~ Calendar Girls Quirky Holidays ~

   Here we are again for another new round from the Calendar Girls group. 

This is our first challenge of 2014 and to start us off in style, our leader

Jeanette , aka Forest Ranger, proposed the following - Here's in her own words :

" If you’ve ever been any of the swap threads that I participate in, you know that I like holidays, normal ones, weird one, funny ones.

EVERY day is worth a celebration. So, for this month’s Calendar Girl challenge, I want you to select a holiday that is CLOSE TO

your own birthday and make a card for that holiday. If you need help finding holidays, check out
 this wonderful site

Now please don’t feel like you HAVE to make a card that is for that holiday… just one that is inspired by that holiday. "

For my birthdate , in November, I found the following three choices:

 *Computer Security Day: 30
*National Meth Awareness Day: 30

*Stay Home Because You're Well Day: 30

 I chose  *Stay at Home Because You're well Day* :o)

The possibilities for creating for THIS particular fun holiday are endless!

After seriously considering at least half dozen stamps

(mostly haven't seen ink yet!) I chose this cutey patootey

one, that was gifted to me YEARS ago and finally got inked

for this challenge. I thought it was just perfect for my card

since I enjoy relaxing on my comfy couch when I can (how funny that 

my couch in our family room is shaped exactly as this one in the image lol :o) 
Of course ,I LOVEEEE chocolate too,the dark kind, although I'm trying  reallyyyyy realllllyyyyy hard to behave lately.....

 Here's  Chocolate Riley...taking it veryyyy easy indeed... 

If I could stay off work 'just because I'm well' you'd probably

find me on the couch, with my special 'love blankie' on, as well as a treasured book...♥

Thanks for the GREAT challenge Jeanette, I always enjoy reading about

such funky and quirky holidays celebrations! ♥

 ~ Blessings to all of you, thank you for stopping by! ~
