CHA and Challenges!

Thought I should tell you all a little about my trip to CHA.  I flew to Anaheim, and met up with some of my Splitcoast friends--Daiseyfreak, Yoorah, LJ, Babitoons, Mrs. S, and Bugaboo's DT member--Rae Anne.  What a wonderful time we had--shopping, doing make-n-takes, socializing, going out for dinner, meeting other SCS people, and even visiting Disneyland.  I should confess that my luggage was considerably heavier coming home than it was going.  If you ever get the chance--go!  It was great fun.

Now, on to challenges.  Today I made a really cute easel card.  Our DT coordinator (Tammy) introduced me to easel cards.  I thought they were cute!  At CHA, I made one as a make-n-take, and I liked them even more.  Today, when I made this one, I can now say that I love them!  Cute, easy, and fun to do--what more can you ask for!  I especially like these easel cards because they will fold flat for mailing, or sit upright for showing.  The puppy in a basket image that I used is one of the free stamps offered this week (through 1/29) by http://www.bugaboostamps.com/.  I used Papertrey cardstock, button, and designer paper, colored with copics, added heart-shaped red rhinestones and red rick rack from my stash.  I used an EK Success scallop punch, and computer generated a sentiment (puppy love) that I punched with a SU punch.  After the posting of this card, I will show you the challenges that I am entering this card in:
