Shopaholic!

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend, I know that I did! The best part about having a three day weekend was that for once I actually got everything I wanted to do complete, and I know that never seems to happen. I was able to catch up on a lot of swaps that I had fallen behind on, in fact I still have a few more I need to complete, but those aren’t due until early next month so I should be fine on those. The card I am sharing for today I created for Scrappy’s Elzybells card swap. It has been so long since I’ve inked up on of my Elzybells to create with and not stamp out images for a friend, and this little girl is one of my favorites, Shopaholic! I don’t know about you, but there is a little part in me that really identifies with this lovely lady. When I see new stamps I just want to click that ‘buy now’ button, but I know better. Okay, so I do buy a lot of stamps, but I try to be good from time to time, I think you know what I mean. Not only was I thrilled to use this stamp, but I was thrilled to use this adorable paper! This weekend I finally got up to AC Moore and they had these big boxes of 200 sheets of DP on sale for $14.99, I was so excited to see that when I got there I got the last box! So far I have used several different designs and I know I will be using this paper a lot more! Hope you enjoy today’s post! Have a great day!

How cute is this little guy! I ordered this stamp a few months ago when I got together some ladies and we all ordered and I am thrilled this cutie made it into my cart. I love the little inch worm guy as well, I mean how can you get a cuter stamp than that?! I signed up to be part of my friend Joy's decorative paper swap and this paper was just cute enough to to accent the adorable stamp! Hope you like today's bright card, I had a lot of fun creating it, thought it would warm us up on a cold wintery day.

I would love to win this new bella!

So ladies please send me an e-mail or PM on SCS with your address so I can send you all your winnings! Now on to your regular programming.....I made a card! You heard me correctly, I finally got my juices flowing and created a cute Wintery card, that I think I am going to use for a Birthday card....what do you think? I like the off centered oval, gives it a little something.

I also thought the ribbon should be something different so I started with a knot and continued adding a few more ribbon pieces to make it almost star like....I really like it!
