A Late Post and a GIVEAWAY

Hello friends and happy Sunday evening. I am 4 days late posting my Paper Pretties challenge card from this past Wednesday. I am so sorry!!! To make up for me dropping the ball I am going to have a GIVEAWAY. One random commenter on this post will win 5 of my cards made with Paper Pretties stamps. Click this link and it will take you to all of the cards I have made using Paper Pretties stamps, and let me tell you …. there are tons. You can pick any 5 cards that you like, as long as I still have them and haven’t mailed them to someone.

Our challenge this past Wednesday was to make a MANLY card. I totally screwed this up by making a girly looking card. Ugh!!! Yes, it hasn’t been my week. LOL. Here is the card I made using the Sweet 16 stamp set.

Thank You Butterfly Birgitta

Hello and happy Thursday friends. I have a card to show you today that I made with some C.C. Designs images from All That Scraps. These stamps have been some of my all time favs for a couple of years now and I am so EXCITED to be on the DT now. I feel so blessed.

Today, I used C.C. Designs Butterfly Birgitta DIGI Image. The sentiment is from the NEW C.C. Designs Tags It Rubber Stamp & Die Set. The main image was stamped and colored on the Copic X-Press Blending Cardstock. Ladies, if you have never used this cardstock with your Copics then I want to tell you how awesome the colors blend when using it. So easy!!!! Here is my card.
