Prettie Pastel Wednesday

I had to seriously resist the urge to say "NOT!" LOL! Today's challenge came from my lovely friend and cruising cabinmate, Charmaine! We were to use pastels - you know those chalky things? Well, first of all when I moved my stamping room from downstairs in the laundry room to upstairs the pastels were like the 1 thing I didn't bring up - why? I never use them! I just never got very good with them. So I am awfully excited to see the fabulous creations that I know the Prettie Girls came up with today - hoping they can give me some tips!! ;) Be sure to visit their blogs!! Charmaine Ikach, Jana Weaver, Jillian Winters, Danielle Lounds, Jodi Collins, Jackie Rakoski, Jackie Pedro, Jessica Diedrich, Christi Thorsen, Frances Byrne.

Ok, I decided to use Bunny Hop Sophia which is the Stamp of the Month Club stamp for February, which means if you are a member or sign up before January 31st you will receive this stamp in February roughly a month before she is released to the general public. Sorry for the poor lighting in the photo, the colors seem to be a bit off.

I used Julee's Mojo Monday sketch for this week - it's been soooooooo long since I've done a Mojo sketch - they are always fab and they have their own blog now!! :)

Signing off . . . busy day ahead! But don't forget to visit the other girls and remember, tomorrow starts the big 2nd Anniversary Celebration at Paper Pretties!
