Inkspirations Inspiration Challenge # 15…..

Hey everyone,

Sorry this is late everyone……once again the telephone gremlins arrived and i have been without Internet…… I promise you I do pay my bills! It just seems to be some fault in the line which is making it cut in and out. It certainly has been testing my patience, that is for sure!

Time to pick a challenge winner for the week. I don’t know if you have all had a crazy busy week this week, or I have totally scared you off with the Inspiration image!!!! LOL! I can’t recall another time when we only had 11 players, but that was this week. Don’t get me wrong, i am definitely not complaining, as I often has the best intentions to play along with challenges,….but tell me was it the inspiration image to start with? :)

Well those that did play along did do an amazing job as always!!!! I have picked as the winner this fun creation by Pam Sims. I really love all these stars Pam has placed all over the background……definitely sparkly!

hen this weeks Inspiration honourable mention is this fun creation by Helen. I love the background paper and the sparkly window she has created for the greeting! Just beautiful.

Here are all the other entries in the Slide show…….ENJOY!

I will be back with the new challenge for you in just a Mo!

Take care!

Love Keesh

Twilight Tuesday New Moon Blog Hop…..

Published by Makeesha under Cards

Hey Peeps,

Well I am very very excited to finally be here for the Twilight Tueday New Moon Blog Hop! I have to confess to just abour ripping my hair out last night/ today because once again our phone line went down, and I haven’t been able to access my internet!!! After trying for hours with all sorts of cords, plugging, and unplugging, I had to give up at midnight. I got up at 5:30am to keep on working with it, but alas no luck! So I have had to wait until it is a reasonable hour to visit the neighbours and use their internet connection. SO I sincerely apologize that this post is a wee bit late!!!

Okay so are you asking what the title means? Well I am very excited to tell you that I have been asked to be a Guest Designer for the Twilight Tuesday Challenge Blog, New Moon Blog Hop……in celebration of New Moon’s release just the other day!

Okay so here is my New Moon Challenge card for you! I was wanting to do a broken heart, but I tell ya each effort I tried, just didn’t come up all that great. So in the end I just went with a full heart, and a I love you greeting……..that way, you can use it for either Edward, or Jacob, depending on which is your true love! LOL!

ooohhh I forgot to mention….

Published by Makeesha under Chitchat with Keesh

 

 Hey there,

I just realized that in my last post I forgot to tell you about the New Moon movie I saw at midnight last night!!!!
OH my, it is so hard to put into words, but all to try it was nothing short of AMAZING! I actually liked it more than Twilight, and it has you sitting on the edge of your seats the whole time. I have always been Team Edward, but seeing Jacob ditch that long hair, and get the buff body, and his persona, I can now see how people totally go for team Jacob!

If you can you definitely want to go and watch it asap….YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!!!! :)

I can’t wait to go again!

Ciao,

Love Keesh

A very happy mail box…..

Published by Makeesha under Cards

 

Hey Peeps,

Well yesterday I was sharing how I have been feeling very loved by some dear friends, well I wanted to share with you the beautiful, and encouraging cards I got in the mail recently……..oh yes I have be SPOILT!!!!

Here is some creative delights……

First  off I got this beauty from the ever talented Sarah Klass. Many of you know Sarah, and visit her beautiful blog. I was really chuffed to get this card, because I would so totally ditto the sentiment to Sarah herself!

Not only is the front beautiful, the words inside were even more gorgeous too :)

Then a few days later I got not one but two cards in the post on the same day…..! Talk about exciting! This stunning creation is from my dearest friend Louise. Many of you know about Lou, and what a wonderful friend she is to me……and in my fave colour combo too….thanks so much Lou!

And then………I got this stunner from my dear friend and partner in crime Charmaine!!! I would never think to put these two stamp sets together, but oh my, they look amazing together!!! I just love everything about this gorgeous card!

And then just last week, i received this FABULOUS creation from Ngaire! Nyster as we call her, is not only my dear friend, but also my Upline as well (not to mention Demonstrator of the year x2!!!) Clever cookie she is, that Ngaire! I love this long vase with the felt flowers…..and again that beautiful greeting too :) Thanks Nyster!

SO one thing I have been inspired to do, after receiving these fabulous creations in the post is to make more effort sending card! I have this HUGE basket full of them, and well I really should be putting them to good use, and sending mail box love….

Thanks again girls for your beautiful creations and words of LOVE! They really all do mean so much to me!

Have a great night everyone! 

Love Keesh

True Friend…….

Published by Makeesha under Cards

Hey Peeps,

I hope you are having a great week so far! I am so very excited today, because in a few hours I will be heading off with friends to see the Twilight movie, followed by the brand new sequel movie NEW MOON! Oh it is going to be a great night……and better still I am going along with great friends too!

Often when you are down and out, it is the friends that you have around you that really keep you going. Last week I really experienced that with some amazing text and email messages from dear friends that were letting me know that they are thinking of me. It really made my day/week, and certainly made me feel loved too….

I hope that you all have special friends in your life. I recently made a card for a dear friend of mine, and also shared it at my Stamp club last week:

I don’t use this mix of In colour, colours too much, and was wanting to do something different for a change. I have used the stamp set Simple Friendship which is a Stampin’Up set from the US, that a dear friend sent to me.

Remember to cherish the friends that you have, as a good friendship is a rare gift :)

Have a great night……I know I will! ( New Moon goss tomorrow, I promise!!!)

Love Keesh
