My FAVE Sassy Cheryl Card of 2013 . . .

Hap-hap-happy Holidays to you all!! In case you're counting, Christmas Eve is one week from TODAY! Officially time to panic!! Hmmmm . . . let's see . . . my holiday baking is all done . . . and the Christmas tree is now up and decorated (as of last evening)! But . . . I still have cards to address and mail . . . and presents to buy and wrap and mail! Plenty of time, right? hehe!! Sooooo . . . before I tackle those unfinished holiday tasks, I wanted to let you all know about today's challenge over at Sassy Cheryl's Challenge Blog!

OK . . . so, here's the deal . .  . our challenge for the next TWO WEEKS is for each of us to take a look at all the Sassy Cheryl cards and projects we've created in 2013 . . . and then select a FAVORITE!! What the what?! How do I choose just ONE? I love each and every one of my Sassy Cheryl projects!! This card, though, is one of my faves! It was originally posted here on 2/26/13.

I'd been playing a bit with Distress Inks and thought this adorable "Maddie" image would be perfect for that week's "Vintage" theme! I just love that adorable hat!! Here's a close-up . . .

This image is called "Beauty in the Making" and is available HERE in Sassy Cheryl's online store! Here's a side-ish view . . .
