Ciao! and Giveaway Update!

Happy Saturday!  Today, the kids and I are doing some last minute Halloween costume shopping/making :) Perfect weather for it---cold!

And...I will be spending some time inking up the newest Gina K release for the inspiration blog hops this week (they start Monday!)  These sets are so fun.

Here is a card using one of my favorite releases from last month-- You Say Goodbye and I Say Ello!

I used the coffee cup and mug as a little couple, obviously making the mug the girl  :)  I used some Shore baker's twine to add the bow to her "hair"!  Embossing the sentiment on the red ties it in with the coffee cup, the patterned paper and really makes it stand out.  I used some white paint to dot the eyes to make them stand out as well.

Supplies- Cardstock- White/Kraft (Gina K Designs); Patterned paper- Sweet Day: Peppy Pinwheel, Red (Echo Park); Stamps- You Say Goodbye and I Say Ello (Gina K Designs); die-notebook edge (My Favorite Things); baker's twine- Shore (The Twinery); white embossing powder; Versamark; ink- Memento tuxedo black (Tsukineko).

**Clean Out the Office Giveaway Update----Since the winner has not emailed me (and I have given her all week), I will post a new one tomorrow.  Same rules apply. The winner must contact me in three days in order to claim the prize.  Thanks for your patience.

Thanks for stopping by!
