GSF Blog Hop – Meant to Be

Hello, Hello!

I know, it’s not the first Friday of the month when we usually do the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop, but who was going to be up and attm on New Year’s Day to hop through…so, we chose to do the 2nd Friday this month. I’m sure all the demonstrators just needed a little break as well…I know I did! If you came from Amanda’s blog, Thank You for continuing to hop along! There are many more to go, so keep on hopping after you check out my card!

Sale-A-Bration has begun and the new Spring Mini catalog is out! If you don’t have one and want one, pleases comment “Catalog” below and I will be sure to get one in your hot little hands! I am using a stamp set from the new Mini called Snailed It stamp set and dies bundle. How cute is that?! AND, I made my first slimline card for a challenge! Yep, I am finally getting on the new bandwagon and I am in love! You will be seeing more of these! They are fun and I need to play some more with this size.

Today I have actually been inspired by 2 blog challenges…one for colors and one for the sketch.

So with that being said…here is my first slimline card using the ingredients I have listed below. I even grabbed a business envelope from the computer room upstairs and stamped the back flap. Fun and simple…no complaints there! Let me know what you think in the comments. Did I ‘snail it?’ 😉 I like it, but I need more practice to really ‘snail it!’ 🙂

That’s it for me today! Now it is time for you to hop on over to Rachel’s blog and see what she created for you!
