New Year Sparkle with The Crafty Pad!

Good evening crafty friends, I hope you have all had a great weekend.

Today  I am happy to announce that  

The Crafty Pad Challenge Blog  

is making the return from the Christmas break, and are now back every Sunday with challenges.  I hope you can all join us and play along as we would love to see you!

We thought we would kick our first challenge of the New Year with a bang with some

#153 - NEW YEAR SPARKLE!

(Glitter, gems anything dazzling and shiny)

We all know girls love their shiny things, diamonds and bling, so I am sure you will all find this challenge easy peasy!

Mrs Clause was ever so nice to me and stuffed my stocking full of new bling, flowers and assortments and I just could not help myself with getting the bling and glitter on while playing with the gorgeous CraftyPad new release ‘Lulu Birthday cake image’.  (There is colored and uncolored images available too!)

 

Now the new home is all settled in it has been great to get back in the craft-room and play!  I paper pierced Lulu today, kept with my traditional style of distressed and had a great time making some handmade flowers that I could not resist sprucing up with a touch of glitter flecks, kindy glitz and of course ... some BLING!

This week we are being sponsored by the lovely
