Bling to the Max.................

Its showtime at the playground crafters.  Dustin is challenging you to do a super star shiny blingy thingy on his blog. This is my design team contribution to the challenge, meant to encourage and entice you to have fun at the "Playground."  Go ahead... you know you want to play...

Spooktastic!!!

Is there anything better than Halloween for great project and card ideas?  I could have a whole room of just Halloween stuff if DH's wallet would hold up.  Which is really funny because we haven't had trick-or-treaters at the house for over 30 years.  The grandchildren come over, but it isn't the same as adorable ankle-biters gnawing on your porch posts for treats.
Dustin Pike is giving you the perfect opportunity to share your flare for Halloween with his "Spooktastic" challenge this week.  There are loads of Dustin's Halloween images available in his store.
 Check out the super "freebie"  in colored version or B&W  available  on his blog.
I hope you like my spooky addition to the design team inspirations....

Glitter and Cardinals

I have to tell you guys... I love the "look" of winter... I really do not care for the feel and the ice and the shoveling...etc....  I found this digi somewhere last year and it reminded me of my late mother.  She loved to watch the birds at her feeder in the snowy months of winter in Western New York.

I just added the glitter paper in the back for some sparkle.  I couldn't make myself add snow.
