Dino-mite!

Happy New Year! Today is day one of our new release blog hop for Sweet n' Sassy Stamps! Woot! All of the DT girls are offering blog candy (me included, stop back tomorrow for that!) and the winners will be announced tomorrow night during the release party on the SNSS forum.

The card you see here is made with the new Dino-Mite set (this and others will be available after tomorrow nights release party). Isn't it such a cute set? I drew in the ground, but the rest of what you see is all from the set. I popped the trees up on dimensionals, and cut the sentiment out in a funky shape to go with the prehistoric theme. :) The ground has stardust stickles on it for texture. Here is a close up of the dimensionals:

Now click on over to my sidebar and scroll down to the bit about the BLOG HOP, and start hoppin'! All of the girls are offering candy, and super cute sneak peeks of all the new sets. Be sure to stop back bright and early tomorrow for candy here as well (I saw bright and early, because the whole entry period will last less than one full day!).

I also wanted to share this super cool idea I was introduced to on my friend Kate's blog, about a New Year's resolution, of sorts. It's called One Little Word, and basically is a word that you choose to epitomize you in 2009. Kate's word is Balance. I've thought about this all day, and have decided that my word is:

I will believe.... in myself, in my talent, in the future, that this too (insert current dilemma here) really shall pass. That everything has a purpose, and that I have the strength and the stamina to get through anything. My first idea for a word was simply "be", but I think I like this better. I will not only be, I will believe. If you decide to take part in this, leave me a comment. I'd love to know what your word is and the reasoning behind it.

Enjoy the YEAR!
