Some New News and a Freebie!

Good morning! Well it is snowing again here in the Illinois Valley! And going to get COLD again! Winter has definitely come! Maybe this weekend I will make a snow angel...Holly from Hogwild About Stamping had asked me one of our first snowstorms for a snow angel...hmmm you might get it Holly! Anywhooo...I know I have been a little slow in getting my cards designed for the blog...with the holidays it has been rough as I am sure it has been for all of you! However, there is another reason I have not been creating as much....I am now a new digital designer for Stamping Boutique!! Tracey has been so kind to take me on as a designer of digital sentiments. Thanks so much Tracey for having me on board! To celebrate my debut, I am offering a freebie here on my blog. Please take it, leave me some love, and enjoy it! Wish me luck on my new venture. Thanks tons for stopping in to see me today...I do appreciate each and everyone of you.

Hugs,

Vicki

Just Because

Good morning! Oh my gosh it is so cold today! I just wanted to stay home in bed this morning but I am up and going. Today's card uses another cute little Audrey image from The Stamping Boutique...isn't she a cutie? Tracey makes these images so easy to color...I was afraid of coloring the hair at first but the shading is just perfect...all you have to do is color! I cut the image out and sat it on an oval nestie. The paper is from a paperstack from DCWV...and I used my new MS Loop punch as well. The sentiment was stamped with a JustRite stamp. If you haven't been to The Stamping Boutique for a while, head on over there to see all the new images released by Tracey and Stef...they are awesome. Well, I am off to work! Have a great day today! Thanks again for stopping by!

HUGS,

Love

Well, I am hoping everyone's holiday was wonderful! I am trying to get back into the blogging groove...I received a lot of new crafting items for Christmas that I want to play with but the last 2 days I have been a little off....now my hubby would say I am ALWAYS off LOL! Anywhoooo, my card today was created using a new punch that I received from my sweet friend Stef...it is the Martha Stewart Loop punch set...which contained both the corner punch as well as the border punch. Really cool punch! The image I used on my card is one of The Stamping Boutique's new images called Audrey Saving Her Love...isn't this the most awesome image?I colored her with Copic markers....used a little chalk for the background. Added some brown ribbon....really like brown and pink together. Thanks for stopping by to see me today...I promise to get my rear in gear and come visit you very soon.

HUGS!
