Good news to share! Did you see the badge to the left? I won a Thursday challenge at MelJen's and this precious little snowboy is one of the images I chose. Isn't he a darling?
The next piece of good news comes via a helpful blogging friend (my newest best friend) Cec! When I entered a challenge at Phindy's Place, I mentioned having trouble with my ink smearing when I printed digi images. She told me about a brand of paper that gets rid of that problem -- XPEDX P&G Cover - Cut, 80 lb., 28.77M, Bright White, Smooth, 81/2 x 11 (250 sheets per pack), Part #527558. Thought I had found a place fairly close that sold this paper but when I got there, they were not there! So, Plan B -- I ordered online. Received my paper today, printed out this image and when I colored with pencils and baby oil I did not experience one single, solitary smear! How happy am I?????? Thanks a bunch, Cec!
Made this card for the following challenges:
MelJen's -- cold and snowy -- Well, rats, my first piece of not so good news -- paper came a day too late to enter this challenge! But click on the link to go to the current challenge! (Move It, Move It!)
ABC Christmas -- A is for Anything Christmas
I also won a surprise candy from the ABC Christmas blog hop at the end of the year -- I'm feeling quite lucky!! Guess I'll just have to wait to find out what it is but it doesn't take too much of a stamping surprise to make me happy!
