CCDivas - New Diva and Challenge #10

Hi Divas,
Meet Kimberly – our newest Diva.  She will be joining our Fall/Thanksgiving exchange and Christmas exchange this year.
Kimberly often receives my email with her last name beginning with “Mon” – I even copy her instead of me J.
She has been with FedEx for many years – 16, I think.  She starting out in a service center in the south then moved to a couple of service centers in CA then to the IT office here in COS.  She is married to Mike and has a daughter here in COS.  She has two children by marriage that live in CA – daughter and a son.  She also has two dogs and two cats here in COS.
Things that remind me of Kimberly - a really big heart, cherry blossoms and anything Halloween.
I moved here and was here barely a week when she invited me to a Stampin Up party and I have been hooked ever since.

Challenge # 10 - Thanksgiving – begins September 1st and wraps up October 15th
Challenge # 11 - Christmas – begins October 16th and wraps up December 1st

Rules of engagement
We have agreed to design one card using anything we want – paper, punches, stamps and the themes determined each month.
We recreate the card for the number of Divas - currently 8 Divas.
No other rules.  The card can be Masculine or Feminine.  You can pick any colors for your card.  They can be extravagant or simple and elegant. 

I can’t wait to see what you will create.

Happy Crafting,
Michelle

PS - The next challenge will begin in January to give everyone a break or rather more time for all the other holiday events – shopping, cookies, and parties.
We should be ready for some additional rules, like add a brad or a button. 

Current Divas
Marcy Veit – new Stampin UP demonstrator
Laura Brown – x-fedex
Vita Kuhfahl – just got a new kitten too
Colleen – x-fedex
Janet – Linda’s sister

VLM Challenge 070112 - Red, White and Blue

VLM Challenge 7-1-2012 Happy B-day America

VLM Challenge 070112  Red White and Blue challenge.  I happened to use a sketch too.  This could be a birthday or thank you card, it isn't necessarilty a 4th of July card.  I will add a sentiment once I am ready to use it.  Likely from the itty bitty banners set.
