DT - CLP September sketch

September is here!!
Which actually means that we're soon moving in to our new house :) And it means one more thing: A new sketch challenge on the CLP blog!!! Wow, I love Chelsea's sketches, I feel like the luckiest person in the world to be picked on her designteam :)
This month we're sponsored by Lili of the Valley. Aaawwwhhh, I looove their cute stamps!! And all of the CLP DT girlies was so lucky to get three of the new Christmas stamps to play with. Thank you so much for the generousity :)
I used the darling stamp named "On the way". Because of the moving, I haven't got to buy any new cardmaking stuff in a while. I really wanted to buy some matching Xmas papers and stash, but I had to use what I found in my stash that I already had. I didn't get quite pleased with the result, but WOOOW I loved to color up this image!!! :)
You have to go to the CLP blog to see what my supertalented DT companions have created - and you'll see beautiful creations from the Lili of The Valley DT too!! :)

My finished card

Well... I didn't have time to wait with the picture until the glitterglue dried... LOL

The inside of the card

"The wish is old but yet so true; a merry Christmas from me to you"

With this card I'm entering the Stamptember Blog Hop Challenge at Simon Says Stamp / Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge.

I'm not quite sure if this is going to be my last post for a while, there is SO much to do before moving...
Thank you so much for visiting my blog - and to all of you that leaves me a message: You should know that it means A LOT to me!!!

Hugs,

10 years wedding anniversary ;)

Hello there!
On the 4th of August (Barack Obamas 50th b'day!!), my husband and I had our 10th Wedding Anniversary. A fantastic flower waited for me when I got up in the morning :) And when I came home from work late Saturday evening, my hubby had made a fantastic dinner with candlelights and wine. Wow, he's so fantastic to me!!! And today we're taking our three kids to the movies to watch Cars 2. I'm looking forward to that too ;)
Well, in fact I had a card to share with you... It's my "present" to my hubby - a card with some nice words inside... Boring, maybe - but he liked it :)
I just have to tell you a short story about the laces on the card - I didn't find "the perfect lace". But suddenly I remembered that I'd just thrown away lots of old clothes, and I hadn't been to the dunghill yet. Well, I digged through it and found the perfect lace - on an old bra...!! LOL Well, I guess I couldn't have used that lace on any other cards than my hubby's... Ha ha!! ;)
The card goes to the following challenges:

* Lili of the Valley Challenge - Roses
* ABC Challenge - Auburn hair
