*Exciting news to share!*


Oh friends,
today's the day!!
I have been keeping some super exciting news
 under wraps and can finally share! 


First, today is my daughter's 21st Birthday ♥
Yes, 3 daughters, and all of them with a birthday in December!  Gah!
Happy Birthday to my *baby*, Chrissy!
We have a fun afternoon planned and her birthday party at a restaurant this evening and we are all looking forward to the celebratory night of 20-fun!

*My news!*
I am over the moon excited to have been chosen to be on the 
Drive By Crafts Design Team!
Annette, owner of Drive by Crafts, is such a sweetheart 
and has an amazing online store filled with products
 from so many companies on the market.
There is truly something for everyone 
and she ships lightening fast!
Starting in January, I'll be posting on the Drive By Crafts blog
so stay tuned to see some inspiration made with products that you can buy.
I'm absolutely thrilled to be on the DBC team 
and honored to creating along such the other talented designers.
 Be sure to grab your favorite cuppa and stop on by 
and check out Drive By Crafts and browse and shop ♥ 


Today's also the day that the Ready, Set, Go! Challenge cards are posted
with Barb, Jeanette and myself.
The R, S, G challenge isn't an ordinary card challenge - it's out of the box!
We think of ways to REALLY stretch our creative minds,
and this month, Barb chose a theme of:  Fancy Folds.



 I made a fancy tent :)
I went with a tent fold style card because this card is for my daughter.
It's a super fun and a fairly easy fold and props upward as a keepsake
yet folds flat into an A2 size envelope.  
Brilliant!
The rest of the card was die cutting the heart shapes with an MFT die,
stamping and die cutting the Cool Day bear, and
fastening it to a card base.
Super quick coloring with my prismacolor markers and then it just assembly.


Since there is not an inside to this card, I added the sentiment
to the back and a little matching heart ♥

Thank you for taking this exciting journey on my blog today!
I'm truly humbled and walking on Cloud 9 ~
and I hope today's card gives you some creative inspiration :)

The holidays are fast approaching ~
be well, be merry, be wonderful!

 Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
