For this hop, Heather is debuting her new Cherished Wings line of clear stamps! Yay! Who doesn't love clear stamps, right?!

Maybe - But you have to be in it to win it - so make sure you hop along with us and leave us all comments along the way! You have until Midnight Feb 8th GMT, to hope along and be in it to win it!
Remember, if you get lost along the way, return to the Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog, to get back on track - You will find the full blog hop list, there!
You should have landed here, from hopping over from Manderly's blog.
While you're here, be sure you leave me some love by leaving me a comment on my card and the new Gabriella Cherished Angel clear stamp. One lucky person who comments on my blog during the hop, will win a digi image of thier choice, from the Lacy Sunshine store! Yay! The same goes for all the other blogs in the hop, so be sure you comment on all of them for multiple chances to win.

Before you go, let me show you my card and tell you all about it:
My card uses the image, Gabriella, from the new Cherished Wings line, by Lacy Sunshine, colored with Promarkers. Her wings are sparkly and shiny, from the addition of glitter. I used gray cardstock for my base and for matting, to help bring out the grey in my papers. All papers are by Recollections and are from my stash. My card layout uses the sketch at Sketch N Stash. I've used this lovely ivory colored sheer ribbon, accented with a handmade bow, using the same ribbon. I used some new paper flowers by the Paper Studio, to accent the top right corner of the image. The greenery around the flowers has been punched with the branch punch from Martha Stewart. Pink gemstones were used for the flower centers. I used some brand new pink gemstones to accent the card.

Wow, I can't tell you how much easier distressing is, with this little baby!

After distressing my papers, the edges were inked with distressing ink pads. The image is colored with Promarkers. The papers are all scraps from my scrap box. (Gotta love scraps!) The flowers are from my stash, and branches punched with the branch punch by Martha Stewart. The butterfly is also from my stash. Sentiment is by Sentiments 4 You.

It's A New Release Hop at Dude Time Doodles
I hope you're here to join us for this fun hop while we showcase these fabulous new images! Be prepared for some eye candy to knock your socks off!
If you came to me from NanaConnie, you are on the right track! If not, I suggest you start at the Dude Time Doodles blog.
Of course, I have the complete hop list for you, below, in case you get lost along the way.
Be sure you leave comments on all the stops along the way, because one of us is the Mystery Hostess! That means one winner will be drawn from the comments on the blog of the mystery hostess, and that person is going to be the blog hop winner! So, leave some lovin' at every stop along the way! You don't want to miss out on your chance to be the big winner!
Also, I want to remind you that Halloween images are 50% off for the entire month of September so be sure you pick up your favorites in the Dude Time Doodles store, during this special sale!
I hope you're enjoying the wonderful creativity along this hop! These are a very talented bunch of ladies and I'm so honored to have gotten to guest design with them for the month of August. I'm sad that this is my last card as guest designer here, but I have loved every minute of it!
With that said, here is my card for your viewing pleasure:
I had so much fun making this card. I've used Fanny Witch, from the Dude Time Doodles new releases. Fanny is colored with Promarkers. I found this fun Halloween web type cloth in a box of Halloween decorations when I cleaned out the attic. I had to save it, because I knew I'd eventually find a use for it! I cut a piece of it off and stretched it over the front of the card and then adhered it to the back, to make this funky textured overlay. (How's that for recycling?!) Then I used a couple scraps of Halloween paper over it, and attached the image and sentiment. The image, sentiment and paper scraps are mounted with foam mounted tape, for added dimension and 3D effect. I finished the card off by embellishing with some fun metal Halloween brads. My card uses the layout at Sketches By Carly.
I hope you enjoyed my card. It was so much fun to make! I love love love this Fanny witch image! So much fun to work with!
Now, hop on over to Linda's blog to see what she has up her sleeve! I just know she has a fabulous creation to show you!
