Be Mine, Valentine - TGF

Hey everybody! How was everybodys weekend, I hope you got to have a nice long weekend , like I did!! I had no "real" plans and lots of play time!! I kinda just hibernated in my craft room for about 2 days....I told the family to throw me some food here and there and life would be good!  I'm kidding! But I did get quite a bit done and we had some good family time too. 

Ever heard of a game called Quelf? I got it in a gift exchange and I have to tell you, it was pretty darn fun. It has you do random acts of goofiness and I can't begin to tell you how much we laughed. At one point I swear I was going to pee my pants. The types of things it has you do varies. Sometimes you will have to go around the table and list items in a specific category. Like breakfast foods or Star Wars Characters. The next thing you know you get a card (which I got this one) that says it's "Classified" meaning you can't tell them the details..then you say "I'm sorry, I need to go to the restroom, please excuse me" and then you are suppose to go to the bathroom and NOT COME BACK until somebody comes and gets you. The person that finally comes gets 2 bonus points. Then there are all these "Rules" throughout the game. Like you have to talk like a pirate or say a phrase after every sentence you say. We had a blast playing it and can't wait to get the adults together to play an adult version. I think it could be easily adaptable to include a few drinks! ;-))

We often get together and play a drinking game called "Ring of Fire" . We love it and it's VERY similiar to the game I just described. I like it because it isn't one of those get drunk off your butt college games, but more of a get tipsy, laugh and have fun adult game! lol

So there was my weekend fun now I am back to work tomorrow! It's a short week, thank goodness! My last bit of news and then I will share my card....I would have been boarding a plan on the 25th heading to CHA but waaaahhh, my plans got all boogered up so I had to cancel. :-(( I am sooooo going to miss going and really am bummed about it.  I had so many plans to meet some bloggie friends and even had an extra day to bum around LA.  Now I will probably end up flying up to Ohio to see my childhood friend and some family one long weekend to use up my ticket!!

Today I would like to share with you another card using a stamp from the Ms. Anya Garland set from The Greeting Farm. I just think she is so adorable.

I paired her up with these fabby papers from MME. I don't know about you but as soon as I catch wind of a MME 6x6 release, I am ALL ON IT!  I just LOVE their papers and they coordinate so well together. That lucious big sentiment is from a dollar bin at Michaels!  I scrunched up some ribbon and added a little rosette from K&Company.

Thats all for today, head on over to the SHOP and pick up your Anya!

It was a complete mistake to drink coffee and read your post at the same time. My choices were to either choke or spray it everywhere. There's not THAT many words with "T" in them, so I could really care less if it's sticking. :) That game sounds like a total hoot. I absolutely lost it at "NOT COME BACK" Hahahaha...

Your card is gorgeous and those papers ARE drool worthy. Love the journey it takes your eyes on and then settles back on that wonderful image.

Thanks SO much for the laugh and for playing along with us at Make It Monday!
