A Few Fun Challenges

For some reason I am struggling getting back into stamping after my mini vacation!  I think it is because my Christmas cards are all done [and mailed!], so I don't want to make any more.  Meanwhile,  my stamp room has boxes and boxes of cards that I need to get sold!  My goal is to get a website and  upload them for people to browse at their leisure and hopefully buy some!  Oh good grief enough about my goals~ :)

This card is made for Freshly Made Sketches #14, Cheery Lynn Designs #5 (gold and silver), and Pals Paper Arts #123 Puttin on the Bling.  I used the butterfly and scroll dies from Cheery Lynn, and I used my hoarded glitter gold, silver and white papers.  When making an elegant card, I always go to my Verve stamps -- I adore the fonts.  This sentiment is from One Person.

Thanks for stopping by~

I remember you mentioning this goal of a website for your cards when we had lunch in the summer. I sure hope you manage to get this done in 2012. :) I know it'll ease your mind.

And you've got all your cards done and mailed for the holiday?? Lucky girl!
