Something different for The Friday Mashup

Happy Friday!

Can you believe that in a week, Christmas will be over?! I know, I know... what a way to think about it. But, I have a week of holidays starting the week of New Years and I'm SO looking forward to it. Christmas will be over, and I get to stay home for an entire week playing with my kids and their new toys! :D ... And I'm sure I'll be playing with a few of my new toys too!

Speaking of new toys... this card is FULL of new things. Actually, almost everything is new, so soak it up. I'll be starting my week long Sneak Peek next Friday, with a super fun finale on January 3rd, so be sure to check back!


The challenge this week at The Friday Mashup is a great colour combo and the added awesomeness of glimmer/shimmer/bling.

I've never incorporated a photo into a card before, but I'm super happy with how it turned out. Would make a good card to send to the grandparents.

Check out the challenge this week:



  1. Create a project using the colors "Real Red, Gumball Green, Bermuda Bay & Crumb Cake."
  2. Create a project with some "Glimmer/Shimmer/Bling. "
  3. Or Mash it Up and create a project "Real Red, Gumball Green, Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake & Glimmer."

Believe it or not, I'm actually entering into a challenge today too! I'm so excited. I've been wanting to play along with Freshly Made Sketches again for a long time, but I just kept missing the deadline. But today is the day!! Yay!

Check out the sketch from them this week:


Thanks for stopping by today!
