Did Someone Say Presents?

Hello crafty friends!1 You will be happy to know I survived the camp out with my five year old and the drought ended with some much needed rain so all is good here.  I have a lot of crafty news to share so let me get started with that.

Ink Spots

-The fabulous Suzanne Dean is going to be in San Jose , CA October 22nd and 23rd teaching her amazing Copic classes and there are still a few spots left and you can find all of the details here at www.cmcroad.com.
- The CMC Copic Challenge #28 Vintage and Distress coloring is currently running so I hope you will join us.
And finally Inky Impressions Challenge Blog has a new challenge this week and it is one of my favorites...a sketch and our wonderful teamie Marion created this one.

OK I have to say I am not a big fan of ducks.  I don't have a reason just not my thing but I have to say this little Deliah's Ducky Christmas from Inky Impressions is just a cutie and I had a lot of fun working with it.  I paired it up with "Did Someone Say Presents?" sentiment.

 I added some Diamond  Stickles to the ornaments but I just couldn't get it to show up in the pics along with the Polar White Flower Soft on the hat.  The papers are from Echo Park called Season's Greetings, love these!!  The branch  punch is from Martha Stewart and it was colored with Copics.
  This week the Inky Team A has a lot of wonderful inspiration to share with you right HERE so please stop by and visit.  Enjoy the rest of the week and I will see you again in a couple of days.

Inky Impressions Dressed to Impress & DT News

Hello my crafty friends!! I am so happy to share that I am a new Design Team Member for Inky Impressions.  Inky Impressions has the cutest rubber stamps and they are made of the best quality rubber that stamp beautifully.  Today there is a new challenge starting at the Inky Impressions Challenge Blog

Dressed to Impress

We want to see you add something extra to your cards.  Whether it be a little or a lot of embellishments it is all about how you dress up your card. 

 For my take on the challenge I used Joseph and Lynette's First Day it seemed a perfect fit.  I thought the paper from Echo Park Happy Days is so cute by it self but to Dress it up a bit I added  a little bit of bling, swirls and ribbon along with the cute cherry charm that you can find here.
