Just made a card for fun using some girly and sweet Pink Paislee supplies. There’s something therapeutic about layering all these ephemera pieces, and I love not having an inky stampy mess to clean up when I am done.

I will be going on vacation within the next couple of weeks (more on that later, because one of my trips is to KANSAS to visit crafty friends - any guesses on who I will be seeing there?!?!) I am really looking forward to it!

Hope your week is going great! I’ve been so busy at work that I haven’t had much time to visit all of you to say hi - my reader contains over 1000 posts at this point, not to mention…I need to find a replacement for Reader, don’t I?

How’s your weekend going? Ours has been going great and even better now that I am able to share this card with you. I made it for this month’s Cloud9 Blog Hop, using several Wplus9 goodies. This month, I chose two coordinating inspiration pics:

I was inspired mostly by the color scheme of grey, yellow and red, and when I went through my holiday papers, I noticed that the City Sidewalks collection from Pink Paislee included all of those. I also decided to try something less CAS than usual, and this was NOT easy. This card took me 2.5 hours! For real! LOL!

I used the Simple Snowflake and Hearts and Clouds dies, as well as a sentiment from Iconic Christmas, which was stamped in SU! ink. I thought that it went really well with the Santa diecut from the City Sidewalks line. I would have loved to incorporate some ribbon or twine here, but I wasn’t sure where to squeeze it in.

I hope you will join us at Cloud9 this month! Your card does not have to be a holiday card - you just need to use at least one Wplus9 image…everyone is eligible to win a prize, too.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the holiday season!

Hugs,
Suzanne
