Hello! Thanks for coming back! I know that you think I fell off the planet...worse: The H1N1 virus struck! Between Strep throat and the "swine flu" we have been a bunch of sickies around here. I am glad to say that after nearly 2 weeks we are on the upswing to feeling better. Throw in that I had a throbbing tooth too and I was a very unhappy mommy! Needless to say, I was not feeling very creative most of the past 2 weeks. I also apologize for not having a new3 Clovers challenge up last week. I wasn't up to doing the big post. I also wanted to give the space to focus on little Henry and his family, as well as raising money for his memorial. I cannot imagine how devastating it is to lose a child. I don't want to imagine it. It is just so heartbreaking to think of. Pink Cast Studio has raised over a $1000 for Henry's memorial. If you still have not purchased an image you have until the end of the week.

I did perk up for a few hours last weekend and made a couple projects for today's Pink Cat Studio's digi release. Oh. My. Goodness! Melissa has oodles of fabby new digi images for you this week! My absolute fave is the one on the card above...little kissing penguins! Too sweet!! The penguins kissing idea was submitted by Nancy Davis in the ongoing PCS idea contest. So she got this image for free! You can submit your digi ideas and read about the deets HERE.

Nest up I made a candle sleeve with this Fun Santa! I don't know why, but he makes me giggle!
The thing I like about making these candle sleeves are they are quick and easy...but look nice. If you want to burn the candle, the sleeve can be slipped off.
Here are the deets for the candle:
