A New Challenge Blog!!!

Good Afternoon Everyone, Happy Friday!!!! Sorry I have been MIA this week. I thought for sure after my vacation I would come back ready to create, but for some reason I am in a slump and it took my Mojo...LOL!!!


I wanted to share with you that my good friend Angie has started a new challenge blog called Cas-tastic Wednesday!!! She loves CAS cards and this challenge blog is something way different compared to a lot in blog land. She already has a ton of sponsors lined up and a lot of fun and exciting things getting ready to happen......


Cas-tastic Wednesday is also looking for its very first DT. Do you love CAS cards??? She is looking for a group of designers that enjoy this style. You can find all the details HERE.


I thought since this was her very first challenge I would play along to help her spread the news!!!! She is offering a GREAT PRIZE to only lucky participant this week. Come on over and join the fun HERE.


I just had to use this darling NEW digi from Whimsy Stamps called Gift Horse created by our very talented Crissy Armstrong. This image is just perfect for those birthday cards or will be even fantastic come Christmas time. I hope you enjoy my card!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope everyone enjoys their FRIDAY!!!!

Here's the Recipe

  • Image - Whimsy Stamps colored with Copics
  • Sentiment- Misc. Stamped in Stazon Ink
  • Paper - Whisper White, Kraft, SU DP
  • Accessories - Cute little bow (found at the dollar store) Inky Dinky Drops
