On the eighth day...

...a new card for the new year!
Made it for the Simon Says Stamp challenge (new pearls), CAS-ual Friday challenge and the 10 Minute Craft Dash challenge...


I didn't think I could do it, but hey, it's the new year! Time to try new things. ;)


And I finished under ten minutes! 9:21, to be precise. I videotaped it, but I'm having problems uploading it, so maybe later. ;)


If you'd like to win a large flat rate box stocked full of papercrafting goodies, you can participate in the my twelve days of Christmas challenge by checking out THIS post, or linking up your card on the sidebar!

Thanks for stopping in and happy new year!

  1. This is so pretty! I love those patterned paper pennants and the stitching! The saying "less is more" is SO true for this beauty.

    So thrilled you were able to join in the 10 Minute Craft Dash, Clare. I hope you can play in my challenge again!
