Simply Sunday Challenge - It's A Celebration!

Happy New Year, everyone!! Wow, 2012!! How is that possible?? I can't believe how fast time flies!! It's time for another fun Simply Sunday Challenge at Getting Cricky! The theme this week is in honor of the new year..."It's A Celebration"! We want to see your projects that celebrate something, whether it be the new year, a new job, your family...anything at all that you want to celebrate!!

For my project today, I am celebrating a friendship that has lasted over 25 years!! I used My Mind's Eye paper and the Cuttlebug Clockworks embossing folder. The large clock is a Tim Holtz die and I used Tim Holtz kraft resist paper (thank you again, Sabrina!!) and inked the edges with walnut Distress Ink. The edge of the black and white paper was punched with a EK Success punch and I added crystals. Forever Friends is from the Phrases cart and attached with foam tape. The tag is a Spellbinders Nestabilities die, also attached with foam and I inked the edges, as well as the edges of the paper with walnut Distress Ink. "My life is so much better with you in it" is from the Positive Thoughts stamp set!

This was one of Kristal's very first stamp sets and still one of my favorites! To purchase this set or to see the entire line of K Andrew Design stamps, click on the picture below:
