Swiss Pixie Nora and Amy R Review

Friday, November 13, 2009

Hi there!! I've got a sick little girl (temp of 101.5 tonight) :(, so I don't have a lot of time to post, but wanted to get a card in for the review today at All That Scraps. We're reviewing the new winter Swiss Pixie cuties and Amy R Christmas Words.

I used the Nora Swiss Pixie, which I framed with some Rose Red paper. I punched the outer frame with the Martha Stewart Snowflake corner punch and I also used one of the new Cuttlebug folders for the snowflake border on the right side (it's the one called Winter Borders). Snowflakes EVERYWHERE on this card.
This is kind of a weird combo of colors, but I was inspired by some imaginesce paper that I had, so it's Baja Breeze, Tangerine Tango, and Rose Red with a little hint of lime stickles on the wings, gloves, and hair barrettes.

TGIF-- I had a battle with a penguin yard decoration this afternoon (stupid thing had been taken back to the store once and then I went to put together the new one today, it had a bunch of parts missing and I scratched my hand on it. It took about 2 hours for something that should have taken 20 minutes! Ugh! All I have to say is that my yard BETTER win something in the town decorating contest this year!! I have bloody knuckles and sore knees from hanging lights and putting together animated penguins! :)

Hoping Gabby feels better tomorrow so that we can all enjoy our weekend! I'm sure I'll have some other stuff to post this weekend and I also have a bunch of stuff that I'm going to be selling after I cleaned out some of my stamps. I need to make room for some new stuff! :)

Off to check on my baby and then watch that new Kathryn Heigl movie with my hubby-- he just got back from a work trip. Thanks for dropping by!
