Lucky lately!

I've been pretty lucky lately. My layout got picked over at Creating Keepsakes for "Pick of the Day", or POTD as we MBers like to call it. That was sooo cool. Such a nice surprise, because I had had such a rotten day. It was on November 2, just click here to take a peek.

Then, I won a book from CK for the Happy Hour. Can't wait to get it. I picked Ali Edwards book A Designers Eye. I want to get Life Artist, too, but it's on sale on Amazon, and I emailed the link to my hubby and told him that is what I want for Christmas. He can't complain, it's under $20.

And then, on a whim, I did a RAK from giggles45 and WON! It was an entire set of Studio G Christmas stamps! So generous of her. I must make her a Thank You card.

Here's the RAK I won:

And, here's the card I did using one of the stamps:

And, here's a close up of the circle tag. I stamped it then used black embossing powder with sparkles. That was fun to do. First time I broke out my new heat gun that I bought in September.

I've also been on a major shopping spree.... oh my! I've spent way too much money on scrapping supplies. I'm trying to justify all this by saying to myself that I do have 10 years of scrapping to catch up on! ;)
