Sparkle, Glitter and Bling!!

....Sparkle, Glitter and Bling....three of my favorite things!  If you were to ask me what my favorite embellishment is, it would be BLING, in any form and its' something I use on almost ALL my cards.   I was thrilled to find out that this is the theme for this week's challenge over at the  Meljen Designs Challenge Blog. And I knew right away I could not pass it up!!   I am a little late and missed it when it first came out, but I'm happy that I found it today and had time to get a card in.  With all the coloring that I did this weekend, I had colored quite a few of Melissa's wonderful images to have ready for cards, which made it easy to put a cute card together!

  This is the card I created for the challenge.

   I also wanted to take the opportunity to THANK Melissa, for all the wonderful images that she creates and more importantly for all the Fabulous Freebies that she share with us all.   You ROCK!!   If you are a fan, like me, then you know that Monday is Freebie day and if you visit today there is a wonderful new Friendship Sentiment that I LOVE.  Here is a link to the blog and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do.  I would LOVE for my friends to take part in some of the challenges and I know many of you have already been buying her wonderful digi images.  Once you try one, you'll love them and want to visit the store, which you can find it HERE!!

   I'm off now to work on my next card with is a Birthday card for my Sister-In-Law, Pam.  And following that I'm working on a card for DH for Father's Day.  

   Crafts really make me happy and now that I have had some down time, I'm realizing that this is truly my passion and I LOVE making cards!!  WOOHOO!!
