Just Hanging Around


Happy Wednesday! We are half way to the weekend!

As everyone knows, I am addicted to Sugar Nellie. When I won some stamps a few weeks ago they didn't have a few in stock that I wanted. I got an email a couple of weeks ago saying that I could get 20% off all stamps as a Sugar Nellie Birthday offer. I took advantage of that to buy the ones I didn't get free. This is one of them called Magna Girl. Isn't she cute. I really wanted one sitting down. I'm not one to do alot of cutting out but you almost have to with her.

I made this card for 3 challenges. The first is Mary Jo's Sketch challenge #95. I really liked the sketch she picked out this week. The second is for Stamp Something for Love. This week the challenge not only has a recipe of using Ribbon, 2 papers and 3 embellishments but is also a call out to make a card for Jaimie. You have probably read about this so I won't go into all the details again. If not please go to Stamp Something for Jaimie blog to read all about it. It is a story that reminds you of what is important in life. It also reminds me of all the big hearts in our crafting community. If you have a card sitting around, send it to Jaimie. The address in on the Stamp Something for Jaimie blog. The 3rd is the Basic Grey challenge. This was an inspiration challenge. The picture was Maroon & White so originally this card was not make for that challenge but while I was making it I thought of the picture so I figured that it inspired me so....

I have not put a sentiment on this yet. I still haven't decided what to put but will stamp something before I put it in the mail.

I love to see people come and look at what I have created. I would love to hear what you think. All comments make my day!

OMG, Peggy, that is fantastic! She's so cute. Yes, that is a lot of cutting but it's what makes the card. Love how you colored the tights and sleeves!
