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.

Please check out the PP blog for info on how to play along with the challenge, how to win this week’s prize and to see all the wonderful creations made by the DT.

Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you tomorrow.
