PSC54: Think "Pink" for Christmas

Hi everyone and good morning. Well we have had a great time celebrating our anniversary.
Now it is time to start another year with a bang.
This week challenge is:
Use a sentiment for Christmas
The twist: Use pink on your card
Don't forget to put your sentiment on the front.
Our sponsor is Bugaboo
 
 
The winner will receive "7" free digis .... Not to shabby if you ask me !!
 
For my card I got to pick an image from our sponsor. I love this card.
It turned out so cute that I think I'm going to duplicate it for a few
friends.
 
I used Tim Holtz ink, bling and some tulle. Thanks
to Monica who was at my crop this weekend for the cute little
snowflake.
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check my sidebar for
all the other Design Team members.

My project is a  altered journal. I use these thing all the time with work and when you walk in a
meeting and sit down with this journal how many woman are going to ask
"Where did you get that Journal"
 
I put my initial on the button with stickles.
 
Here is the back of the journal
The added color along the spine I used fabric tape. Very useful just
like washi tape.
Here is a close-up of the button.

We are still celebrating !!!!

 
We will be celebrating till the end of the month so make sure you drop by our challenge blog at
The Perfect Sentiment and play along.
 
I have listed all the challenges below with the links.
You can join one or you can join them all.
There are prizes at every turn and one grand prize.
 
Day 1: Happy Birthday/Happy Anniversary
Day2: Bingo with a Sentiment
Day3: Christmas Critters
Day4: Birds & Blooms
 
 
Now get crafty and I can't see what you come up with.
You have a chance at winning this fabulous Grand Prize Package for those of you that complete all four of the challenges separately. Remember, no combining of our challenges for this celebration.

This Prize Package is provided by Sarah from her Etsy Store My Little Somethings


Prize includes:
A total of 22 yards of vintage lace- various colors and widths wrapped on vintage textile spools, bobbins and a clothespin. These are all items available in my Etsy shop.
Crafting tin filled with over 100 vintage/ retro buttons
7 vintage and Victorian era rhinestone buttons
Total retail value: over $45.00

Please Note:
Regretfully, if you are a prize winner who lives outside of the United States, we will have to substitute your prize with a digital prize. By the time we have to do the customs paperwork and everything associated with sending parcels out of the United States, it always costs more than what the prize is worth in most cases, and this includes Canada, unless you have a Post Office Box in the United States. APO and PPO box addresses are considered US. Thanks for your understanding.
