Happy Thursday, everyone!! It's almost the weekend!! Do you have any fun plans?? I hope to get some yard/garden work done, flowers planted... Also, I have to apologize. I follow quite a few blogs through email and I'm getting some, but not all of the notifications when a new post is up. My auto-post is finally working again and now this happens :( Blogger has been so frustrating lately. On that note, if you don't have the option of following your blog by email, its such a great feature to have...you can add it as a gadget on your sidebar and then your followers will know when you post...assuming it works!!
Before I announce winners for two giveaways, I have a card to enter into the Little Scrap Pieces - Use a Bow challenge :)
All of the paper is My Mind's Eye. The base of the card is a Spellbinders Grand Label 23. The second layer is a Label 20, embossed with the Cuttlebug Forest Branches embossing folder, inked with Walnut Distress ink, as are all of the edges. The next layer is a Label 2. I created a double-bow, thanks to my dear friend, Sherrie of Sherrie Scraps With Passion!! Sherrie posted an awesome tutorial (view it HERE) on how she makes her bows, which I have loved forever!!
The top elements, the box, bird, branch, crown and banner are from Spellbinders Shapeabilities Mix'd Media Elements. I inked the bird and banner with Spun Sugar Distress Ink, the branch and edges with Walnut.
Dream is from K Andrew Designs Winged Things stamp set. I taped over the "s". Click HERE to purchase your own set!!

My sweet friend, this is exquisite! The layers are so gorgeous, bursting with such delicacy. (Which you would think is contradictory, but with you it's just perfection.) I love the varied patterns, textures, and of course the sweet crowned birdie. And the ribbon! It's incredible! I can't wait to follow her tutorial this weekend, too. Yours is stunning my friend. Fantastic work on your newest masterpiece. :o) (And I will gladly wallop Blogger for you now.) Congratulations to the winners, too! :o)

Congrats to th winners, I know they will enjoy their goodies.. And your card is so beautiful Lisa, love how you add all the layers, and all the little extra details finish it off perfectly. Hugs
Beautiful card...love the shabby chic-ness! I just love My Mind's Eye paper lines and don't own a single piece... think I need to fix that!!! Wanted to see how you were doing, and it looks like you have been very busy! When you don't visit very often the thing is you get to see a whole lot of sweetness all at once! How come I always just miss you and Susan's Giveaway's by just a little bit??? Take care my friend!

Hi Lisa,
Another beautiful card. I love your double bow.
FYI, thanks for responding to my questions about what dies you recommend. I orderder several of the ones you suggested as Joann's had them on sale. If you don't mind, another question, will the mega and grand dies work with the cuttlebug??
