Good Morning & Happy New Year's Eve Everyone!

I do hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with your families/friends.  Mine was awesome as my son came home to spend Christmas with us.  It was very nice having him around & hanging out with him....was very bittersweet taking him to the airport though.  I'll be counting the days until I get to see him again!!!

I have a double duty card to share with you today.  First up is the ABC Challenge--New Year Sparkle!  We're challenging you to make a card using things that are shiny & sparkly for the New Year!  I used dazzling diamonds glitter all over those trees along with brushed silver card stock & added some rhinestones to complete my simple design.  Check out our blog to see the rest of the gorgeous designs & after you've been inspired; you'll have until Sunday; January 6, 2013 @ noon EST to post your creations here.  Have fun & I can't wait to see your wonderful works of art!!!!

As I said earlier; my card is also for the Crafters of Faith Blog Hop.  It's the last day of the month so that means it's time for another Crafters of Faith creation!  We were asked to create a card/project using a snowy-winter theme reflecting  the beauty of the season & include bling/glitter to ring in the joy of what will be.  ENJOY & check out the rest of the girls' blogs to see their awesome work!  They're listed on the left side of my blog!

I'm also entering this in the following challenges:

Thanks so much for stopping by & I do hope you all have SAFE New Year's celebrations!  
Until Next Time,
Hugs & Love,
