Valentine Bear

This is January's My Pink Stamper Design post! The challenge is Pink & Love and the designers are using sentiments from 1 of 2 My Pink Stamper stampsets...Which I just have to say again I really do LOVE...
I personally have lots of different peel and stick stamps and there is just the easiest get-my-stamped-image thing with MPS Stamps that is super fabulous! Do you like my technical stamp talk? LOL!
The stamps I am working with is the Happiest Moments set, great for celebrations, And because we are so close to Valentines I decided to use the Happy Valentine's Day along with some FUN elements! Who doesn't LOVE a PINK feather boa??? I hope you like it!

I discovered the Cricut and subsequently Card Crafting last year and started my blog March 6, 2010! My second post was a submission to the FIRST MPS Design team and I made it into her gallery but not the design team :( I was sad but felt like I had room to grow and thought I will definitely try again! Guess what trying again worked!

I am annoy your teenager with hearing about my “official MPS designer status”, hug your hubby yelling “I am a My Pink Stamper Designer”, dance with your dog happy!!

On to the crafty-goodness!
I used 2 brand new to me cartridges for this cutie! AND I was totally inspired by my dancer {daughter} and by My Pink Stamper and my Pink Flamingo Dancer was born. LOL I think she’s just darling! I used a “trim-stlye” ribbon from Joann’s for her cute tu tu…I am so pleased with her I hope you all like her too! Thank you for stopping by enjoy the HOP!
