Warm and Cozy Wishes

Are you as shocked as I am that it is November 1st already.  Crazy!  The other day I won a $25.00 gift certificate to Newton's Nook.  Have you every shopped this company??  I had not.  Wowzers!  They have some super adorable stamp sets.  It took me a long time to make a decision how to spend the money.  I also found out they have a blog and a challenge.  They also have several free digital images so everyone can play along in the challenges or if you are like me and just placed your order and have to wait for your stamps to arrive you can still play.  This challenge is Cozy Plaids. I don't have many plaid paper so my choices were very limited but this sure was fun to color up and put together.  I would love to see you hop on over and check them out you won't be disappointed and grab your plaid paper and join in the challenge fun.
