back to our regularly scheduled program...

Hello everyone! Just a quick post; I hope you had a very merry Christmas - I did! Fun with family and friends, great food...only not-so-great thing was my throat bugged me for a little while...but all's well that ends well. ;)

I tell ya, my paper stash must've doubled yesterday! Got a few Basic Grey collections and Cosmo Cricket "Everafter". Seriously, I LOVE the "Everafter" line! I made a card with it today, but I didn't have enough light to take a pic...maybe tomorrow.

So, here is the second card I made with my new Nesties!

For 365 Cards, and Crafty Creations,





These fantastic flowers came from Judy and I was SO happy to receive them! First Prima flowers I've ever used...probably misused them, but what the heck! They look great anyways! ;) Also my first time using any of the pearls, which I've always longed to use...thanks once again, Judy!

I have to say, I was pretty disappointed with myself; for some unknown reason, I thought the Nestablities would make the card look great and I was pretty frustrated when they didn't. I had made four cards with them, not one completely satisfying me, but today, thanks to the Everafter line and Debbie Olsen over at Thinking Inking, I am proud to say I made a decent card with them! But, that's the card I was saying I didn't have nice enough light...so, yeah, maybe tomorrow.

I also just wanted to warn you that you'll be seeing a new look on my blog tomorrow, and that a couple days after (Tuesday, I think), I'll be changing the name. If you're a follower, don't worry, you'll still be linked up, but for those who just drop by my blog every now and then, just keep an eye out on Sunday, when I'll release the new name and look.

Anyways, thanks for stoppin' bye! ;)
