Hi everyone, I haven't been around lately and the reason why is, I have a new home on the web. Please join me at my new address:
Altered Scraps
I will be uploading lots of pics of projects over the next few days, so please bear with me. Thank goodness my web guy is in-house (hubby). I never have been so confused than I have been lately while working on this new site. There is still some changes happening over there, but please visit often.

Blog Hop day 3
I want to start by saying THANK YOU to everyone who left comments. I truly appreciate it, you have no idea how much. Be sure to come by and visit tomorrow, I have more cards to show you.
My daughter made the UCA All American Cheer Squad and has an opportunity to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade in Houston, TX. I have been busy making cards and selling packs of them 10 for $20. All of the profits go to her for fundraising and she had quite a few family members order the packs. But, thankfully I am all caught up and even have a few extra packs on stand-by. Tomorrow I will be sharing pics of some of the cards.
Now, on to the project for today. Feel free to email or post a comment if you have any questions. I read each and every one of them.

Another Glitter Queens Blog Hop
WOW!! Has it really been a month since the last one? And where have I been? I am so sorry, I guess I need to put it on my calendar everyday so I don't remember at 11pm, then forget again in the morning.
If you are following in order, you have just come from Candice's blog, great projects right? I decided to use the Doily background stamp, I LOVE IT and it is turing into my new favorite.
After my post is a list of all the Glitter Queens in the blog hop, just in case you get lost along the way. Make sure to join us this week as we celebrate all things fall.

I will draw the winners tomorrow in the morning. Thanks again and I hope you accept my apology.

I have had fun learning MDS, and really it is so simple. I hope you like todays project and I promise I will make up for no Gently Falling Stamp Set project tomorrow.
Don't forget to leave a comment today for blog candy at the end of the week. I am thinking the blog candy will be a few fun things from the Spice Cake Product Suite!!! Also, for every $50 spent in my online store, enter to win a Clear Mount Gently Falling Stamp Set.
