"It's Hard Work, Being Beautiful"

I just realized I have another post that I should have reposted on Friday, so I am posting it today! Sorry Everyone for it being late! Darn Blogger!

Good Afternoon Everyone! How is your Wednesday? Mine is busy, but the SUN FINALLY CAME TO WISCONSIN! Isn't that super exciting? I think so! This creation was created for The Latte Lounges May Challenge Week 2! Yep, I told you that we were doing things a bit different this month and here it is! Week 1 was to create a card for Mother's Day or Special Women In Our Lives! Now for Week 2, it is the same challenge; but add FLOWERS! And because it is week 2, we have added two more sponsors to the pot! Week 1 was The Stamping Boutique and now for Week 2 we are adding Digi's With Attitude and Glitterbabe's Digis! How cool is that? Anyways, I won't keep you to long today, as I have lots to do!

"Glitterbabe's Challenge #18"

This winter wonderland creations is for Glitterbabe's Challenge Blog. I fell in love with her wonderful Snowman and Hot Cocoa, that I had to make something! I have been starting to step out of my comfort zone into the big bad world of blog/site challenges! Since I know Stef that made it much easier to do her challenge! Thanks Stef for being you! I remember now why I normally don't play with old fashion glitter; I have a shake and well... lets just say, my craft room sparkles! LOL!
