Guest Designer for Little Miss Muffett

     I'm so happy to be a Guest Designer for Little Miss Muffet during this challenge, which has a theme of "Something New."  :-D  I was so excited when Barbara sent me the invite and I'm loving the digis over there!  The one on this card is 'Adela and Dida', and was perfect for the idea of a new puppy.  That must have been inspired by meeting the new Brittany puppy, Samantha, now living with my California grandkids.  What a wonderful, loving, cuddly pup she is!


     Isn't that the most precious image ever?  She's colored with Touch Twin markers and her wings are done with Creative Inspirations silver paint (though the shimmery sparkle of them just doesn't show in the photo -- sorry.)   Aside from the theme of a new puppy, I have dp on my card which is brand new from SU, and the silver-heart ribbon I used for the bow is new from Santa.  The image is new to me but not really new, as in not a new release.   The flowers have been in my stash forever, as has the black CS which I used to mat the image, and the deep purple ribbon on the side.  Jellypark Friends wants us to use something old and something new on our projects this week.

     For a single touch of bling, I added the rhinestone to the largest flower before adding all three flowers to the card.  The sentiment is printed from my computer, fussy cut, and then matted with black CS.

     Challenges for this card:
Crafting for all Seasons -  Fairies
Craft Us Crazy --  I chose the "Anything New" part
Delicious Doodles -- Anything Goes
Fabulous Friday at Frosted Designs -- Something New
Fairy Fun Friday -- Things with sparkly wings
Fashionista Friday - Use up stash (flowers)
Flutterby Wednesday - Open (must use butterfly, fairy or angel)
Glitter Geeks -- Brand Spanking New
Stampin' for the Weekend -- Anything Goes

     Hope your first week of the New Year is going well for you and that you're finding time to relax after the bustle of the holidays.  May you find something creative coloring your world, and Happy Stamping.  NanaConnie
