Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge #36

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!  May 2011 be heaven for all of you!  My goal for this year?  To get published.  I just have to make some cards and get them sent in!  I can't show them [until they are rejected or actually published] that is hard for me-- I like sharing with you all!!  What are your craft goals for 2011?



Wasn't real sure about this card - I kind of kept adding to it - and this is the end result.  Okay - but, yeah - okay.  Speedy's challenge this week is to use a new item.  I used my new Spellbinders Calibur scallop die.   I just needed a little bit - this die is HUGE - like 12" but that's okay, makes it easier to line up.  I used MFP's Hearts, Hearts Hearts stamp set.  I really like the hearts in this set.  The lace is also from MFP.  We hope you come on over and play at Speedy the Cat's Blog Challenge!  Just FYI this will be the last month of easy challenges.  We are going to be stepping it up!  Be prepared-- it might actually turn into an actual challenge site!  LOL  Thanks for stopping by~~
