I totally forgot to post my card for the Circle and Scallop Die cut from Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps. This is an awesome die. The size is about 2.25" and is perfect for cards like the one I made....A 3x3. I normally don't make this size, but I wanted to give it a try.

For today I used the Butterfly die and stamp set.

There are some awesome new stamps that match the die-cut.

Stop by the blog and see the others!

Tomorrow I will be showcasing the Bird die and stamp set.... Can't wait for you to see it... GREAT stamps!

Prickley Pear and PK Glitz Magnetic Pad holder

When I saw this little clipboard at the Goodwill I just knew

what I'd do with it.

Look! How cute this is. I glittered up the

clip, it just needed a little sparkle.

and I had to add the roses that Jennifer

showed my how to make using a scallop

punch form Stampin' Up.
