Be Square!

Hey Prettie peeps!

It’s Wednesday! That means it’s time for another Pretties Wednesday Challenge over on the Paper Pretties Blog. This week the challenge is to create a square card. I LOVE square cards!

Today, I went with something a bit different. I made a super CAS card with a card holder. I am going to make a set of these cards and put them inside the purse as a holiday gift.

Paper Pretties stamp set called O Christmas Tree 

Come play along with us Prettie girls!

Hello everyone!

I hope that the week has been kind to you all.

My week has been rather hectic.

Ever have one of those days where you try to check things off of your long "to do" list... you know, the one where people needed something from you yesterday? Then when you do check something off, two new things pop up that need to get done immediately? Yeah... one of those weeks. LOL!

Well, the following has been one of the highlights of my crazy week.

Melissa (Pink Cat Studio) has a NEW Winter Digi Stamp release today!

Take a look at these adorable images...

Today, October 21st, when you purchase anything from the digital or rubber stamp stores you will receive the "Bird Ice Skating" digi FOR FREE!. It will be emailed to you separately and within 12 hours after you make your purchase.

Here are a couple of cards that I put together.

Hope you like them!

Now, it's time to hop on over to the Pink Cat Studio blog to see what the rest of the design team has come up with for this release! Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Birthday, Heather!

It’s birthday time for a special member of the Paper Pretties team.

Today Heather, owner of Paper Pretties, is celebrating her birthday!

Happy Birthday Heather!!

There's no better way to celebrate these special occasions other than throwing a Prettie Birthday Blog Hop!!Since we can't get together to celebrate in person, the next best thing is a virtual birthday party! Right?! The hop started at Cindy Haffner’s blog so if you didn’t come from there hop back now so you don’t miss out on any of the celebrations!

I decided to use my newest stash of designer paper from Prima. It's the Jack n' Jill Collection ~ "Daisy Dreams". I LOVE this line! It's so soft and dreamy. To go with this pretty paper, I've colored Everyday Lily with my copic markers. She is SO sweet and adorable!

In case you get lost along the way, here's the complete list of the stops for this birthday blog hop!

• Cindy Haffner
• Frances Byrne
• Jackie Rakoski
• Jana Weaver
• Jane Matsumoto  (me)
