Celebrate 2012!

A fun and festive challenge going

 on over at the The Shabby Tea Room!

To help us celebrate the new year

this is the inspiration photo we

were to follow!

Happy New Year!

Do you have big plans to celebrate the new year?  Whatever you do I hope you have a great time celebrating!  We are staying in and ringing in the new year in our warm cozy house.  May the new year bring in good health and happiness for you all!

Now on to my card.  I went with the bright colors in the photo.  The bright blue spoke to me.  And the red too, since one of my favorite colors is red.:-)  The card is pretty self-explanatory.  I added some dimensionals to pop out the "2012".  Colorful gems for the party theme.  And sewing to give some dimension.  I don't think I ever made a card to celebrate the new year, but it was very fun!  To make things even more fun, please stop by Melissa's blog at Keepsakes by Melissa to have a chance to win some awesome prizes...I mean AWESOME!!!  Melissa is super generous!  The chance to win is open until January 1st.

Thanks for taking a peek here today!  Have fun and stay safe while celebrating the new year!  Take care, hugs!!:-))
