STAMP MAN AWARD!! FOR 2009 TO SUPPORT 2010!!
OKAY I KNOW WE WERE ONLY SUPPOSED TO PICK ONE!!!YEAH RIGHT!
This is one ofthe cards that I entered to the "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge Blog for a spot on the DT! So it is one that I really just love and is in my office framed. Yup! Framed. We have a sketch challenge this week that is very similar to this!!

Then there is Halie the Horse. She is one of my favorite digis and I won a challenge award with her!
This is Dante the Drummer! He is very special to me because he reminds me of my son when he was a little boy! Looked just like him and is still playing the drums to this day and is very involved in music. So Dante, even though I did not win, is SUPER SPECIAL to me!
I would have to say that the card I made for my Dad's B-day is very cool and special too! It will be out on next weeks "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge!
HUGS
and
THANK YOU FOR THE AWARD! MR. STAMP MAN!! HOP ON OVER AND GET YOURS!!

"SWEET STAMPIN" CHALLENGE #6 "TURN N' BURN!!!"
I'm TURN N' BURN'N for this weeks "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge #6 Sketch!
Christmas is over, it was a blast. Being with family is always a blessing!!! The kids always love Christmas.
We got home super duper late last night and I woke up today at 12:30, which I never do! UGH! I am usually up at dawn, trying to be quiet for the rest of the house. LOL! I wasn't even out of bed and I was running to my computer yelling, C**P! I have to post and tell all my friends about the new "SWEETSTAMPIN" challenge!!!!
My hubby loves my work but thinks I am crafting crazy!! LOLOLOL!!
Now on to New Years and another sketch at "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge Blog!!
By now everyone should have figured out that I am the cowgirl type! I love and have horses, I am a huge Barrel Racer and horses have been in my life as long as I can remember. I am unable to ride at this time and I am so eager to run run run around the barrels and arena, so I decided that I was going to share a barrel run with all of you and....... waaaaalaaaaaaaaaaaaah a Barrel Racing card to share with everyone for this weeks "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge!
This rider is "TURN N' BURN'N" up the barrels. For those that don't know ~ Turn N' Burn is the expression we use to run as fast as we can to get a good time around the barrels. It sort of means burn up the arena with your speed! LOL!

This is the sketch for this weeks challenge! We were so blessed to have had so many wonderful entires this past week! It is very awesome that it was Christmas week and we had more challenge entries than we have ever had so far! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR VISITING AND ENTERING THE WEEKLY CHALLENGE AROUND YOUR BUSY SCHEDULES! I know I loved all of the entires and from the feed back it sounds like all of the DTs did!! WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!
This week is a nice sketch! Just follow and create from the sketch!!! Hop on over to "SWEETSTAMPIN" Challenge Blog and attach your entry!!! So SUPER FUN!!
This is the sketch:

As you can see this is a nice fun sketch!!! This challenge will be open until
