"Smell The Roses While You Wait"

Good Morning Everyone! It has been a little while since you have heard from me... did you miss me? LOL! I have been busy getting some other chores and things caught up! This morning I have a wonderful creation to share with you! I created this card for Paper Creations Ink Challenge #7 "Show Us Your Flowers"! This challenge starts today through Wednesday, August 31, 2011 at 7pm CST.



You are probably wondering... who the sponsor is... well it is Crop Stop! Haylie-Jo has so graciously given us a $15.00 gift certificate to award one lucky person! And as an added bonus... Crop Stop has awarded all of us a coupon code "PC8" for a 10% discount to their online store for the duration of this challenge! Wooo Hooo... What that means is... ANYONE WHO SEE'S THIS COUPON CODE AND USES IT AT CROP STOP WILL RECEIVE A 10% DISCOUNT ON THEIR PURCHASE, WITH NO MINIMUM ORDER AMOUNT!!! How COOL is that? I think it is awesome, so be sure to see if you need any replacement goodies or just want a few new items!!! Also, don't forget that we are always on the lookout for new talent... so be ready in case your creation is "Spotlighted" and you are asked to be a "Guest Design Team Member"!
