I thought this set is just too cute, it won't be hard coming up with some fun designs. I have a shoebox swap I'm going to on Monday, so I plan on using this card. I think Marina Mist is turning out to be one of my new favorite colors too! :o)

Mojo Monday

It's been awhile since I've done a Mojo Monday sketch, click here to see what this weeks sketch is. I used a new SU! stamp set for this card, Artistic Etchings. For all you Paris lovers this might be a set you need to add to your collection. I can rarely do a card without using the Big Shot, so I used the Ovals Die and the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. Love Love Love the embossing folders, just adds so much to the card and it's so easy :o). Another favorite of mine are the Rhinestone Jewels, I was so very happy SU! now have these available. Woo hoo!

Woo hoo an Award!!

It was so nice to open my email and see that one of my good stampin buddies had sent me this Stylish Blogger Award. I never win anything, ha ha, just had to say that. But anyway, thank you Nancy for this wonderful surprise, it definitely made my day! You can check out Nancy's fabulous blog here

So now you need to share 5 'stylish' things about yourself. Oh my, I don't really see myself as stylish but here goes it...

~ I can never have too many pairs of tennis shoes... I probably have a style and color that could go with any outfit.

~ With my kids older now, I downsized my wheels from a SUV to a cute bright green VW beetle bug with a tangerine tango color gerbera daisy in the vase.

~ Diamonds are a girls best friend, need I say more? Oh, even if it's a tiny nose stud :o)

~ I love smelly lotions and candles, especially tropical scents.

~ And, of course I can't leave out one of my obsessions....I have something on me at all times that has to do with Twilight, whether it be a bracelet, t-shrit, tote, book, picture and so on.


Now it's my turn to forward this Stylin award onto....
