Ringing In The New Year!

Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday, I know I did! Being Tuesday it is time for another wonderful challenge over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations. This week the fun theme we have for you is NEW YEARS! I am sure you are all looking forward to a happy and healthy new year. So why not start it off with some fun and play along with us!

The image that I used is a Dustin Pike design. I just love his images (I own a lot of them). I love this little mouse and knew I could work him into a New Year's card. It took me about 5 tries before I had a card I liked. I ended up making the back round squares because none of my DP seemed festive enough for a New Year's card. After I made the designs I went over them with glitter pens to add some extra sparkle to it! I also pulled out my colored glitter for the bell, it has been ages since I used colored glitter, I just use my Stickles for color usually.

The ladies really did some fabulous cards to inspire you this week, be sure to check them out. We also are saying good-bye to two of the ladies, Kristine and Lorie. We will miss you both very much and wish you all the best.
