Thank Heavens for Challenges!

AG Verse1

Usually I cannot wait for all the different challenge days. I rush home from work for TMTA, Artygirlz, Wednesday Stamper, Theme Thursday, TGiF ... then on the weekend I look forward to SAWO and Sunday Stamper! Of late I just have n't had the time. And I do like to complete the challenges on the day they are set ... so I have missed a few!

AG Verse As it turns out that was a good thing this week. I wanted to put the finishing touches to my fancy fold card thingy today and was a bit short for inspiration!

I started to mope about, drank a coffee, flicked the channels ... you know the sort of thing ... then I started blog hopping and low and behold the Artygirlz theme this week of a verse or quote helped me out with the front panel for my card! AG verse2

Then Wednesday Stamper helped me out on the  side panels ... the theme being snowflake kisses! You need to look hard for the snow flakes ... but I promise they are there.

Shout at me via email if you want to know where the stamps are from .... most of them are from the Legend T!m Holtz!

I know I was supposed to be keeping the final fancy foldy thingy a secret ... but hey ... you all know that my photos don't actually resemble anything I have made anyway so that is cool! :0)
