Happy New Year with an Authentique Challenge Card!

I can't believe that it has been 6 months since I have posted.  No I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, I just got pregnant.  I wasn't doing much crafting over the summer but now that the baby is due to arrive any day I have been getting in as much time as possible.  I am currently in love with Authentique Paper!! 

I have been having some fun with their December challenge and in order to make them all count so get ready for lots of posts with some really cute cards! 

Here is the link to the challenge! Authentique

Here is the sketch challenge (they have a scrapbook lay out too but I only do cards)

Here is one of my cards

This paper and sentiment is from the Gathering collection.  I used some misc. bling and some PTI ribbon to finish it off.  

I love this saying and this is a great way to ring in the new year! 

Happy 2012 to each and every one of you!
