♥ Happy New Year! ♥

Happy New Year everyone!! I hope that 2014 brings us all peace, happiness and good health!


And speaking of New...it's time for a NEW challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Blog!

This week our challenge to you is "Something NEW"! New Year, New Car, New Baby, New Home, New Craft Supplies, etc!


And this week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by My Favorite Things. I chose to use the clear stamp set called none other than "New Beginnings"! It is full of some great sentiments and quotes! And not just for the New Year but for other milestones as well! I also used the Stacking Star Die-Namics by MFT as well! Those can be used all year long!! ;)


For the sparkly stars, I added some strips of Silver Glitter Tape to some cardstock and then die cut the stars out of it. I also used some Gold Glitter Tape along the border. Next to the gold tape, I added some Glossy Accents by Ranger and then some chunky glitter for some added sparkle. The Wooden Clock is by Prima. I finished it up with some Clear Sequins and Twine.


And don't forget, the super sweet and generous Heidi will give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!





Have a wonderful first day to the New Year!

hugs...
