Celebrating with Blog Candy!

There's a big celebration approaching over at CASology. To get things started a little early, we're featuring one design team member per day, starting today! I was the lucky duck who goes first! Never have liked going first for anything (unless it involves chocolate), but figured I'd better put my big girl pants on since I kind of created the challenge.  I also have some blog candy to give away to a random commenter here on Oh, Smudge!, so you'll want to leave me a comment below before tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m. to be eligible to win!

So I thought I'd share a card that represents my clean & simple cardmaking style...

I often think of my design style as being classic CAS.  I keep things as simple as possible and try to deliver the message in a creative way.  This card idea came to me when I was casually looking through some Prickley Pear sets I had on hand and noticed a stamp that was a trio of ducks.  The sentiment caught my eye and I decided to stamp the duck image, but cut the ducks apart and add one more duck to get the message across.  The green stripe is masked.

Now let's see what I have for blog candy!  How about some Mama Elephant goodness?!

I hope you'll take some time to visit the CASology blog over the next few days!  We've got a contest starting today as well as lots of blog candy and prizes throughout the week ahead, so you'll want to get in on the celebration!

Enjoy your weekend!

Cause for Celebration

I looked over at my sidebar yesterday and couldn't believe my eyes!  I've reached that wonderful milestone of 100 fabulous followers!  How did that happen?!  I'm tickled pink and am declaring it is time for a little celebration!  Blog candy, anyone?  Since I seem to have acquired a few too many crafty items (Yes, I'll admit it...), it's time I be nice and share!

Here is what I am including in the prize package:

Prima Flowers

Mulberry Paper Mini Roses

Prima Flowers with Pearl Centers

3 rolls Washi Tape

Package of Large Square Snaps

Package of Large Multi-Colored Circle Brads

Doodlebug Designs Brads (sweet treats theme)

Paper Pretties Give Thanks Stamps

Whipper Snapper Designs Snowman Stamp

Riley the Moose with Snowman Stamp

The Craft's Meow Clear Stamp Set (Western theme)

$10 Panera Gift Card...just because you might need something edible while you're crafting!



To join in the celebration and set yourself up for a chance to win, be sure and leave a comment on this post and then link up your own blog by Wednesday, December 19 at noon (CST), using the link tool below (I want to come visit you too!).  Since I'm not fond of forcing people to follow my blog, feel free to become a follower if you aren't already (I'd love to see your smiling face on my blog's sidebar!), but please don't feel obligated just for this little giveaway!  I just want people to follow along because they are truly interested in what I post each week!  I love meeting new people, so be assured I will pay you a virtual visit if I see you take the time to visit and leave a comment now and then!

I will use Random.org to select a winner!  The winner will be announced next week on Thursday, December 20.

I can't wait to send someone some happy mail, so let the party begin!!!
