Hey there, Cupcake!!! (and my TGF Blog Candy Winner!!!)

Hi again!!! 

If you're here to see my Sparkle Creations Karber Preview, please scroll down, 

thank you :) 

It's time for another Friday Spy Day at The Greeting Farm Challenge Blog today!!! 

This week, we are case-ing Danielle Daws' sweet Cupcake Anya card found HERE!!! 

I really need to catch up on my Birthday cards! So I thought why not go with a similar layout and use some cupcakes on my card and came up with this... 

Oh my! You wouldn't believe how much I still have of this TGF designer paper!!! Love it so much! and to think that I parted with half of my stack and still have so much more, lol! That's what true hording is all about, right?! ha!!! 

I also used Birthday Anya and colored her with my Copics; and I forgot where this transparent doily thingy came from - some sort of kit I received last year, ooops, don't remember, lol! Old age!!! eeek! 

On that note, hee hee!!!... 

It's time for me to announce who my TGF Clear Stamp Sets winner is... 

Congratulations to...  #27 Mimi 

Yay!!! Please email me (TheBumbleGirl at Rocketmail.com) 

your address so I can get these stamps out to you  :) 

Thank you to ALL who entered!!! 

I have another Blog Candy that will be posted tomorrow, 12/10 at Noon EST!!!

My family and I had a wonderful day in Manhattan today, even with all the traffic we were stuck in trying to get in and then out, lol! We saw the beautiful Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall and had dinner at Mars 2112! The perfect place for the kiddos! and due to the rain, we were only able to drive by the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! We didn't want to miss a live viewing of it no matter what ;) 

Pics to come soon! Going to go snuggle up and watch 'How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' - one of my most fave girlie movies, and then heading off to bed! I'll be back tomorrow with a late post!
