Studio Calico week Day 7

By the way - if  you've been following the saga of the week on Facebook...I have power back! Wahoo! It came on yesterday about 5:30. My poor lil furnace has been cranking as hard as it could to warm me up and I couldn't be more grateful!

Congratulations! You made it walking through a week with a Studio Calico Kit with me! :) So of course today's card....is a congrats one!

The floral paper is by Jenny Bowlin...wood veneer letters again, chipboard stickers...this one was kind of funny in how it came about. No sketch, but I started by creating the green strip to set off the red prize ribbon. I cut the black strip for the sentiment, and laid out the letters before adhering them, all fit just fine...but once I put the strip on the card, I thought *bing!* let me use the winner winner sticker as the O! I no sooner had it stuck down than I realized....the rest of the word wasn't going to FIT with a big O! Aggggghhh! Had to peel that back off, and luckily didn't destroy much in the process :)

I hope you enjoyed the week as much as I did...and maybe you have a sense for why I love my SC kits so much. It's possible I love it extramuch after months of working with the 1000 card kits for CHA next week, but since I loved them before the travails of kitting cards, I think it's a love I come by honestly :)

Have other products you want me to highlight for a week? Let me know....and if I can get the companies to donate some of the goodies, I'll see what I can show off for you. I'd love to know what YOU want to learn how to use, so I can partner with them and get some toys in front of ya!

REMINDERS!

Today's the last day for the older (cheaper) pricing at the Post Office. Got a box ready to go? Run to the PO this morning!
