Something Fierce and a Giveaway!

I am in love with the papers from the Something Fierce collection in the new Seasonal Expressions Catalog with Close To My Heart. I was able to attend a regional launch event in December where we had the opportunity to play with the papers and complements from this collection along with the Year of Sweetness stamp set.

I love how these layouts and cards turned out! The great thing about the Something Fierce paper is that these colors can be used for either boys or girls or both. I was able to create these 3 2-page spreads and the 3 cards with just the addition of 2 sheets of white card stock.

I am happy to announce that I have the Year of Sweetness stamp set to give away to one of my customers. To qualify for this giveaway you just need to place an order of at least $30 on my website during the month of January. Will draw the winners name on February 1st.
