Well a week has gone by and I've made no cards! Yikes! Between sick kids, sick mommy and general holiday season craziness, I just haven't had time to stamp. And, I don't see that changing too much between now and the end of the year. So... I've decided to go on a little From Courtney's Closet vacation. I'll be back after the first of the year with fun new cards inspired by Courtney's outfits - and hopefully with some cute *new* outfits after spending Christmas with Grammy and Great Gramma, who can't resist buying new clothes for their sweet grandbaby! If you're not sure what I'm talking about - you can view past challenges here and get excited about joining us after the holidays!! And please don't give up completely on my blog the rest of the month, I will be posting other cards!!! :-DLast week I dug into the archives and posted this photo of my sweet boy. A few of my wonderful stamping friends took time out of their holiday weekend and Black Friday madness to play along. First up is my good blogging friend Sue, who made another "quick" card using some perfect paper from her scrap bin. Sooooo cute!
Sue's neice Katie played along too, yay! So cute! I love that she added other animals in addition to the sweet elephant, and her layout is super fun!
Anita's daughter Katie made this cutie! I'm a lucky duck to have Katie joining my challenge nearly every week!
But my favorite this week is Sharon, because she buttered me up by choosing polka dots over stripes (that paper is soooo cute), her elephant image is just too cute, AND she started a brand new blog so we need to give her some love! :-) Sharon, email me your address at stampinlibby at gmail dot com, and I'll send a little something your way.
Thanks ladies for playing along, I know it was a hectic week to squeeze it in. And thanks to the rest of you for stopping by today! I look forward to sharing more cards inspired by Courtney's outfits after the first of the year. :-)

ReplyDeleteGreat cards from your "friends" again. I am happy you are coming back with the Courtney's closet after the first of year! I LOVE it and just haven't been able to play due to the reason you mentioned...all the Holiday "scrambling" I still need to shop...have done some, but ye-gads, I have 13 grandchildren...5 are 2 1/2 and under! I'll be back, but I will see everything you do new, as I subscribe to your blog..yeah! www.nelliesnest.blogspot.com
