Guest Designer over at Iris' Challenge Blog

Here is a cute little card that I made for the first of Iris's challenges.  I am a guest designer over there for several upcoming challenges.  Wink Wink Ink is the sponsor for this round.  I just couldn't pass up the opportunity .to use Melanie's cute valentine tree as well as twin Maltese digital images.  I was a designer over at Wink Wink Ink last summer and haven't had the opportunity  to play with some of Melanie's adorable digi's lately.  Why not hop over to Wink Wink Ink and check out her wide variety of off the top wonderful digi's.

Blog Candy 5 new stamps

For this round of blog candy, I have 2 Magnolia stamps, a Cornish Heritage house stamp, Elizabeth Bell Chickadee, and a Sugar Nellie stamp Nellie and Foal.  This blog candy will run through January.  All you have to do is leave a comment and if you aren't already a follower become one!  I will probably add several other candies throughout the month for extras too!  Good Luck!

Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #88

 For my sketch card for this week, I have used a cute little stamp from the Adorables Collection over at Sugar Nellie.  I just fell in  love with this adorable little girl.  She was colored with copics & glittered with dazzling diamonds from SU.  M y card stocks are from the Valentine Collection at K&Company.  I Added a jewelry dangle complete with heart charms and a locket that really opens.  My hearts were cut out of bazzill cardstocks with my cricut and then crystal lacquer was added to deepen the color.

This weeks sketch...it's "YOUR PICK" Make it fancy, clean and simple, or somewhere in-between. Remember to click on the sneak peek button on the side bar for the following weeks sketch each Friday.
