I know that some of you have told me that the paypal button does not work, and some of you have had no trouble, i'm not sure why it's inconsistent, i've redone the code a few times... If all else fails you can donate to my paypal address which is madam_diva ( a t ) yahoo ( d o t ) com - also to those people who donated this week... THANK YOU SO MUCH.
It was so nice bask in the sun this weekend and the warmth of my family Sunday night.
Saturday night B-rad and i went out for dinner and a movie. My parents gave us a "Night Out" for Christmas, and we've just now used it up. We had dinner at this AMAZING Thai restaurant - i had coconut curry chicken. mmm. Then B-rad and i had a beer on a pub patio and then we went to see "The Great Gatsby"...which i loved. I really dig Leonardo DiCaprio and Baz Luhrmann.
Sunday morning B-rad made breakfast while i slept in, and the boys made me mother's Day cards, and birthday cards with drawings included. It was really sweet. We spent most of the day outside, and then Chewie and i went to get hanging baskets for the Grandmas and i picked up some "Mother's Day To Me" annuals and I even managed to get my flower bed done this weekend!! Huzzah!
I bet you're wondering where all the pictures are... they're on my phone, and B-rad is using it to chat with an old family friend. ;)
sorry. =)
Weekly Challenge #118: "UMT v. XVI - Kuke"
As many of you know, the first Monday of every month is a UMT challenge (or Use My Tangle), as last week was an official Zentangle tangle, we moved it to this week this go-round.
The challenge is to learn and use one of the tangles created by YOU. (if you have a tangle you'd like to submit, please read the guidelines here)
This week's tangle come to us from Katy Abbot, CZT - it's a really cute little tangle, and funny to me because i was JUST looking at a cucumber the other day thinking - hey, that's a tangle! lol. Katy beat me to it.
You can see the step outs to this tangle here
This tile is so unlike my "style", but the more i look at it, the more i kind of like it. i used Kuke in the bottom and on the top right.
Have fun!
If you have a blog, add the site-specific URL where your tile is posted to the linkey machine below! Don't forget to link back here so that others can join in the fun! (if you don't know how to find this, you can see my half assed tutorial here)
Also, please feel free to come back often and visit the links of those people on the linkey machine - don't forget to leave a comment or feedback, everyone loves feedback. ;)
If you don't have a blog but still want to participate, you can email your tile to me and i will post it here. (please email to weeklychallenge(at)mail(dot)com). I just ask that you put in the subject line: Challenge # ________
The deadline for each weekly challenge is Saturday night so that i can round everyone up by Sunday. What this means is that i will stop adding tiles to the slideshow on Sunday. You're still more than welcome to do the challenges and add your name to the linkey machine.
I will be more diligent with the linkey machine - by editing out the ones that don't work, the doubles, the links that lead to nowhere, the links that go just to blog home pages (this is why we need those site specific urls), and the spam. And there is some spam. PLEASE do not put your *home* page in the linkey machine... please? for me??
