Happy New Year! It seems like it's been forever since I've posted anything on my blog. The Design Teams I belong to have both been on vacation and so have I. I was in California for Christmas visiting my oldest daughter and her family. It was great seeing the grand daughters which doesn't happen often. The oldest is a Sophomore in college now and in two more years the youngest will be off to college also. They grow up so fast.
I do have a card to share with you tonight for {Pin}spirational Challenge. Here is the photo that we used for our inspiration this week.
Cute. Reminds me of Happy Feet! I loved that movie. And here is my card.
He looks like he has happy feet too and is having a very Happy Birthday!

ReplyDeleteSo adorable! I love the fun image and the fun layout! I want to participate in your challenges this year and was wondering if I just use the Pic you used for inspiration and go from there? Do I need to use specific stamps etc? This year I want to really be a participant and not just a viewer in the fun. Glad you had a great holiday and vacation with your family. It is truly the best part of the holiday spending time with our loved ones.
ReplyDeleteWould love to have you come participate in our challenges Winnie. Very easy, Yes, you just have to use the photo as your inspiration so you can use the color, the photo, any animal or bird. Whatever the photo means to you. Thank you. Happy New Year!
