"A Million XOXO's"

Good Morning To All! Today I have a very special creation to share with you! I had so much fun with this one! This sweet image is by The Stamping Boutique. I just couldn't resist getting this image! If you know me... I am not really GIRLIE! I was raised more like a "Tom Boy" on a dairy farm here in Wisconsin. So this image is right up my alley (Notice The BIBS! LOL!) Okay, so I never had cute bibs like that, but I did have bibs! LOL! Might I add, when they were NOT cool!!

This creation will be entered into two challenges. 

The first challenge is a sketch challenge, which if you have not noticed are my favorite! I will be entering it in Priscilla Style's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #87. She always has two different sketches that you can follow each week. One is a Fancy Sketch and the other is a CAS (Clean and Simple) Sketch. I generally go for the Fancy one... to see if I can do it! LOL! See the sketch below and tell me what you think? Did I follow it? You have plenty of time to join in on this wonderful sketch challenge! The deadline date and time is Monday, January 24, 2011 at 7pm CST!

The second challenge I will be entering is Freshly Brewed Challenges #31. The theme of this challenge is "Spread Some Love". They are looking for creations that show Love or Valentine's Day! Come on over and enter into the fun! The deadline date and time is Tuesday, January 25, 2011 at 10pm CST!
