Scatter Sunshine

I thought this would be the perfect card to end the month on, "Scatter Sunshine."  What a perfect image from artist Sherri Baldy at www.myBestiesShop.com  Her new stamps are just precious!! I am so lucky to be celebrating with her every year.  She is so special.

Question of the day, ???

Which of the Sherri Baldy images that I created with this month is your favorite?  not necessarily the card itself, but the image used

What happens next?

There's a couple of the last days that do not have prize winners yet, they will be filled out shortly in the next two days and a grand prize winner list of some of the more expensive goodies will also be posted soon as well.  Then all the prizes are won :)  Keep your eyes on the Prize winner list and for a GRAND PRIZE winner list which is soon to come!

Then I will start the tasking of going through my lists of winners and their requests and my goodies to create packages for everyone.  Watch each day to see your name at the bottom of the posting to see if I have mailed your package.  I really appreciate everyone's patience, I have a TON of packages to mail out.

If after I say I have mailed all the goodies, if you didn't see your name, LMK!!  I keep a pretty detailed written list in which I mark everyone down and which day their package gets sent.  Occasionally a mistake happens, if so, I will be sure to fix it :)

For Digi Prize winners, I will one company at a time, email the images to the winners of that Digi. If it's a digi prize, I will email you a contact with the company whom you will pick your prize from.  Please be patient for the digis. I know it seems simple but it's a lot of image wrangling and list names.

Memories

I hope you have all been having a great month celebrating with me.  I have collected all your info in my trusty notebook and I am starting to package up many items already.  Please play along for the last day and I will be announcing the last of the winners as we enter March.  I thought this adorable elephant stamp from Twistoons was just perfect for today with the sentiment, "The best things about Memories is making them."

Question of the day, ???

Any last minute favorite things or last minute requests?  you never know what I have

It is in herself...

I thought this Unity stamp and sentiment were just perfect for this month's celebration. "It is in herself, She will find the strength she needs."    How great is that.  For someone facing something like brain surgery, it's perfect.  Isn't this a stunning stamp? I just love Unity Stamps and sentiments

Question of the day, ???

do you use die cut/stamp matching sets?  They are super popular and I have a ton of them as prizes because I know so many people love them.

I wish I could say I did, but I just don't ever seem to get them to line up perfectly and I get frustrated with them.  I just fussy cut when I want to cut something out.

Friends make life Bear-able

Sharing this lovely Lili of the Valley image today with a sentiment I have, "Friends make life bear-able."  How sweet is that!  Thanks so much everyone for joining in  this month and playing with me.   I am trying to keep the winner list updated, if you see your name in BLUE print let me know, I probably either haven't marked you off or maybe I didn't get your email.  Either way, please double check with me to ensure I have  your info!

Question of the day, ???

I tend to make square cards a lot, usually 6" or just a shade under so they will fit in my 6" envies.  Else I will do 4.25x5.5

Home is Where Your Sun Shines

Here's a wonderful Bestie stamp from Sherri Baldy today.  I am so happy that she celebrated with me this month. Her stamps are so beautiful. I am proud to say that I was one of her original stamp team almost 10  years ago.  How cool is that?    Sharing some nice lace today, I got it in Turkiye, but I don't consider it Turkish lace as it was bought in a scrapbooking type store in a package.

Question of the day, ???

what is your least favorite embellishment?  that item that everyone else loves but you never use on your card?

I have lots of washi tapes but don't seem to use them.  I never seem to use alphabets, I don't use grungeboard or chipboard very often.
