It's All in the Presentation

OMG! I found another blog and this one is right up my alley!
 The Blackberry Vine is all about gift presentation.
  I really do enjoy making very personalized

cards for my family and friends, but creating a matching bag or box (or in this case, both) brings it all together! You've got to check out this blog http://blackberryvine.blogspot.com/ Then click on Pretty Packages Party#12 for this month's party.

So many blogs, so little time!

This morning I was "blog surfing" when I came across a great challenge blog, Tuesday Throwdown and noticed a sponsor, mygrafico. Being somewhat new to the "digi world", I went over to the website to check it out. OMG! They have awesome SVGs, this being one of them! When I saw it I just HAD to have it. I did spend the extra bucks to get the license rights because it's so beautiful and I know I'll be making many cards with it. Thanks Tuesday Throwdown!

Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!

Happy Mardi Gras! We thought it befitting to make some
really fun things for Mardi Gras. Last night I made these festive
masquerade mask candies! I've never done anything like this,
but it was so much fun. (Now I can't wait to make some cute little
bunnies for Easter).

Since I'm mostly a card maker, this day wouldn't
be complete without a matching card! We hope you have fun today. Celebrate!
