Seasons Givings Blog Hop 2015

***Giveaway now is closed, winner has been announced***



Hello friends! We are closing 2015 and entering into a New Year, wishing and hoping is a much better for everyone. Today, I want to say "Thank You" to all of you, who have made this year a great one.

Thank you for he bottom of my heart for your friendship and support in this 2015.


I want to share with you a card I made recently using new stamps and Sparkle markers I got from Crafter's Companion, I know not everybody loves coffee, so I made this super cute card to celebrate tea {wink, wink} The new Sparkle markers are great, for this card I used Tea Time Treats  and a couple of my new Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers: Cosmos and Moonlight to color the image. I die-cut a piece of gold cardstock using the super cute Cottage Lace Die.

  109. This is a very cute card!! I really like how the tea cups are stacked! I also like that you include your child/children in your crafting. My daughter is always nearby when I'm at the craft table. She also is very artsy. Although, she goes towards the drawing side. My oldest daughter is beginning with the arts. She made small votive candle holders for Christmas presents. Thank you very much for sharing and participating in this blog hop and Happy New Year!!
