Hello there,
How is your day going? I hope this is a good week for you, and you can keep up with the days flying by!!!
The mid-month reveal is up over at STUCK?! SKETCHES and it is another fabulous sketch.  But a big thank you must go to the wonderful sponsors who make each challenge more fun by their fantastic prizes!!

A big thank you goes out to Lindy's Stamp Gang, for sponsoring this challenge, they are offering a $25.00 gift certificate to their online shop to one lucky participant!

Lindy's luscious luster is all uniquely two-toned! With vibrant shimmery sprays, flat sprays, vintage sprays, embossing powder and lots more! Lindy’s Stamp Gang is the creative” baby” of Lindy Plakinger. She passed away in 2008 after bravely battling illness. She was a self-made cartoonist, loved drawing, crafting, designing new products, and creating her funny cartoon characters! One of her greatest joys was traveling to stamping and scrapbooking conventions across the US, demo-ing to her heart’s content with her sister, and giggle partner, Vicki! Lindy’s Stamp Gang will continue, as was her hope, and dream. Her husband and daughter have taken over the company keeping her creativity alive. Tracey, (her daughter), has always been a “jar filler” in the background of Lindy’s Stamp Gang, but is now trying to fill some incredible shoes!

The BIG Challenge for KRAFT+ this month!

Hello there,
Yes a pinch and punch for this new month... EEK!! November... already...

So the new challenge for KRAFT+ is a big one!!! Literally!!  It is...
To think BIG!!!

There is lots of inspiration for this challenge from all the designers which you can check out..On the BLOG HERE!!!!  

and my take..

Some closer views..

Can you guess what is BIG on my page yet!!??

The first thing that came to me when I saw this months challenge was that song that comes on TV.. "From little things big things grow.."  and I went with that..

My Dd got a puppy that was very cute when he was little, but he grew soooo BIG!!  So I have used a photo when he was little ... and another photo when he was all grown up... into a BIG dog!!

But he was a really lovely dog!!

Thanks for coming on by, the days and months are flying by, so I do appreciate you coming by.. and thanks for the lovely comments too...
