Hi sweet crafty friends! When you read this, I will be in Anaheim at the CHA Convention! I went last year and had the BEST TIME EVER! I'm SO lucky to be able to go this year again with Taylor! Here is a link to my wrap up post from last year's CHA with a video of my favorite things! This time I won't feel like a newbie and I will relax and have even more fun! A bunch of us from the Baker's Dozen Design Team are going with Taylor to pick out new products for her store! Lots of pretty things for kits and individual sale. CHA is also such a great time to meet up with bloggy friends and get inspired by all the creativity out there. I'm so excited! Can you tell? LOL.
Last year I posted blog updates at night on my iPad. Oy. That was such a pain and took forever. I can't figure out why Typepad doesn't work on iDevices... So this year, what I thought I would do, is post updates and photos throughout the weekend on my FACEBOOK PAGE. That way, if you like (pun intended), you can get real time updates and product sneaks and feel like you're right there with me! How does that sound? If you look on my left blog sidebar, you'll see the link to A Blog Called Wanda facebook page! Click there and join me at CHA!
In honor of CHA, and spending time with the lovely Taylor, I'm posting a Moka Wanda card today! Remember her? Crafty girl, named after me! :-) Seems fitting for this post!
I used a bunch of crafty stamp sets for this card! Here they are: Crafty Cuppie, Moka Wanda, and Crafty Expressions! The paper is the Lavender pad from MME. The two dies used are the Banner Stacklets 1 and the Pennant Border Die!
Now, Moka Wanda usually has a heat gun in her hand! I cut out the little ink pad from the other set and put that in her hand instead! I love that all these crafty sets go together. The circular saying at the top is from yet another set. Don't be afraid to get all your sets out and see what works together. That's a big part of the fun with these stamps! I love putting all kinds of things together. Give that a try!
Here are my supplies...
And my Copic colors....
I got this great card layout from one of Jodi's cards in our TE gallers! I made it my own by adding the little circle part here. I really do {heart} stamping!
I hope you have a fabulous day! Don't forget to like my page on facebook to follow along with me at CHA! Mwah! See ya right here when I get home!
Love the card Wanda and I'll definitely be checking FB! Thanks!

Beautiful card, Wanda, and I am just a 'wee' bit jealous that you're at CHA and I'm not ;) Regardless, I hope you have a wonderful time, and I can't wait to see all of the pics :D
