CPS 5th Anniversary Day 10 with Lee Murphy and The Stamps of Life



Welcome to Day 10 of the CPS 5th Anniversary Celebration.  


      Howdy!  My name is Lee Murphy and I'm happy you've joined us for our fabulous Anniversary Celebration!!  I'm the new kid on the block here at CPS....I've only been here for a few months, but it's a FABULOUS place to be with the most amazing stampers on this DT!!!  I'm currently the DT Coordinator for Gina K. Designs and a Moderator on Stamp TV and Splitcoast Stampers. You can check out more of what I do on my blog: My Reality...It's All Good!  Stamping truly is my sanity and my stampin' friends are my lifeline....after all, I do live on a mountain!  LOL  I've got 2 grown kids (yes, I had them when I was 5!!  ;) ) and I'm married to the most amazing Prince Charming there ever was!!!  If you know me at all you know I love PINK and SNOW and SMILIES!!!



For today’s sketch I chose CPS # 26.  Since I'm so new here there are so very many sketches that I can't wait to eventually try!!  I love sketch challenges!! 



I really love penguins and Stephanie at the Stamps Of Life sure has some cute ones!!!  Now how could I resist pink and red penguins so close to Valentine's Day?!!!  And I thought a little treat bag with a penguin topper would be a fun little addition.

Darn it - I linked the wrong card. Clearly, I'm having issues! Please disregard #20 - not sure how to delete that entry. I'm really enjoying playing along (once I get the right link up there - sorry!)!

Day 10 in the books and I finally got a chance to try out my Copic Markers!

Jennifer Roach said...

So I have to admit, that sketch took every ounce of my mojo and I had to look through a bunch of other cards until it clicked.

But thanks for the challenge as I'm happy with how my creation turned out :)

Natalie said...

So glad I double checked on the challenges because I thought I had linked up on this one and I hadn't! Yikes! This was a fun one, at first I was really intimidated but it came together well! Thanks for the inspiration.

Lovely penguins!
This was a difficult one, but I managed it in the end. Now off to finish 5 more cards in 4 days time!

Stephanie said...

Loved the sketch you chose, Lee! It's perfect for those of us who love mixing and matching patterned paper! Thanks for the inspiration!

CraftyViolet said...

I put all my cards on seperate posts but they are not letting me choose which one it matches. Oh Oh!
This is not good.

Kathy D. said...
