Southern Scraps

It's World Card Making Day. I really need a holiday like this. LOL, like I really need an excuse to make a card or craft. I do need the push to start those Christmas cards. I hope to make some cards to share here with you later today, but hubby says we are painting and doing some house projects, so we'll see what happens. While you're here browse around- I do have plenty of cards posted. Maybe something will inspire you. And... to celebrate I have a little "candy". Just leave me a comment to let me know you visited. You have until Sunday October 3 at  8:00 p.m.  Spread the word too- twitter, facebook, your blog, wherever. I'm also giving away a set of four handmade cards. You can enter to win that HERE . (Comment on this post for the above candy only.)

I'm back to share the fruits of my labor thus far. I've got to take a break and cook supper, but I hope to do a little more before bedtime. I've gotten a few cards done today and checked in on some blog candy, challenges, and such. I hope you've gotten a chance to play and enter some contests for prizes and I hope you win! I made this card today for the sketch challenge at Splitcoaststampers. Here's the sketch. I made this one for this week's sketch at 2Sketches4U . I just discovered this blog this week and I love it. I had one of the tags leftover from a few years back. I made another one to go with it for the card. I did some stitching and chalking. I wish I always had time to put more into cards like this. Lastly, here's a card I will be sending to Mission Soldier Support .

It's here- World Card Making Day! What is it? A day for paper crafters and card makers to unite and officially kickoff Christmas card making. Yep, Christmas will be here before you know it. Visit the World Card Making Day website to learn more and find ways to celebrate. I'll be working on my Christmas cards and some for Mission Soldier Support ! Here's one I'll be adding to the shop a little later-
