From the step sister.....





Good day

What wonderful surprise I got when, Darlene from The Sisterhood of Crafters contacted me over this festive season to ask me if I'll be the stepsister for January. Darlene has been one of my icons in Blogland and to be part of this group of talented ladies for a month is such a privilege. This weeks challenge is out with the old and in with the new and I knew exactly what I wanted to do.
This is Katnis Sassy on fire from Sassy Studio Design and is this months digi for there progressive challenge with the twist of use folds. My designer papers are from Miss Empire from Kaisercraft. Love the bronze/copper foil dots and I complimented it with the glitter on her dress. So the old is the arch die from Sizzix, copper frame, basic cardstock, flowers and the new is the digi, paper and clock charm and on the edges of the DP I used a Spellbinder on the edge Shapeabilities.

I was inspired by the following Challenges which I enter:
Mema's Craft January Challenge - Bingo - Digi, Flowers, Charm, Free(glitter) 2nd entry
Crafts4Eternity R#157 - Very vintage
Come and Get it  - Something New
Robyn Fetish #193 - Use a digi
Craft your Passion #195 - Fancy Borders
Pile it on #1 - Just because
Sassy Studio Design #210 - Time after Time
Card and Scrap #67 - Use Flowers


Come over and join me with the Sisters in this challenge of out with the old and in with the new!
Hugs from Africa

WOW What a fabulous creation Olga! LOVE the fancy fold to go along with this Sassy lady! Great coloring & design! I (we) are SO HAPPY to have you as a Step Sister this month ... you've certainly 'done us proud!'
I know it's summertime there in Africa since it's wintertime here in the NE USA ... can I send some of this COLD to you? LOL! It is a mere 8 degrees here and that's warm compared to the past few days when it was below zero! Brrrr!
Anyways ... thanks for doing such a lovely creation ... looking forward to seeing what you do next!
Hugs from Ohio!
