We have our winner!!

Thank you guys SO much for commenting and entering for my blog candy. It made me smile so much hearing what made you guys smile! I decided to take everything you guys wrote, and put it into wordle. Here is our smiley collage:
Isn’t it wonderful?! Sometimes I get sucked into everyday life and forget to smile about all the wonderful things that are around me. I think I might look back at this collage to make sure that I remember to smile every day!

So, I decided to pick a winner old school and write everyone’s names on a piece of paper. I put all the little pieces into a bag, and to really randomize it, I let my dog pick a piece of paper out! He loves to eat paper, so we put a smile on his face too!

Here he is chewing on the paper that I had to promptly remove from his mouth so I could tell who won.
And the winner is ……….
I saw on her blog that she coaches color guard which made this Drum Corps alum very happy! 🙂
Please email me at lawnfawncards at gmail dot com with your snail mail address, and I will get your prize out to you!
Congratulations to Amber!! And thank you all for commenting! 
I hope to have blog candy again sometime in the future because it is so fun to give stuff away!
I also have a fun announcement that I will make tomorrow! 🙂
Thank you so much for visiting!

Hello!!
I am stuck here at work much longer than I thought I would be! Ack! Ironically I am cutting paper at my non-paper related job. It is the worst paper cutter EVER too. 
I will pick a winner tonight when I finally get home! I am going old fashioned. Picking from a hat! I can’t wait to pick a winner!!
See you guys back here soon! 🙂
Thank you so much for visiting!

Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #12 & Thinking Inking week 6

**Don’t forget to enter for my blog candy here! You have two more hours!** 🙂 🙂 🙂
Another color challenge! This one was SO hard! Ack!!

Here is my card!
The bird image is from the Friendly Forest Scrap Pack. I cut it out of a 12×12 sheet. I also used my new EK Success punch. I love it!
I used some techniques from Thinking Inking Week 6. I put liquid pearls and then tapped the back so they didn’t look like Hershey’s Kisses. It was magical! What a great technique! I covered the bird in diamond Stickles to accent him, too.
I love these ribbon slides from Spellbinders, and I don’t use them enough! 

[Supplies]
Paper: Papertrey Ink (spring moss, raspberry fizz), ColorBok Forest Friends Scrap Pack, Random Michael’s paper (cream)
Ink: Versamark, Papertrey Ink (raspberry fizz)
Stamps: Hero Arts (dots and flowers, everyday sayings)
Etc: random ribbon, Ranger clear embossing powder, liquid pearls, diamond Stickles, Spellbinders ribbon slide die, EK Success embossed curve border punch

Have an amazing day,
