"Sugar and spice and everything nice"

We are having another blog hop at Clear Dollar Stamps...this month's theme is "Sugar and spice and everything nice, That's what little girls are made of"...I wanted to use this beautiful flower garden set that was just released on Wednesday...It comes with three different coloured flowers...I chose to use the purple flowers because I've been in a purple mood lately...Purple is a colour that doesn't get used a lot in the scrapbooking/cardmaking world! But I was channeling my grandmother I guess...her favorite colour was purple (she passed away almost 4 years ago now)...my daughter and I were having a discussion and she said her favorite colour was purple! So I guess it was in my brain to use purple!


Anyways, this is a sad blog hop for me...because this is my last one for now with CDS...I have stepped down from the team...I didn't want to...I had to think long and hard about it...but in the end, life just takes priority over my creating time and I just wasn't working up to my standards and I didn't want my teammates to have to pick up my slack...it just seems like these next couple months are SO busy...and I just won't have as much creative time as I'd like. So, with a saddened heart, I had to email Lori and Laurie and tell them the not-so-nice news...but don't fret! I will be creating MANY more cards and projects with the WONDERFUL images that I've been given during my time at CDS! I was so happy to work with the crew at CDS....they are a creative and friendly and caring bunch of ladies! And might I add VERY talented! 

Okay, so back to the hop...you wanna know about the PRIZES! Two lucky winners will each receive a $10 gift certificate for the CDS store for purchase of clear or digital stamps ONLY.  The winners will be randomly chosen from comments received on two DT member blogs. Winners will be announced on the CDS blog Wednesday, June 22nd. 

Here is your hopping list:

CDS Release Day

 It's release day at Clear Dollar Stamps today! I got the Vegetable Garden B&W version...so I coloured this myself! I love these vegetable images...Laurie did an amazing job on these. There is also the coloured version for those that don't have time/can't colour them...I love the pre-coloured images too. They are SO handy for quick cards!

I also had the Patriotic Charlie set...I used it for my CIC Challenge this month!



There are many more sets released...you should pop over to the CDS Store and check 'em out! See what the rest of the DT has created too!

Thanks for visiting!

Release Day today!

I do admit...I'm not a Twilight fan...honestly, I've never read the books...I've never seen the movies...I know the gist of them...but I've never seen them. I'm not on "Team Jacob" or "Team Edward"...my niece was a big Twilight fan (I'm not sure if she still is)...but Lindsay did an AMAZING job with this release. I think they look pretty accurate!



I'm donating this set for the Ovarian Cancer Canada Gala next Saturday in Barrie. I hope there are still some Twilight fans out there! (Is that phase over?) I'm still waiting for the books to come out on CD. I won't read them otherwise! (I don't have that kinda time! Have you SEEN how thick they are!?)


Check out the Sassy Studio Designs blog for the complete list of the Design Team so you can see their creations. And we'll be chatting on the party blog later on tonight (see details on the SSD Blog).
