‘Peace’ to You & Yours …. & a Treasure Hunt too!
Hello, Friends!
Did you know that from now until the end of December, SCS is offering daily holiday challenges that are in addition to the usual daily challenges! So for those of you who are actually “ready” for the holidays or, like me, you have a “need” to find a few quiet moments with paper & ink, there’s a challenge out there if you have the time! My card is for the HCE01 challenge, which is an ‘inspiration challenge’ , shown in a couple of onsies photos. Check it out and join in! I took my inspiration from the brown onesie, with white & brown snowflakes.
My snowflakes are all embossed with clear EP, atop pigment inks in Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, and Adirondack Snow Cap. I couldn’t resist adding the large eyelets to represent the lower part of the onesie. Having 3 little g’son guys as my personal inspiration, I can attest to the admiration of the snap-bottom of onesies! ((I’m trying to wait very patiently for those treasured little hugs & smiles!!!))
I don’t know about you, but I know that I love a great bargain! Well, it’s Treasure Hunt Tuesday at Rubbernecker, and the successful treasure hunter will find $10 in Rubbernecker bounty! Arrrrrrrrrrrghhhhh! I do not hold the treasure here this week, but I can promise ye that 2 of my design team mateys DO hold the coupon treasures! So be sure to sail through me matey’s blogs to see who holds the bounty this week!
