Well the first month of January is coming to an end in less than an hour. I accomplished some of my goals, did you??
Stats for the month:
36 cards made - a few of them Christmas!
15 pages scrapped - off to a great start!!
6 books read - I had 5 picked out, goal surpassed!
Blog at least 20 days out of the month - check!! Went way over that :)
Try a new technique - check! (ribbon through a button on a card- way cool!)
I won a few blog candies - yippee!
Oh...and...uh...I flunked the no paper challenge yesterday. I couldn't resist some clearance paper at Michaels - American Crafts 60 sheets for $4, I got the Jolly collection and the Backyard collection...and a new K&Co Valentine paper pad with a coupon.
I think 2010 is off to a great start! Let's hope February is just as awesome!

This weekend Danni chose Magnolia Stamps to play with, I had hoped to get a lot done but sadly, that hasn't happened.
I did finish this card last night for one of my card group's sketch challenge.

This is Chef Tilda and her rolling pin from the Yummy from the Tummy collection. I got the fall kit from Magnolia Stamps and these were part of it...its winter and I finally inked them up LOL!
Check out the blogs of Danni, Nancy & Kimberly to see what Magnolia creations they have been posting!
Card Supplies:
Stamps: Chef Tilda & rolling pin ~ Magnolia Stamps, sentiment ~ MFT, cupcake ~ The Cat's Pajamas
Paper: Basic Grey Nook & Pantry
Copics: E00, E02, R21, R24, R27, E41, E33, E35, E37
Other: ribbon ~ Michaels, CM circle punch

Flutter By Wednesday #94
It's time for another Flutter By Wednesday!
No extra challenge today, just be sure to use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your card/project and link it to the Flutter By Wednesday blog.
I'm sorry that I don't have a card to share with you today. It's Tuesday night as I'm typing this and I haven't felt that great since Sunday night, so I'm giving up and getting some extra rest.
Be sure to visit my fellow DT members for some fluttering inspiration. Their links are on the left sidebar and on the Flutter By Wednesday blog.

Christmas Magnolia Blog Hop!
Good morning!
If you've hopped here from Jenn's blog, then you are in the right place! If you just happened to stop by, please start the Magnolia Christmas hop at Julie's blog!
For my card, I am using Santa Edwin...at least I think that is his name. I got him in an image chain last summer.

I got to use my Basic Grey Wassail for the first time, I bought it when it came out and then misplaced it lol! I think my favorite part of the card is all the fun flock on Santa's suit.
Your next stop on the hop is Lauren. Hope you are having a good time!
Card Supplies:
Stamps: Magnolia
Paper: Basic Grey Wassail
Copics: E00, C1, Y15, E57, N7, R89
Other: cotton ball white fun flock, snowflake brad from stash, gold spica pen

Squigglefly Challenge #33
Happy Monday!
It's time for a Squigglefly Challenge. This week it is Kim's group's turn to show us their Squigglefly stuff. I was planning to make a card to show here, but I ran out of time!
If you would like to play along, please make a summer card using a Squigglefly image and link it to the Squigglefly blog {HERE}. If you don't have any Squigglefly stamps yet, hop on over there to check out all the great releases from this past Saturday. I bought some and hope to share some creations later this week :)
Have a great day!
