Sending a huge thanks to Ardyth at MASKerade for nominating me for a Liebster Award. What a wonderful surprise I found when checking my blog while I was out of town for the weekend. I am still trying to catch up after being gone.
This award is given to up-and-coming bloggers who inspire you and have less than 200 followers. The Liebster award takes its name from the German word meaning "Beloved, Dearest or Favourite".
Once nominated, you then:
Acknowledge the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them.
Give the award to 5 other bloggers, who have less than 200 followers and let them know through a comment on their blog.
Post the award on your blog.
My five nominees ~
Suzanne at Beauty and Blessings
Marybeth at Marybeth's Time For Paper
Tracey at In My Creative Opinion
Ally at Laughadaisy
Leigh at to the full
Please take a moment to stop by their blogs and admire their beautiful work. They all use Papertrey products, which I absolutely love.
As I said recently I have become addicted to challenges, so I cannot have a post without a card challenge. For this one I am combining two ~ this week's "recipe" at Less is More and the color splash challenge at The Play Date Cafe.
The challenge at Less is More ~
This week we're giving you the chance once more to combine themes and
Take Three Challenges
For this challenge we'd like you to choose any three of our past
challenges and combine the criteria from them on your card. There's a
list of all of our past challenges in the page at the top of our blog.
When writing your post about your submission, we'd like you to identify
the three challenges, with week numbers, that you have included in
making your card. There's also a page with past sketches should you wish
to include one of those in your creation.
We have done this once before and it was great fun, so we hope you'll enjoy it again.
The colors at Play Date Cafe ~
For this challenge, you MUST use...
Black...White...and a 'splash' of Brown
