Field Flowers / Birthday DD # 76

October 26, 2013

It's Saturday, so that means Dynamic Duos comes out with a new color challenge.  This week it is Wisteria Wonder and Perfect Plum.   Although these colors look beautiful together, they are out of my comfort zone.  Anyone that knows me well, knows I LOVE bright colors.  I do like the way this card came together and know the perfect friend to receive it for her birthday.

Santa -Ho Ho Ho FMS # 109

October 26, 2013

It is a beautiful, cool day in Georgia.  I had a lot of Stampin' Up! orders to deliver this a.m. from my Open House!  Thank you to all my friends that came and supported me!!!!!

I finally got to finish this card for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.  I put Stickles all over Santa's fur and it took quite a while to dry.  I know it is hard to believe that Christmas is coming in just a few weeks.  I need to get geared up to do some of the things on my list in the next few days.
