Happy Saturday! Just wanted to let you know that Kristen is giving away some really fabulous blog candy! I met her because she is a guest designer this month with me on Limelight Papercrafts and she's a fabulous stamper! You must see what she has to give away - click here!
Hello everyone! TGIF! It is supposed to be warmer here today so I am hoping for pool weather for the kids. Gotta get it while we can - we head back to frigid Wisconsin next week, eek!! Although at least I'll have my normal camera back and all my links, let me say, you don't realize how much you NEED the computer until you're away from it. But again, I'll take the sunshine and nice temperatures while I can!
Well, in the meantime, I have something special for you today! Today is the big reveal of the Limelight Papercrafts Design Team's "big project" for the month. This month was to make a Valentine's Day gift and card for a friend. How FUN!! Also, going on now at the Limelight Papercrafts webstore, select Valentine's Day items are 20% off. Great prices to begin with, and now a SALE!! I will meet you over there, you can view all the important details here.
Here is my Gift contribution for the DT this month. The little mailbox is from the Target {Twenty-Five} Dollar spot. *wink*. I covered it with some black cardstock and then added papers from the Basic Grey Bittersweet 6x6 pad. LOVE THESE PAPERS!!! I added a bunch of flowers that I had painted with Pink Poinsettia and Pixie Dust Shimmerz Blingz (those are brads in the center of the flowers but it's hard to tell in the pictures of course). The stamps on the mailbox are actually from Little Paper Shop, I love these beautiful saying from the {A Dream} set. In the top picture you can see my rhinestone heart, that was so much fun! Hopefully you can tell it's a heart, heehee. Then some wide grosgrain around the flag and we're all set on the side! 
Next is a view of just the card. Again, Bittersweet papers to match the mailbox. Also some Kaisercraft pink bling in the corners and my new favorite ribbon too {that awesome 5/8" textured yummyness Mandy carries!}! This image is from Stamping Bella -- it makes me smile and it looks DELICIOUS!! I colored it with varying shades of pink Copics.
Welcome to Limelight Sketch & Product Thursday! Mandy always has a great challenge for us, and this week is no exception! You can see the sketch {above}, and the product focus is...Pretty In Pink… The Pink Panther... Other than being movies, what else do they have in common? How about the color pink!?! This week at Limelight Papercrafts we are focusing on all things pink… with one exception… it must sparkle, shimmer or shine! We want to see your pink bling!!! Stickles, Shimmerz, Kaisercraft Rhinestones, sparkle fibers… You name it, Limelight carries it -and we want you to use it! Don’t have any that we carry? Use the bling you have, just make sure it’s pink! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
If you upload to SCS, use the keyword LLPC014. Here is my contribution:
Most of my products came from Limelight Papercrafts webstore, of course. Only the best! Pink bling from Kaiser, Love Robotz stamp set {Stampendous}, Bazzill Cardstock and Bling Cardstock....so much fun!
Did I mention that this challenge has a PRIZE??? Now that you've seen my project, head over to the Limelight Papercrafts BLOG if you haven't already, because if you play along and link up your creation, you can have a chance to win a jar of Shimmerz and a package of bling! Two of my favorite things! All entries must be submitted by Sunday, February 8th at midnight.
Limelight is also hosting the challenge today over on the Dutch Dare Challenge Blog to make a Valentine with non-traditional colors (no red or pink!). That is a totally separate challenge with another AMAZING prize, click the link for more details. In addition to snapping up ALL the bestest products for her store, Mandy is just sooo generous.
Oh, and tomorrow is the big Limelight Design Team project for February - a Valentine's Day gift and card for a friend! See you then!
I forgot to post in my PPS post for today {next one down}, that fellow DT member Lindsay is having some great blog candy this week for playing along! Click here to see all the details!
Happy Wednesday out there! I have a fun card to share with you today that meets two challenges - yay!! The first is from Pink Papery Studios - Wednesday is our design team challenge day and this week we had a SKETCH CHALLENGE!! My favorite!! There it is, above. Fun! I combined it with my other Wednesday goodie, Chrissy's Belli Challenge, which was HEARTS this week {CBC53} in honor of Valentine's Day! I paired my hearts with this cutie Devil's Food Cake stamp from Pink Papery Studios.
Thanks for stopping by today! We are still enjoying Florida, although it is COLD today {cold for Florida is kind of a joke for us Northerners, but since we came here for the SUN I will say "It is cold today!"}. Be sure to visit the rest of the Pink Papery Studios design team, and the rest of the Belli Challenge team for lots of eye candy and inspiration. {Both link lists are on my left sidebar}. The Belli team also has Jessica Smith as a guest designer this week, so say hi to her!
