Weekly Musical Challenge - 17 - Good Friend and A Glass of Wine (LeAnn Rimes)
Thank you so much FMcrafter for playing last week. You were the only one that posted a card so I will be sending my card to you. I am going to try spending a bit more time out here to see if that helps bring in players. Thank you again for playing. And thank you to those of you that were hoping to get your cards done. At least you were thinking about us right? And to me that counts for something so thank you.
Woo Hoo It's time to announce this week's song. This one is going to be easy for everyone, I think. Is everybody ready?? Here we go. This week's song is:
A good friend and a glass of wine
Someone to say it's gonna be alright
A good friend and a glass of wine
A little pick me up to get me through the night
We talk trash n' we laugh and cry
That kind of therapy money can't buy
Every now and then, every now and then
Every girl needs a good friend and a glass of wine
If you are new to the challenge this is how it works. Each week I choose a song. I then ask you to make a card that is inspired by the chosen song. Then post your card here in the forum and we can leave our comments and chat about it. Then next Saturday I will put everyone's name that made a card for this challenge into a drawing. The winner will be the recipient of the cards made for this challenge. Therefore I will ask you to consider sending your card to whomever is the lucky recipient. However, it is not mandatory that you send your card.
Also, please remember in order to have your name put in the drawing you MUST post your card here in the forum before next Saturday.
Please use the keyword: DDMCC17. HAPPY CREATING!!!!
Well hello to KelliJo and welcome. I hope you have as much fun with this as we do. Please send our best to Bonnie. I sure hope she gets some relief soon. By the way I love your name. Oh and we do like to chat it up at times so feel free to jump in anytime. Kellijo meet FMcrafter, she is not only a regular here but also a dear friend and co-host. Oh and a lot of fun.
FM, I too left the wine out of my card. I am not a drinker either. Never was and hope to never be. I love the image on your card. They look like they have been best buds for a very long time. Nice job.
I did get my card done for last week but again got behind and didn't get it uploaded by Saturday, sorry! FMcrafter, I will PM ya for your address as I'll send mine to you. I will upload to share as well.
I'm going to try to get my card for this week's challenge done today so I can get it uploaded timely.
I was stamping cards yesterday playing VSN but last night I got food poisoning and am just starting to feel better today. I need to give the dog a bath, get dinner for DH and then I hope to be back to get my card done. I need time to think about what I'm going to do for this one...hmmm? ;) Good challenge Dani!

Lmn- food poisoning, OMG. That's not good. I hope it was a mild case.
Hey can you throw my dog in with your's, she needs a good bath with the snow melting and freezing here. She is just so low to the ground and her underside is all white that it is almost impossible to keep her clean. Ok, yes she hates to get a bath as well.

Get better soon.
I'm not sure it was mild as I was sure I needed a hospital but was too, too sick to have my DH take me. What I am glad about is that my family didn't eat the same stuff for dinner I did so they did not get sick. I am feeling better, thanks!
I have a little 6 lb poodle so giving her a bath isn't so bad. She doesn't mind it if you keep the water warm. It was just brushing her that was difficult. She's sleeping next to me now so it must not have been too traumatic. She's little so she gets muddy easily.

Finally a week I got my card uploaded timely! I don't drink wine nor did I have wine stamps but I did find a cute stamped image of 2 friends someone sent me that was perfect for the challenge.
G'morning ladies. Well I didn't make it out here yesterday during the race. In fact, I even had to miss the race. My daughter was feeling down and needed mom and daughter time. Ladies, you have made awesome cards for this song. Thank you.
LMN, I am sorry that you got food poisoning. I had that one year after eating left over cranberries. That's a bad illness. BAD!!! I sure hope you are feeling better. BTW..did you know you are not suppose to serve cranberries a second time?? I did not know this. I have always kept the leftovers. Not any more tho...learned my lesson. Your card is absolutely perfect for this song. Thank you so much for posting it.
KelliJo you are so welcome. I can't wait to see your card. I hope you did enjoy your day off. It is so kind of you to help Bonnie out. Altho I do see Bonnie posted. YAY!!!!! However KelliJo, we would still love for you to play.
Bonnie, welcome back!!!!! I sure hope you are getting a little relief. Thank you for sending KelliJo our way. She sure does seem like a great person. And what a friend aye?? I love your card. The wine glass charm was an awesome addition. Why didn't I think of that? Probably because I don't drink wine. lol...Thank you so much for playing this week. I hope your health allows you to continue playing.
FMcrafter, I also love your card. The image is perfect!!! I hope your feeling better as well. Thank you for playing every week. You ROCK!!!
Ladies, I need to know what you think. I have a dear friend, a fellow SCSr who has had some real bad luck with her health lately. She had back surgery some time ago only to find out that she has to have another. She had a fushion that didn't take. She has a bunch of other things wrong as well. She broke her shoulder recently and hasn't been able to do any stamping. She is getting depressed thru it all. So, what do you think of sending her the cards for this week? I think the song is a perfect fit. She is such a beautiful person, I hate to see her down. Of course, if more people play this week I will ask them what they think of this as well. Please let me know what you think. If even one person does not agree to this then I will not do it. Because, after all, I am the one who keeps telling people they could be the recipient of the cards made. If you feel better pming me your answer that would be fine too. Well ladies you have a great morning. I have to go get ready to take Lucky to the vet for his rabies shot then to the post office to mail out some swap cards. Then back home to card making. I will come back out later today. ((((((Huggs))))))
Morning Dani. Thanks for the sweet comment on my card. I love that wine glass charm even though I don't drink either. Found the charms at Michael's in their $1 spot one year and just bought them on impulse. I just knew one day I would have a reason to use at least one of them.
Hello ladies, Long time not "see" (tee-hee). I don't drink, but I find a nice, hot bath and a facial at the end of a long day helps me de-stress. So this is my take on this week's challenge:

See I wish I could be like you and see something and buy it and then USE it. lol I see I buy...then I have no idea what to do with it. lol..Great job!!! I hope you are feeling a little better. I say a little cuz I know it takes baby steps sometimes. (((Huggs)))

((((((Heather)))))) WELCOME BACK Girlfriend!!!!! I hope you are doing well. I love your card. Absolutely love it. I sooo would love to find a friend to go to the spa with. My best friend and I talk about it however, she has a new boyfriend so...now I have to play second fiddle for awhile. I know it won't be long. She does this a lot so maybe I will get my spa day soon. Anyways...I am soooo glad to see you and Bonnie back. Wow, it seems like it's been forever. Please do not disappear on us again. You make me worry then. Besides we need you here.shhh I'm whispering this to you. Someone needs to be here to keep FMcrafter on a short leash. You know she can get pretty wild. heheWelcome back girl!!
Ladies, a few things. Please read my post below that talks about sending these cards somewhere. Next, let's all try to make sure we leave comments on each other's cards. Everyone loves to see love about their cards. Next, Please welcome KelliJo with open arms. She is a friend of Bonnies (raduse). Hopefully she will stick around and become a friend of ours too. Then lets welcome back Bonnie (raduse) and Heather (hsclay). You were missed very much girls. I hope you both are doing well.
I totally agree FM. However, nobody has said how they feel about sending the cards out to a fellow scsr that is going in for back surgery.
So what is everyone up to today? I have to take Lucky and Lucy to the groomers this morning and then when I pick them up I am taking Dusty (Bird) in so he can get his nails trimmed. My daughter is coming over to clean my carpets and I am spending the day making cards. Yay!!! Therefore I should go get in the shower and get ta gettin. Y'all have a great day!!
Ok ladies, I have a funny story. I took Lucy and Lucky to the groomer this morning. I was at the front desk checking them in and my dd was standing next to me holding their leashes. The lady comes out to get them and says to Lucy "You're my kind of dog. You know what you want and you get it." I look down and here is Lucy chewing on a teething bone. lol..little booger. Now not only do I have to pay for that one when I pick them up I also have to buy one for Lucky because it wouldn't be fair for her to have one and not him. lol Too funny.

I cant help myself I love to leave my comments I jsut thought that is respectful since everyone took so much time to make them and post them. Besides for me it helps if someone notices that I might of made it wrong or could do a better job with a better technique.
Raduse welcome im also new and totally new to the site as well and loving it here thanks DellsDani for steering me over here to this thread. Im home today most of the day and well try to get what I can done.
Now for sending to the sick friend im in on that one too. Everybody needs to know they are missed or to let em know they are special
Hugz everyone Toni
If everyone agrees to send them to your friend what about making some with her in mind like a get well or an encouragment so they well be more personalized that way to her as well as make for the challenge.?
I thought I had replied this morning at 4am, such a twit. I'm in for sending them to the lady having surgery or for making some special ones just for her.
Toni, you made it to this one too. YAY!!! WELCOME!!!! I love your idea of making the cards get well cards. This is awesome that you are just jumping right in. That is so cool. And just so you get to know everyone raduse is a regular, she hasn't been able to make cards for health reasons. Well I am so glad you made it girl.

Thanks so much Dani and ya I got some ideas running thru my head and im game making one now for raduse ...
No worries, they probably moved it to a stampin up galler based upon your stamp. They do it all the time.
Beautiful card. I think I'll go find some space and make one too.
Thank you I was thinking it was moved cuz it was a butterfly. I was gonna do this technique that I read using condenced milk to emboss with it well come out about the same as using the white ink only way better. I havent tried it yet but have seen it done and so far hers turned out great.

FM and Ladyblue, I left love on your cards. You too crack me up. Yes you can come and get groomed too. lol There's always room for y'all. hehe. I will pm y'all Dawnie's address once I get to the hotel and get situated. I just don't have time this morning. Sorry. It should be early afternoon I hope.
