ScrapHole - What's In A Name?

How did the name Scraphole come to be? I was trying to come up with a name for my creative space and I was using my hubby as a sounding board. For days I would throw idea's out there but none seemed to stick. Finally my hubby came up with The Scraphole. His reasoning? Every time I go near my scraproom it sucks me in and I'm never heard from again. So, hence The Scraphole. Please grab yourself a handful of chocolate and your favorite beverage and join me for a spat.

Happy Birthday Honey!!!

Today is my hubby's 55th birthday. I whipped up two cards for him, one from me and one from "my" dog. I have a miniture pincher that is often referred to as "the red dog". Hubby isn't particularly fond of my dog so I thought something unconventional would work.

I colored the dogs card with Prisma pencils and used some orderless mineral spirits for blending. For my card I used markers and a bit of a sparkly glitter pen. I worked together the image from 3 different stamp sets. The hat is a Studio G stamp, the heart balloon is from an Angel Company set called Artsy Owls and the guy is also from TAC and the set is called Little Friends.

Happy birthday honey, hope you have a wonderful day!
