Color Inspiration #9 Round-up

Wow! What a turn out for this week's challenge! I loved all your entries and it was particularly hard to narrow it down to just ten favorites! :)

As for my card, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until Monday to see it. ;) I'm multitasking and using my CI Challenge card as my MACM for next week. I'll be in New York for the National Stationary Show so I needed to film it before I go.

Anyhow, here's the Round-up for Challenge #9:

TOP TEN

TEN RANDOMLY SELECTED

What greeted me when I walked into the office this morning...

Yes, those masks feature my face with different hair! And each one has a little talk bubble that says, "It's my birthday." LOL!

The girls at work used the hair makeover thingy over at InStyle.com to make all the different heads. And, yes, the other faces on my cubicle are their faces!

They also decorated my cubicle with hair ties and bobby pins... and shampoo and conditioner... and curling irons and straightening irons! I've always thought it'd be awesome to be a hairstylist and I told them that a while back. :) Hilarious!! I love these people. Seriously, I work with the best people EVER! :)

Hi all! Before I forget, remember to check out the final part of my Questions & Answers video... I posted it right before I posted this entry. :)

This week's CI Challenge comes to us from marthastewart.com. I was looking through the home decorating section and came upon this photo. :)

As usual, I'll share my card with you all when I post the Round-Up on Friday night.

MACM - Happy

051208-macm1.jpg

051208-macm2.jpg Hi everyone! I hope your weekends were lovely and all you Mother's out there were loved with lots of chocolate and yummy goodies for Mother's Day. :)

This week's Make a Card Monday was prompted by the fact that there are a couple birthday's this week at my office. First, there's Andrea whose birthday is today (Holla!), and then on Thursday... well, just watch the video to find out. ;)

(Note: For all you gift-givers out there (you know who you are--hey, Mom!) I'd like to point you in the direction of my Amazon.com wish list ;) ... Click here)

Anyway, this Happy card can be used for many different occasions and I think that's why I like it. :)

Enjoy! And everyone have a wonderful Monday!
