GREAT NEWS!!!

Some of you have noticed something new on my blog in the side bar & I guess it's time to FESS UP and tell you what has been going on!!!! Soooo excited!!!!! Karen from Karen's Doodles asked me to be in charge of her Doodle Diva Gallery blog!!!! You all know how much I LOVE Karen's images, and I was thrilled to the moon when she asked me!!! I have been getting the cards from other places and submissions to the emails and putting them into the slideshows, which you can see HERE! I will be continually adding to them, so check back often for inspiration!!!

The slideshows are all categorized according to the categories that Karen has in her STORE! So, it is even easier to find some inspiration!!! So, head on over there to check it out!!!! Grab the blinkie for your blog too, so you can pop back ANYTIME!!!! Karen also has 5 challenge blogs running, so go check those out too!!! You can find all the links HERE!

Sooooooooooo, because I have been doing that (& yardwork) I wasn't able to get a card made for the challenge, but I hope to be able to play along from now on (in the USA challenge blog!)

Have a great week! Please scroll down to see my other post for the day!! THANKS!!

The Corrosive Challenge - DIE CUTS!!!

This weeks challenge at The Corrosive Challenge blog is to use DIE CUTS on your card. I used a die cut of the baby bear I got from Susies Die Cut Dreams, plus the swirl and the tags are die cuts (well, punches, but that counts doesn't it???) The paper is all from my stash, so is the ribbon, the pin, the brad and the pearls! The sentiment is from a PTI set.

Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your Sunday - I hope the weather is nice, wherever you are!!!
