Check This Out - A New Challenge

I love participating in challenges - even if it's harder during the school year to keep up with them. I wanted to share a new challenge with all of you that comes from a few FABULOUS blogs that I follow.

Courtney (One Day at a Time) came up with this clever idea for a monthly challenge - if you've never been to Courtney's blog, you've gotta check it out.....I just love her videos sharing all of her crafty finds. My blog pal, Kelley (My Front Porch), is one of the challenge hostesses along with some other uber-creative gals - wait to you see Kelley's take on the challenge. This month's challenge is to create a card or scrapbook page using something gathered from your mail - see I told you it was clever!! You have until October 9th to complete your card and link it up on Courtney's blog for the chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Papertrey Ink - this seals the deal for your participation, right?!


Thought I'd share this with you - not much card making going on tonight :( The good news is that there was a simple fix to the furnace issue - the valve release gas to the pilot light was shut off by one of the guys who came to give me an estimate (who knows!!). The company that's installing the new furnace stopped (at no charge, wahooo!!) and got it nice & toasty!! good thing - it's supposed to drop in the low 40s tonight!
