Gina K. Design Team Challenge Spotlighting

Gina's challenge this month for the Design Team hop was to choose our favorite episode of StampTv. It was hard to choose one, but I decided to go with Spotlighting . The only reason I chose it was because I very rarely do it & I'm not sure why. The ribbon is the new ribbon that I got in my last Gina K order. I think I need a spool! *wink*

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C45 Red, Black & White

I read this challenge on Saturday & was really excited... Red, White & Black... right up my alley. I had the hardest time getting the card to come out right. I've had several different versions, with several different sets. I was super excited tonight when I got this to come together... then I went to the Crazy 4 Challenges blog & realized that I CASE'd a card from Lynda OY!!!! I guess that means I really liked her card! *smile* Thanks for the inspiration, Lynda!

ssnotime147 Christmas in July

My day did NOT go as planned... *sigh*... But, when it was all said & done, everything on my list got accomplished... including getting a card made. So, it ended well! *smile*

I made this for Sharon's Stamp Simply Christmas in July challenge. I need about 60+ thank you cards at Christmas to send out to an amazing group of women. It doesn't take very long for the postage alone to add up, let alone the cardstock, ribbon & embellishments. I am always looking for simple, but elegant looking cards to send out. Last year, I didn't get my cards made as early as I wanted, so I'm hoping this year will be different.

Stamps: Blessed is the Season Gina K., sentiment Thanks a million Gina K
