A lovely hAnglar card and some VERY exciting news from the Sweeties!

How I've managed to contain meself over the last few days I will never know. The wonderful Abi and Fi over at Sweet Stampin' have been working hard behind the scenes and there is a new look to the Sweet Stampin' Challenge blog - in more ways than one!  Now I'm going to keep you in suspense because the big reveal isn't until tomorrow, so hop on over here on Wednesday to see what I'm talking about.  You're going to like it!!

Now, I've actually managed to make a card (steps back in amazement!). Yes, I have been organised enough over the past couple of days to get my arty act together and make something and boy do I feel better for it!  I knew what I was going to do the minute I got this cute hAnglar stamp. He was such a dream to colour with the old Copics and I added liberal sprinklings of Glamour Dust to the moon and star. 



The papers are by K& Co - I thought the dark blue with gold dots would look a bit like stars and I'm quite happy with the way it turned out.  The ribbon was part of some candy sent to me by the lovely Jacque.



As well as the dotty paper I put some gold adhesive dots from Wild Orchid Crafts (no flowers in the sky, sadly!) onto a Marianne die.  Here's a little peak at the inside which I decorated with more K&Co paper and a die cut jotting space.




I'm entering this card in the Lovely hAnglar Only Challenge, which is "Dots".

Don't forget to visit Sweet Stampin' tomorrow - let us know what you think!

Hugs,

Tracey xx
