Second....we are kicking off our next challenge at Guylou's Inimitability!

And the theme came from our most beloved Tracy...

Punches, Dies and Diamonds Oh My!

So your project must include the use of a punch, a die and some diamonds!

Here is mine:

I used Serena and her laptop...

the frame was one I had in my closet gathering dust!

I used thick chipboard and painted it with chalk board paint.

The punch was a Martha Stewart border punch...you can see at the top and bottom

and the die was a banner die that is across the top with the name "TORI" on the banners.

Of course you can see the strip of diamonds going down the sides!

I made this for a friends daughter who just had her first communion!

The challenge will last until the 17th of May!

Make sure you go to the challenge blog and check it all out!

And last but certainly not least

we have a new DT!

Her name is Carla and we are so thrilled to have her join our little family!

Welcome Carla!

Guylou's Inimitability Christmas Blog Hop!

Good Morning!

Hopefully you came here from the lovely and talented Trina's blog,

if not, make sure you go back to the begining and work your way through!

The entire list will be at the end of the post!

There is a lot going on today and you do not want to miss anything!

It is with the greatest of pleasure that I introduce our newest DT member:

CHANA

We are all excited to have Chana join us and cannot wait

to see what creations she has in store for us!

We have a lot of fun surprizes going on:

First, one random person from each blog will receive the image they are showcasing.

I chose Dorothy Puts Star On The Tree!

I cut the image out and added some sparkle! Can't see that in the picture though!

Second just for participating Guylou is giving away the Wreath image (which is actually 2 images)

Isn't she just the bomb! One blog hop, so many freebies!

Those you will find on the challenge site!

And third we are having a secret phrase game!

Hopefully you have been writing them down from the begining.

You need to have the correct phrase and have commented on each blog

in order to go into the drawing, 2 people will be randomly selected to win!

And get this, the grand prize is a $25.00 gift certificate to GI

and the second prize is a $15.00 gift certificate to GI!

You want to email the answer to Guylou at info@guylousinimitability.com
