Good Morning To All. . . I hope you are having a bright eyed and bushy tailed morning on this last day of the 2010 year.   The years are moving a little to fast it's a little scary, where did they all go.  Oh well, let's move on here.  Today I have a card to share using one of Julee's sketches over on the Verve network.  I love doing sketches but the hardest thing for me is to find the right stamp set.  This time was no different but the Awash With Flowers just popped out at me and I think it worked pretty well, don't you.  Supply list below:

I hope you had a chance to go over my Reminder's List or what I refer to as my Stampin' Up Buzz.  The Holiday Mini  only has just a few days left.  You must place your order on or before Jan 3rd, so you don't miss out on any of your favorites.  You're gonna love the Occasion Mini.  It is full of great images and accessories that help us look forward to sunnier days.  I can live with the cold as long as we have sunshine.  Sunshine makes me happy.  If you missed yesterday's post click here to view all the Stampin' Up Buzz on what's new and coming soon.  All I have to say is Sale A Bration  WooHoo!!!!!!!
