Color challenge at SP & Company - I'm guest blogging today!

hey hey hey!

it's late, but it's been a NUTTY day, and i am so pleased that things are moving along so well for the new house.  settlement is scheduled for MAY 29th, and i couldn't be more excited!  not only that, but we showed our condo to a lady last night, and she came back tonight with her son, and she asked us to call her as soon as the house is listed and she wants to make us an offer.  we disclosed our asking price, and they said it's well within their price range, so it sounds like a match made in heaven!

anywho, today there's a brand new color challenge at SP & Company, and i showed you a little Skating Girl a couple of weeks ago, and today i have another sweet little set to share.  this is the Best Mom Ever set (the image and sentiment come from the set, and there are SIX sentiments in total!):

 

here's a close-up of "Mom", colored this time in Copics
(and honestly, i liked how ALL of it came out, except for her hair!):

 

the SP & Company stamps are seriously wonderful - they stamp boldly and cleanly, and the impression is consistently even.  i kinda seriously love 'em.  and OH MY GOOMIE, Sami has a slew of seriously oss new sets from Gill Roberts (like this set and Skating Girl), but wait until you see what's coming soon!  the next couple of months are HUGE, and you'll want to set aside a few dollars for some shopping.  :)

are you as obsessed with wood veneer as i am?  MMMMM:

and if you happen to see any more of those Heidi Swapp mirrors, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
i have been hanging onto mine for dear life and the packages are nearly empty.  they're dreamy!

okay.  SO.  challenge!  CLICK HERE for all the deets - it's a color challenge, so we're looking for RED, PINK and GREY on your creations.  you have until May 31st to enter, you must use at least ONE SP & Company product on your creation (and you really should check out the shop...  there are also freebies HERE), and you could win a nifty $10 to spend on pretties at SP & Company on anything you'd like!  WOOT!  (check out the DIES...  they're on sale, and they're UH-MAY-ZING.  just sayin'!)
