Hello Friend!

Happy Thursday, everyone! I have the BEST followers/friends in all of blogland! You guys are simply amazing! Thank you so much for all of your well wishes on my new endeavor as a design team member for Getting Cricky! I can't tell you how much your support means to me :)
I made a quick card to enter into the challenge this week at Cooking With Cricut - S'mores. Yum! And More than Favors Wacky Wednesday #47 - Friendship. (Thanks Melissa!!)

For this card I cut the raccoon and squirrel from Create a critter at 3". The fire is from Campout and the marshmallow is from Campin Critters. I added a zig-zag of glue and then covered it with white glitter to make it sparkle. The s'more in the squirrel's hand is handmade and I even added an extra bar of chocolate :) I used two of my awesome K Andrew stamps for this project. Kristal donates a portion of the proceeds from every stamp set sold to charity - great stamps, great cause! You can purchase her stamps with pride, knowing you are doing something good for those in need. And you will LOVE the stamps...so many great sentiments that are fun and versatile! Click HERE to purchase your own set!

    Super Cute card! Hey I saw you said you don't have an Archivers store in by you. I went to one I think in the Beach Grove area when I was visiting so they do have them in the state maybe even closer to you:)

    Nothing says friendship like sweet critters and equally sweet confections! :o) This is so adorable, Lisa! I love the extra dose of love (aka chocolate) that he's munching on and the embossing is stunning on that bright green! (one of my fave Core'dinations shades! Instant limey smiles.) It's fabulous how you made the animal friends become part of the shape on the sides... it just makes it extra special. Beautiful work, my crafty friend! You're amazing! :o)

    Hugs and blessings! :o)
