I will be listing this valentine Stitched Scrapbook Mat Set this week. My eBay name is lavenderwolf7. Good luck on the contest. That little bear is really cute!!

More Than Pretty

I'm still in destash, organize, and cleaning mode around here. I have added some vintage flea market finds to my shop. Some of the items I really love but honestly have no use for. I'm trying to adopt a simpler life style. Things have to have more purpose than just to be pretty! Its going to be a hard habit to break. Especially when I go antiquing and junking! I have also added a few more Valentine items too.

The Pink Stamper Blog Hop

Last night was The Pink Stampers 1st blog hop. It was different from any blog hop I have ever seen. You had to sort of solve a puzzle by going from blog to blog to figure out the challenge. It was fun and cute. This is the card I made. I use my Gypsy and Cricut. The heart shape is from Martha Stewart's All Occasions Cake Cartridge. I think this cartridge is a must have if you have a Gypsy. There is just so much you can do with it. I hope you LOVE it. hehe

Card Sketch

I just wanted to tell you I will post about my Valentine Give away tomorrow. And I will pick winner from this post Friday. All your suggestions on my excess of lace and trim has been great. I have listed some themed packs and grab bags in my shop. I made the card above for a challenge on the blog Card Patterns. Its a sketch challenge. Sketch challenges are perfect for me because I just need a place to start with when making cards. After I have a sketch in mind the sky's the limit! See you tomorrow!

Hearts

I'm hoping to grow a lot this year. I'm listening to my heart and like I have said in the past I REALLY want to design for companies. So while I have been dreaming of my dream job I have been making cards every night for practice and fun. I listed this one in my SHOP. I don't think I'm going to keep my shop as full as I have in the past. I really love creating new things everyday at my own pace and not feeling rushed or pressured. I also have added some other Valentines day goodies to my shop and I have been gathering things for a Valentines giveaway to show appreciation to all the followers of my blog! Details of that soon.
