A Release Party Hangover that is! I wish I had one because then I'd be home today instead of at work. Blah! Last night was another hilarious event and thank all my SCS girls who popped in to say hi and hang out with me! I love having friends like you! :D I hope you all used your coupon code on any stamps you bought last night! And remember, you can use this code until the end of the month. Isn't that sweet? I have lots of things to tell you about today so bear with me ok?

First up is my card for today. The only set that was released last night that I didn't show you during the week was the half set of creepy crawlies called 'Backyard Dwellers'. It works really well with the 'I Love My Garden' set because the critters are at the perfect scale for the flowers in that set.

The layout is one of Taylor Van Bruggen's Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenges (TECC46). All the deets are at the bottom of the post as per normal.

Challenge ALERT!

Marie, the owner of The Greeting Farm (AKA Pink Poison) has put out a challenge to all her customers. It's an Anya Fashion Show! All the deets are on her blog, so if you have any Anya's I highly suggest you play along because you should see the PRIZES!! Holy cow! I want that Miss Anya set soooo badly! :D I plan on creating at least one card!

Blog Candy ALERT!

Yesterday I adopted two monsters. No, not kids, monstahs!! Victoria Case draws and creates these super ADORABLE monster rubber stamps that I've been eyeing for a while now and today on her blog she is giving away three stamps and a bunch of valentine embellishments!! So head over there, check out her cute stamps, leave some love and tell everyone else about them!

Last but not least, I've been given a blog award this week from my sweet and darling friend Carolyn (AKA Aunt Carol on SCS) of PMS, etc fame! (I'm so glad you're back in blogland again!)

I'm so flattered, flabbergasted and now I'm even fabulous! hahaha! Well, maybe just my blog....but I'm taking ownership of it! Thank you Carolyn!! If you haven't popped over to Carolyn's blog I suggest you high-tail it over there now because she makes the most detailed and embellished cards you have ever laid your eyes on!

The rules are simple: Paid hommage to whom you receive the award from, pay it forward to five other fabulous bloggers, link back to who gave you the award and to the people you are passing it onto and tell them about it. The twist is to name 5 things that you're addicted to.......just 5?! Well, alright then....

1. Patterned paper

2. Quakes Rice Snacks - cheddar flavor

3. Edward Cullen.....*sigh*

4. Trace Atkin's voice

5. My IPOD Touch (Best thing since sliced bread!)

I'm paying this award forward to these FABULOUS blogs...
