...many days from now thankfully! LOL
I'm so excited today as this is my 100th blog post! I started blogging last year in April and really never thought I'd go anywhere with it! It seemed so daunting and un nerving at the time...but look at this...I've written 100 posts and there are even a few of you who check in ever so faithfully! Thank you! You've been some of the most awesome encouragers along the way!
Enough rambling...and let's get down to business!
Enough rambling...and let's get down to business!
Over at Christmas Stampin' All Year Long this week we are excited to be starting a new challenge. This go round our theme is as always "Anything Goes" with the extra twist of adding some "sparkle and shine". So, break out the glitter, Stickles, gems, rhinestones, etc. and lets see how you "sparkle and shine".
Our wonderful sponsor for this week's challenge is Bugaboo!
They are offering one lucky winner 7 digis of their choice!
I had so much fun playing with the digi entitled "Chubby Santa - Candy Cane which you can find here.
I colored him up using my Spectrum Noir markers and then set about to adding some sparkle. I used red and white stickles on the candy cane, and some gold stickles on Santa's belt buckle. The peppermint candy embelly is from the Martha Stewart line and came all glittered up. I added some Glitter Ritz to Santa's hat, and lastly added some gem stones to various points on the card. I wish you could see this card in person...it really does sparkle and shine with all those elements catching the light. The sentiment is from TLC Creations, and the card base is once again a pre made base that I purchased at Michaels after the holiday season for a deep discount!
I encourage you to jump on the band wagon and get creating those Christmas cards along with us so you will have less stress during your holiday season. Link them up at CSAYL and maybe you'll be our next lucky winner!
Until next time...

So cute! Love that diagonal stripe background and that candy embellishment; it's perfect! I would like to see the card in person, because sparkle is so hard to capture with a camera (at least I find it to be so). Thanks for playing with CHNC2.
