MTSC50, OCC Musical Inspiration Challenge and IC209 Peace & Joy!!!

Happy Saturday everyone!!!

Are you all ready for Christmas??? We will finally put up our *Christmas Tree* today. With us gone before Thanksgiving it just didn't happen....but I'm looking forward decorating today!!!

I'm still in AWWWWE that it's December already....this also means we have a new challenge host for the OCC and it's no other then my fabulous, super sweet friend Jenny Gropp!!! As you already know I had the pleasure of meeting her and some other amazing ladies not to long ago...if you like..... you can read about it right here.

Jenny is challenging us to the *12 Days of Christmas Song*....you can find all the details on the OCC Blog. There is also a prize to win this week...so make sure to check it out!!!

I decided to use the *12 drummers drumming* lyric and ran with it!!!




















I used the awesome MTSC50 Sketch for my layout and I had to use the gorgeous Drummer Boy Set from Flourishes....it's just perfect for it!!!

Hope you have time to play along this week??? For all the DT Samples please visit the OCC Blog!!!

****************************************

Here is my card for today's IC209 - Charm Lady Boutique. What an awesome little shop!!!

I was inspired by this Dark Disco Ball Pendant.



















For my image I used the gorgeous new Peace & Joy Set from Our Daily Bread Designs.

The smaller snowflake from this Set was inked in Memento Desert Sand. The larger snowflake was inked in Versamark and heat embossed with Copper EP.

To finish the card off I distressed the edges, added the Gold Pearls and the Copper Ribbon.

Thank you for stopping by today.....have a great weekend!!!

Stamper's Dream - JustRite week - Day 4!!!

Happy Thursday everyone!!!

Today is Day 4 of the Stamper's Dream - JustRite week!!! If you didn't have a chance to follow along......then please stop by this post!!!

For today I created another gift idea!!!

As I was walking around Walmart the other night I found this super cute *giftcard box* and since *red* is my favorite color for the holiday season.....I had to grab this sparkly box.

Our oldest daughter Sarah is almost 12 yrs old...and by now she doesn't want me/us to get her anything but *Gift Cards* for her birthday or Christmas!!! Which is fine with me...because I don't have to worry about what to get her anymore - LOL!!! The gift cards are easy to buy and they can be presented anyway you like.... !!! So.... for her upcoming birthday I thought this would be super cute!!!
















I used the cute *Wish Big* sentiment from the Just Note - 1 5/8" Borders & Centers Set on the giftbox and on the matching card.

Please make sure to stop by Michelle and Laurie to see their JustRite creations for today!!!

Have a fabulous day!!!
