Wow - January 1st - and it's Sweet Stampin' time again .......

Good morning revellers.  Here's wishing everybody, a Happy, Healthy, and above all, Peaceful 2011.

It is Sweet Stampin' time again, and we have chosen to ask you to illustrate  Your Favourite Song.   What I have illustrated is not my favourite song, but one I really like.  In fact, I was a bit stumped as to how I could represent my favourite song - Your Song - without a picture of Elton John in it.  So I have chosen Lady in Red.




I have used a lovely Lili of the Valley image, coloured her with Copics, and gilded her wings with Diamond Stickles.  The papers are Bearly Mine.  The fab flowers and red glass sprigg  are from WOC.





Do pop along to Sweet Stampin' to have a look at all work from the other teamies, and have a go at our challenge. 

Our Sponsor for the Month is Whimsy Stamps, and for this week Tiffany Doodles, and both companies are offering 5 digital images to the winners.

I am entering this for the following challenges:

Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Sparkle and Shine
Catch the Bug - Anything goes
Craft Your Days Away - Die cuts or punches
Crafty Emma - Anything goes
Copic Creations - Sparkle
Phindy's Place Challenge - Give thanks - I hope this counts as I tend not to put words on my cards
Southern Girls - Anything goes
Stamp Insanity - Sparkle
Craft your Passion - Red, Green and Cream
Woodware USA - Anything goes


I really appreciate it that you take the time to look at my blog and leave such lovely comments. Thank you each and every one of you.
