was.  I hadn't done much with felt before but it was love.  I only wish I had even more color choices at my local Joann's.  So here is what missy gets to look at when she lays in bed :)  Night ya'll.  Time to knock out another chapter or two on the road to graduation!

Over and Out

  2. Your mobile is awesome! It turned out great.
    Your green nails are fun for fall...did you do that yourself??? I cannot paint my own nails...I've never been able to master nail polish with my left hand - it turns out looking like I let my two year old paint my nails.
    I'm here from the Welcome Wednesday hop.
    Stop by for a visit!

    1. Hey Rhiannon, thanks for stopping by. I did paint my own nails and I used to think the same thing about using my left hand, but after a little practice you improve- believe me- and if you get a little clean up brush and some acetone, you can get away with anything :)Letting our two-year-olds paint our nails is fun too though ;)
