Cheers to the New Year {and lots of stamps for sale}



Happy New Years my friends.  I hope you had a wonderful time chiming in the new year with your friends and family. We had three neighborhood families over who have younger kids and the kids all had a ball playing until the ball dropped at midnight.  My two little guys may or may not have melted right at 11:58...but all is well as we ring in 2016!  I hope that 2016 brings all of you love, happiness and good health.  I am not much for resolutions, but did make a decision that I need to get back to my running.  Sounds like a repeat of prior years, but I just signed up to train for the Cincinnati half marathon again.  Time to get this 45 year old body in much better shape after lots of eating and drinking through the holidays! 

I popped down into my craft room to quickly play along with Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge. This Frantic Stamper snowflake die has been sitting patiently waiting for me to use it.  I water colored some card stock, die cut three of them and adhered them to the card. Finished off the card by adding the sentiment and some clear Wink of Stella on the inside.

And for those of you who are interested, I just posted a ton of stamps for sale on my For Sale page.  Pop on over and have a look. Would love for them to go to a good home.

Happy New Year!

Wish I had the gumption to get my chubby butt out to train....yeah, that's not gonna happen, but I do admire your determination. My goal is to add an additional work out above the 2 miles I walk, at least three times per week. And better nutrition. But I'm really here to comment about your pretty card, aren't I?! It's really lovely, and the colors are perfect for this time of year. Cool with a touch of warmth. Sweet snowflakes. Fun card, and I really like this! Bev
