Sparkle & Bling

Happy Friday, bloggers.  This will be my last post until Tuesday, because we are heading to California for the weekend to visit our daughter at college.  We miss her SO much, and haven't seen her (other than on Skype) since we took her to college in late August.  It's going to be a wonderful weekend.  I can't wait.

But first, I wanted to post this little card I made for the weekly challenge at Simon Says Stamp.  Each week, they give away one of these:

The challenge this week is to use sparkle and bling, so I did a soft toned Anniversary card and I added glitter to my Prima flower, and a Maya Road gem pin.  I hope that's "blingy and sparkly" enough.  This is the one I really want to win because their store is AMAZING.  You can check it out here:  http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/


You can read about, and even enter, the challenge by clicking on the following link:

I hope that each of you has a wonderful and blessed weekend.  I will see you all next week.  Thanks for stopping by.

Blessing to you all,

Karen

    Hi there hun.... got your comment on my blog. I am not sure why you have not had comments previously from the DT when you have entered our challenge on Simn Says Stamp. We always do our best to comment on all entries each week. I can only apologise. We really appreciate everyone who enters each week because without you all we would have no challenge. xxx
