Let it Rain...Baby!

Hello crafty girls!! Hope your Saturday is goin' great:)! It is actually a really nice day here...But I am posting Jane's card...Perfect image for a rainy day:). Fridays are going to be our 'fun' post day...showing you our favorite things of the week. Little tidbits that have caught our eyes:). However, yesterday didn't go quite as planned. My stamps gave me a little trouble loading into my shop (actually, it was this mean, old, grumpy computer...we don't get along so well;). So, that post never went live as I still had some editing to do. Instead, I'll share a couple of the fun things the Dt girls chose over the next day or so:). Yeah, yesterday it just rained on my parade...gonna make the best of it...and just...

I don't like when things don't go quite as I plan...but sometimes it is a nice lesson in relaxing and taking a chill pill:). Speaking of rain, take a look at Jane's lovely card. Isn't this a great color combo?? I think I want to do a room in these colors! I love 'em!!

And Jane's pick of the week...well, I've never heard of such a thing:). But isn't he the cutest!?! It's an Eco-Friendly Hot Water Bottle Cover

So, Jane emailed me this link, and it made me laugh at first...I never thought about sleeping with a hot water bottle:P). But, when you think about it, it makes perfect sense...especially if you are always cold (me!). Hubby likes to keep the house COLD at night. I like to crank up the heat:). With this little animal to snuggle, I can keep warm and keep our energy bill down! Oh...and keep Mr. Hottie (I mean that in every sense of the word;) nice and chill:). It still makes me giggle..but I gotta get me one! I might even want two...put one over my toes:P.

Oh...and if you haven't met "Baby Jake" yet...Here's the little guy. He looks exactly like my little nephew. Jake. I just want to kiss him all the time. Big eyes and a hint of a smile:). Even with that binky in his mouth:). Jane did a fab job leaving the coloring so simple and giving the card a fresh, sweet baby vibe...like baby powder:). My kids still love that stuff. It's fun to just squeeze the bottle and make poofy clouds fly up in the air:)!! Anyways...say 'hi' to Jake:)...

Have a lovely weekend girls! Remember to scroll down to the Challenge post and enter your card for a chance to win a couple free digi's!! Have a splended day!

And Sweet Jane...

Meet Jane (in her cupboard under the stairs:)...

Now I much prefer to sit down and colour something in than have to talk about myself but here goes…..... My name is Jane, currently enjoying the last year of my thirties....eek! I live in Fort William in the Scottish Highlands with my lovely hubby Phil and two girls Lucy (11) and Jude (7). I have been making cards for a while, but got into it big time when I discovered the blogging world around 3 years ago!...(I work at the local High School as a dinner lady, so get loads of holidays to play in my cupboard!) As soon as I saw the Simply Sassy stamps I was hooked on Krista’s work and was really excited to see that she was opening a Digi Store and was even more excited when she asked me to be on her Design Team! I am still grinning from ear to ear! I am really looking forward to the challenges and seeing all the fab creations!

After I had a couple girls on the Dt team, I thought, 'Oh my goodness, I have to ask Jane!!' I think she is one of the first ladies I remember meeting through Sugar Nellie. Always leaving nice comments on my blog. Always there for the SN blog hops for the Sassy range. Plus, she stuck in my mind because of that lovely red hair! I have quite a bit of Scottish heritage on my mom's side of the family, so I always liked this Jane from Scotland:). Besides all that-- have you seen her lovely cards!?! I think they are perfect in every way. (I even have one in my possession...even more beautiful in person!) I was so thrilled when Jane wrote me back and said she would be part of my team! I think she is a wonderful, sweet lady who is a pleasure to work with! Thank you Jane. I'm so happy to have met ya this past year!:)

Please hop over to Jane's blog, The Cupboard Under the Stairs,  where you can see more of her gorgeous creations...and might even find a peek of her adorable family!:).  She's such a sweetheart!
