BLOG CANDY ALERT!! My friend Nikki at Military Wife Stampin' Spot is offering up some yummy blog candy in celebration of her 10,000 hits!! If you have not visited her blog before, you are in for a treat because Nikki has mad talent and always has beautiful creations to share!
Okay, I know you are probably tired of seeing this set, but this little chick is so stinkin' cute, I can't help myself!! Something different tomorrow, I promise. BUT, today I did Beate's sketch to make another Easter card. I just love doing her sketch, they are always so much fun! And, I am proud of myself because I did three challenge cards this week! I am hoping to do more SCS challenges as well because it will stretch my stamping abilities (which need stretching - LOL!) Anyway, here is my card! Sorry about the shadow, don't know why I have that since this is the same time I always take pics! I followed the sketch ALMOST to the letter - I did add a sentiment because it went so well with what I was trying to do! I again went with springy Easter-like colors and some of that yummy Bali Breeze Designer Series Paper - I just love it and need to order more!!!! The card is pretty simple really so I will leave the recipe and if anyone has any questions, just holler at me (loud though because I am in CA *wink*)Card Recipe:
Stamps - A Good Egg
Paper - Ruby Red card stock, Pink Passion card stock, Whisper White card stock, Bali Breeze DP
Ink - Black Stazon, Ruby Red Stampin Write Marker, Pink Passion Stampin Write Marker, So Saffron Stampin Write Marker
Accessories - Large and Small Oval Punch, Ticket Corner Punch, Paper Piercer and Mat Stach, Taken with Teal Narrow Grosgrain Ribbon, Two-Way Glue, Dazzling Diamonds, Rose Red Brads, Taken with Teal Buttons, Stampin Dimensionals
FACT #25
Christmas is my ultimate favorite holiday! I love the decorating, the baking, the stores, the music, everything! I always go overboard every Christmas - I just love to see my kids' face light up on Christmas morning! I love that my whole family is together and we celebrate the birth of Jesus together every year. I look forward with anticipation to the Christmas season every year and always feel a little bit let down when it is all over.
Hope everyone enjoys their weekend! I am going to a movie and eating Mexican food with my two SILs tonight so that should be fun! Bye for now!
