Hi! I am Chris, also known as Glowbug on Splitcoaststampers. I live in Appomattox, VA. I so much enjoy blogging and the so many good friendships that have formed as a result. During my free time, I am creating cards or projects and I so enjoy Challenges. I have a very supportive husband, Scott, who understands my addiction and two young daughters,Meghan, 9 and Nicki, 12 years of age, who can't wait to get their hands on my stamps and embellishments. I was an elementary school teacher until my youngest was born. I have now been blessed with the opportunity to teach my two girls at home. I use stamping as a hobby or way to escape.

Hi All! Since it is the first Thursday of the month...Lori from the Divine Diva has sent me this photo for the Inspiration Challenge this week:


Here is my take on the challenge. I was inspired by the middle plate in the middle of the flower. I used the Friends 24-7 stamp set to create my card. This card is also for the Queen for the Day Challenge. This week's Queen is Pat Smethers. You have to go look at her gallery, it is AMAZING. I chose to case this card: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...p;ppuser=76845 I changed the colors,, embossing folder, added ribbon and used the Lattice Die to frame my image. I also incorporated the Stampin Sister's in Christ Challenge to use Paper tole and dimension to your creation.

Today is one year since the Divine Diva Inspiration challenge began and I became a part of this team. Anyone who participates in the challenge this week and leaves a direct link to Lori's blog here, will have a chance to win a prize that is being offered my Lori herself.

For more inspiration for this challenge please visit my dt sisters:

Happy Wednesday everyone!! Today is a busy day here in blog land with lots of fun to be had. Since it is Wednesday it is time for another Flutter By Wednesday challenge. This week's challenge is a color challenge, to use blue green and white on your card or project and a fairy, butterfly or angel.




Since it also the day that Wags n Whiskers is doing their sneak peaks, I combined the sneak peak with Flutter by Wednesday's challenge. This months releases are super fun and are of a sports theme.We are so excited about our new release on Friday and at last today we can share the images with you ! The images are illustrated by the super talented Cris De Lara! For my creation, I used the adorable Tiny Dancer image that is to be released on Friday (when we have our fun blog hop!!!). Isn't she precious!!


My layout uses the Friday Sketch. I colored her with water colors and popped her up on dimensionals. The dp is some yummy paper I just bought from Michael's called Anna Griffin Isabelle collection. The green pearls on the corners are from Basic Grey and are on sale for 25% off in Lacey's Stamp and create store this week (Lacey extended her 25 % off sale on all buttons, brads, and bling through Sunday April 4! You don't want to miss that!!)
