We're Celebrating at Pollycraft!

Happy 4th of July to all of you!  Have you been busy celebrating this holiday weekend?  Well, the celebration is continuing over at the Pollycraft Monday Challenge Blog.



Today is my first post as an official member of the Pollycraft DT!  I've used Moon Lullaby from the Little Stars collection, which is a new Pollycraft release.  I pulled out my distress inks to color this little sweetie.  It's been ages since I've colored with them and I had forgotten how much fun they can be!  I added some Glamour Dust to the stars and cut and matted my image with nestabilities.  I added some ribbon, a bow, and a few pearls to finish my card.  My sentiment is stamped on some clouds that I cut with my MFT dienamic.


OK, so here are the details you're looking for.  Our challenge this week over at the Pollycraft Monday Challenge Blog is celebrations, with the option of using stars and stripes.  Since this is a special celebration Paula is giving away the fabulous candy you see here, along with a disc of 100 images!  You can win this fantastic prize if you enter our celebrations challenge.  If you use the optional stars and stripes theme, you get a second entry!

Each DT member will also be giving away the image she used on her card this week, so be sure to visit all their blogs and leave a sweet comment for them.  Leave a comment on this post and I will draw one name to win the Little Stars - Moon Lullaby digi image.  You have until Sunday, July 10,  10:00 pm EST to leave a comment.  I will announce the winner next Monday, July 11, at 3:00 am EST in my Pollycraft post.    



Thank you so much for stopping by.
