Our theme this week is:

Its Party Time!

Happy New Year Celebration cards or party Invites!

Here is the card I made. I decided it needed to be EXTRA UBER glittery. Not only are the numbers covered in glitter, so is her dress. It's gonna be a sparkly new year!! I used the fabulous Happy Hour image from Kenny K and colored it up with my Prismacolor pencils. I added the white cardstock tuxedo shirt and grosgrain ribbon bowtie to the bottom of the card --to make it look classy.

Apocalypse-schmocalypse

So...major day coming up here in a few hours. The dreaded 12.21.2012.

(insert suspenseful music)

Were the Mayans right? Or, did they just run out of room on their calendar and figure that by now, someone would have come out with a new, updated version of their calendar--perhaps a swimsuit edition.

If you're reading this, then I would hazard a guess to say that the same people who predicted major catastrophes with the coming of the new millenium are the same brainiacs that decided that we're all going up in one GLORIOUS cloud of smoke today.

But, I could be wrong.

If so, then...well...then my entry below for Bombshell Stamps' monthly sketch challenge is for naught. If we're all still here, head on over to Bombshell Stamps Blog and play along with our monthly sketch challenge!

"So long and thanks for all the fish!"

inside the card...

Frosty Fun

Wow, it's actually getting CHILLY here in Texas. Enough so, that my hubby had to cover up the flower beds. But, knowing Texas...tomorrow could be 90 degrees.

It's challenge time over at Kenny K's Krafty Krew. And for this week's challenge, it's Frosty Hues all around. This means use the cool half of the color wheel...pale blues, frosted purples, silver, white...just about any color that says "Frosty" to you will do!

The first sponsor this week is our own Kenny K!

The prize from Kenny is the winner's choice of 5 digi's.

And our second sponsor is 

Loves Rubber Stamps

Laura's prize is the winner's choice of a $10.00 stamp from her store!

Here is my entry this week. I used the Sassy Miss Movie Star image. Doesn't her belly button get cold? 

Yes, she's colored with Copics. Don't get your hopes up. I'm not converting. The quaint little row of houses was cut out using a Cricut cartridge (um, I forgot which one, sorry). The fake snow flocking was placed in all the appropriate places with a shmear of crystal lacquer to hold it in place! 

I really share the sentiment of this card. I do miss snow. A lot.
