Celebrate


Hi friends.  I am popping in today with a non-holiday card.  This card was inspired by showCASe your style and Addicted To CAS: Challenges.  I will also add this to "Just Us Girls" Challenge: Anything Goes.




I used the polka dot candle in the Happy Everything set by Clearly Whimsy.  Stamping them in the colors from the photo.  I stamped a stripe under the sentiment in versamark and covered it with Irridescent Ice Embossing powder for some added sparkle.  I also added a bit of sparkle to the flames with my wink of stella glitter pen but it doesn't show in the photo.

Before you go I want to share a sneak peek of this weeks StampNation challenge.

Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Magazine Special Thanks! Blog Hop


Hi friends!
 Today I am happy to be hopping along with many talented designers for the
Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Magazine special thanks blog hop!
You should have arrived here from Cheiron Brandon's blog.

I was so sad to read that this magazine will no longer be published.  I have always enjoyed flipping through and seeing all the amazing cards and projects that were featured in each magazine.  So much inspiration. 


My sentiment says it all!  To the designers, Go-to-Gals and everyone involved to make this magazine such a success!  I am very thankful for each and every one of you!  Thank you!

Now keep on hopping!
Your next stop on the hop is the amazing Kimberly Crawford!


Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Merry Monday #137 & Guest Designer @ The Challenge!


Happy Monday friends!
I am honored to be Guest designer for Dec. at The Challenge!
Thank you, Lesley for inviting me to play along.
I combined the Merry Monday challenge with the sketch at The Challenge!



 I thought adding a cute little Santa hat on the flamingo would make a cute card especially, for those that live in a warm climate.

I also wanted to share the Cyber Monday sale going on over at Ellen Hutson!

 
Christmas will be here before you know it.  Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over at the Merry Monday challenge blog and The Challenge!
