As for good news, the most joyful season is quickly approaching so the card I made today is one of many I hope to send out to extend Christmas greetings. The Bah! Humbug! Challenge this week was to make a project with our favorite "cutie" image. There are so many cuties in my stash, but this was a new one that I was eager to color. The paper is some I've had for a couple of years, but didn't use much because of the pink and black. This image and this paper turned out to be a really fun pairing! The sketch from I {heart} 2 Stamp lent itself well to the tall form of the image, so I am also putting this card in Jen's challenge this week.
Mo Manning's "Dani with Gifts" looks pretty in pink! I used Copics to color and stickles to sparkle. The DCWV Christmas Stack dp also has glitter. Simply topped off with satin flowers from Olfay in Michael's bridal department, and a bow with tinsel-trimmed organza ribbon.
I hope that big gold gift is for me!
Thank you for stopping by today! Now I just have to get back to the rescue in Chile. Every time that capsule rises to the top I say a prayer of thanks for another miracle.

Hi Barb,
I agree it has been amazing to see the miners appear one by one. Just hope they are given the support they will all need during the weeks and months to come as they recover from their ordeal.
As for your offering this week ... Well! She's a funky 'chick' and looking especially dazzling in her pink outfit laden with gifts. Love the pretty satin flowers - very lush. Thank you for sharing with us at Bah! Humbug!
Luv'n'Stuff
