HIPPO Valetine's Day!

 Hi friends!

I have a new YouTube video up on my itty bitty channel!

In the video, and with this card, 

I'm sharing how I created an ombre blue Valentine's Day card

that will be for my husband.  

He's so sweet and says often watches my channel when he's at work

 just to hear me :)

Guess I won't be doing any crafty HAULS

of all the things he's buys me and doesn't know of new goodies! 

HA!

These cute hippos are from Clearly Besotted

and were exclusive to orders spending $60 or more.

Lucky for me, I did not!  

I got mine brand new from someone selling it in the forums - yay me!

I've also used the Lawn Fawn lawn cuts and distress oxides.

I would love for you to check out the video

as I'm trying to grow my audience 

and have some fun things coming up!

Thanks for stopping by!

CCEE2039 ~ Mushroom Month!

 Hello friends!

I have 'mushroom' in my heart for you!

First, join me in welcoming Hazel and Manal to our Design Team!

We look forward to working with you and seeing your cards!

And there's a new challenge at the CCEE Stampers this week 

and Frances continues as our September hostess with a FUN(gi) theme!

Her theme is:

According to the Days of the Year Calendar, September is Mushroom Month. 

So for our challenge this week, include one or more mushroom either stamped or die cut on your creation.

And here is my card this week!

It's true ...

I. Love. Bright. Colors!

I adore vivid, bright colors - including neon!

So I was super happy to find the Karin markers in Neon Colors

and have used them on a couple of cards already.

In going through my stash, I realized I have QUITE a few mushroom stamps

and *gasp!*

I didn't even know, LOL!

But most of them are with gnomes - and that's NOT a bad thing!

I chose to go with this adorable one from Clearly Besotted

and my card is super simple because it's being sent to a young child.

I paired it with this sweet sentiment from My Favorite Things

and done!

Stop on over to the CCEE Stampers blog to see all the Design Team cards

and if you'd like to link up yours, there's a linky at the bottom of each post.

Thanks for stopping by!

Big hugs, bigger blessings :)

I'll enter my card for consideration to:  Word Art Wednesday!
