Freebie and a Chuckle

Good Morning...here is today's funny:
A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone crowded about a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside down pot and a duck tap dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing, they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot.
Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger, "Your duck is a ripoff! I put him on the pot before a whole audience, and he didn't dance a single step!"
"So?" asked the ducks former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?"
So here is the last of the QP's from Karen's Design Quest..this is from week 4. You can find the kit here. Template used # 157 by Tami. You can find Tami's blog here.

Thanks 4 lQQking!!

Freebie and a Chuckle

First up here is one of my favorite bartender jokes:
A blind guy on a bar stool shouts to the bartender, "Wanna hear a blonde joke?"
In a hushed voice, the guy next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, you should know something." Our bartender IS blonde, the bouncer is blonde. I'm a 6' tall, 200 lb black belt. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2", weighs 225, and he's a rugby player. The fella to your right is 6'5" pushing 300 and he's a wrestler. Each one of US is blonde. Think about it,
Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke?" The blind guy says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."

Karen from scrapN2Nspire has a new kit in her store. It is called "Affair of the Heart". This kit is great for scrapping those old photos you have sitting around collecting dust.You can find the kit here.

And just for being so nice for stopping by here is a qp for you.

Freebie and a Chuckle

Hello Everyone
A man who had been caught embezzling millions from his employer went to a lawyer seeking defense. He didn't want to go to jail. But his lawyer told him, "Don't worry. You'll never have to go to jail with all that money. And the lawyer was right. When the man was sent to prison, he didn't have a dime.
This is the 3rd of 4 QP's using scrapN2Nspire's design Quest kits.(if you missed the first 2 (links are fixed) they are in previous posts).You can find the free kit here. The template I used is from Tami. This is template #157.Tami's blog is here.

Joyful & Bright freebie

First up another chuckle for today:
A wife asked her husband to describe her.
He said, "You're A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K."
She said, "What does that mean?"
He said, "Adorable, Beautiful, Cute, Delightful, Elegant, Foxy, Gorgeous Hot."
She said, "Oh that's so lovely. What about I, J, K?"
He said, "I'm Just Kidding"

Misty from C4M is giving away a free kit on her blog called Joyful & Bright. The kit is being given away in 7 days before it goes into her store. The LO was made using only the papers & ellies from the first 3 days.(which are still available for DL).You can find Misty here.

Freebie & A chuckle

Good Evening All
First up is the chuckle for today:
While cruising at 40,000 feet, the airplane shuddered and Mr. Benson looked out the window. "Good lord!" he screamed, "one of the engines just blew up!"
Other passengers left their seats and came running over; suddenly the aircraft was rocked by a second blast as yet another engine exploded on the other side. The passengers were in a panic now, and even the stewardesses couldn't maintain order. Just then, standing tall and smiling confidently, the pilot strode from the cockpit and assured everyone that there was nothing to worry about. His words and his demeanor made most of the passengers feel better, and they sat down as the pilot calmly walked to the door of the aircraft. There, he grabbed several packages from under the seats and began handing them to the flight attendants. Each crew member attached the package to their backs.
"Say," spoke up an alert passenger, "aren't those parachutes?" The pilot said they were. The passenger went on, "But I thought you said there was nothing to worry about?"
"There isn't," replied the pilot as a third engine exploded. "We're going to get help."

Now for your freebie. This QP was made using scrapN2Nspire's week 2 submission for Scrapping Fairy tales Design Quest. The kit is called Down by the Sea Shore and you can find it here. Template used #238 by Tami. You can find Tami's blog here.

Be sure to stop back by tomorrow for another QP freebie.

Daily Chuckle and a freebie

The other day my neighbor, who is blonde, came running up to me in the driveway jumping for joy!
I didn't know why she was jumping so excitedly but I thought, "what the heck", and I started jumping up and down along with her. She said, "I have some really great news!" I said, "Great. Tell me why you're so happy." She stopped jumping and breathing heavily from all the jumping up and down, told me that she was pregnant. I knew she'd been trying for a while so I told her, "That's great I couldn't be happier for you!" Then she said, "There's more" I asked, What do you mean there's more. She said, "Well, we are not having just one baby. We are going to have TWINS!" Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, I asked her how she knew. She said, "Well, that was the easy part. I went to Sam's Club and they actually had a home pregnancy kit in a TWIN-pack. Both tests came out positive!"

Karen from ScrapN2Nspire participated in Scraping Fairy Tales Design Quest and she is offering her 4 kits as freebies on her blog. I did 4 QP's. Today you get a QP from her "Road Trip" kit from week 1. The template I used is from Tami(template #92). You can get templates and page kits for free from Tami. You can find her blog here. You can find Road Trip Here.

Be sure to come back tomorrow for another QP.

Chuckle of the Day and a Speed Scrap Tonight

This woman rushed to see her doctor, looking very much worried and all strung out. She rattles off: “Doctor, take a look at me. When I woke up this morning, I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my hair all wiry and frazzled up, my skin was all wrinkled and pasty, my eyes were bloodshot and bugging out, and I had this corpse-like look on my face! What's WRONG with me, Doctor!?”

The doctor looks her over for a couple of minutes, then calmly says: “Well, I can tell you that there ain't nothing wrong with your eyesight....”

Karen from ScrapN2Nspire is hosting a speed scrap tonight over at Scrap N Pieces.

and just for participating you get this mini.

New LO's to Share

Hello All....
First up is the chuckle of the day.

A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a beautiful woman sitting at the bar.
After an hour of gathering up his courage he finally goes over to her
and asks tentatively, "Um would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?"

She responds by yelling at the top of her lungs, "NO!
I won't sleep with you tonight!" Everyone in the bar is now staring at them.
Naturally the guy is hopelessly and completely embarrassed and
he slinks back to his table.

After a few minutes the woman walks over to him and apologizes.
She smiles at him and says, "I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.
You see I'm a graduate student in psychology and I'm studying how
people respond to embarrassing situations."

To which he responds at the top of his lungs, "what do you mean $200?!"

First LO is done using Misty's(C4M) Kit "A Perfect Moment"
This next LO was made using "Rocket to the Moon by Amanda & Millie Designs
Template #265 by Tami

..and last but not least this LO was made using Tami's Flower Burst kit and her template #35

Chuckle of the Day

A little girl walks into her parents' bathroom and notices

or the first time, her father's nakedness.

Immediately, she is curious: he has equipment that

she doesn't have. She asks, "What are those round

things hanging there, daddy?"

Proudly, he replies, "Those, sweetheart, are

God's Apples of Life.Without them we wouldn't be here."
Puzzled, she seeks her mommy out and tells her

what daddy has said.To which mommy asks,

"Did he say anything about the dead

branch they're hanging from?"

Friday's Chuckle

A man placed some flowers on the grave of his dearly departed mother and started back toward his car when his attention was diverted to another man kneeling at a grave. The man seemed to be praying with profound intensity and kept repeating, "Why did you have to die? Why did you have to die?" The first man approached him and said, "Sir, I don’t wish to interfere with your private grief, but this demonstration of pain is more than I’ve ever seen before. For whom do you mourn so deeply? A child? A parent?" The mourner took a moment to collect himself, then replied, "My wife’s first husband."

A Chuckle and New Kit by C4M

Hello Everyone. First up a little chuckle for the day:
Three men were sitting in a bar talking about how whipped they had their wives.
The first two kept bragging about how they could get their wives to do anything.
They looked at the third man and he said, "I have my wife so whipped that the other day I had her crawling towards me on her hands and knees."
Both of the other men were very impressed and asked him how he had managed that.
The man replied, "Well, I was lying under the bed and she crawled over and said, "Come out and fight like a man!".

Next up is a LO made with Misty's new kit called "Forever Starts Today". I just love the name of the kit. You can find this kit along with all of Misty's fabulous kits here. Also all of Misty's monograms are on sale for $2.50(normally 5 bucks). If you head over to Misty's blog she is giving away a free monogram set(a letter every day) that matches Katie's(Just So Scrappy) Just Pink kit in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month.
And last but not least template is by my go to gal for templates Tami. Tami always has free templates and free page kits on her blog. You can find Tami's blog here.
This LO is from my nephew's wedding. He got married in beautiful but wet Larkspur, Colorado.

Morning Joke

A cannibal was walking through the jungle and came upon a restaurant operated by a fellow cannibal. Feeling somewhat hungry, he sat down and looked over the menu.

Tourist: $8.00
Broiled Missionary: $10.00
Fried Explorer: $12.50
Baked Democrat or Grilled Republican: $100.00
The cannibal called the waiter over and asked, "Why such a high price for the Politicians?"

The cook replied, "Have you ever tried to clean one?
They're so full of shit, it takes all morning."

Hope you got a chuckle this morning.

Some More Freebies

Welcome to the First Digi Scrap Connect Blog Train. This blog train is
comprised of 24 fabulous designers who have been participating in the Design
Factor Challenge the last 5 weeks. For our 5th challenge, we were required to
make an element pack using CU items. Since 1/2 of the items for all the kits
would be coming from the Scrap Matters great challenge freebies, we were worried
that we were going to have flowers, ribbons and strings coming out our ears with
this challenge :). We decided to have fun with it and turn it into a great Blog
Train by adding some fabulous papers as well. Flowers, Ribbons, and Strings Oh
My!! the blog train was born. We hope you have fun collecting the great mini
kits. If you get lost along the blog train, just return to Digi Scrap Connect
to find the list of all participants.
Here is my preview.Download link at end of post.

Good Morning everyone. Over the past 5 weeks I have been participating in the Design Factor, hosted by Digi Scrap Connect. I am not a designer but thought I would give this a try. Keep on the lQQk out because we are doing a mini blog train for papers to match our element assignment for week 5. There are lots of freebies. These are my entries for the first 5 challenges.

WEEK 5-WE HAD TO RECOLOR CU ELEMENTS WITH A CERTAIN PALETTE

WEEK 4-WE HAD TO USE ONE PARTICULAR SHAPE

WEEK 3 WAS USING A MONOCHROMATIC PALETTE WITH COLOR POP

WEEK 1 WE HAD TO MAKE A KIT FROM SCRATCH NO CU ALLOWED

As anyone can see designing is not for me, but I like it and will be doing some mini kits for blog trains in the future. I think the more I do the better I will get. Only time will tell. I learned a lot doing these challenges and they have given me a new found respect for designers.
