Splitcoast Stampers (SCS) is hosting a forum called Hope You Can Cling To. Its purpose is to generate cards (through challenges) to send to the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX to benefit patients being treated for breast cancer and their families. HYCCT Challenge #24 was to use a girl image and the color pink. I love my Suzi Blu girl stamps so out this one came. Her dress just had to be pink and I gave her a layered petticoat to add a little frill. I find it fun to put different stamp sets together and this card uses four different Unity sets. Deets can be found on my SCS Gallery, but I have to tell you that her skirt is actually a large corner stamp! I keep coming back to my Once Upon a Time DP by DCWV when using these girl stamps because it's so fairy tale inspiring.
For my What's On Your Workspace Wednesday friends, here's my desk after making this card and my craft closet close-up is evidence that I finally organized my Unity stamps (but, whoa, the weight on those shelves is making me look bad! Lol). I have an up-to-date notebook with all the images so now I can browse through it and know where to find the stamp I want. The desk is still chaos that only I can maneuver, but that's the way I roll!
Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Yeah what a messie crafty space. I love it.
Your card rock. Wonderful stamp.
so much stash on those shelves! They don't look like they could hold much more lol
It does look like your shelves are going to come crashing down on you. Love the card - and the fact that you used a background stamp for the skirt. What a great cause!

what a cute idea the layered skirt is, i love it. whoa, i think you need some reinforcements in your shelves (that's the architect in me talking!)
Cindy, what a busy desk. Those shelves certainly look full to burst but at least you'll be able to find what you want. Nice to see you have a little fur baby watching your crafting activities as well!! Best wishes, Kym xxx (WOYWW No 24)

Super card and I love the idea of a 'craft closet' - I wonder what stuff I can throw out to make more room for craft stuff! So much to see, thanks for sharing :-)

wow what a wonderfully creative desk !
love the shelves, they look like mine!
Didn't know they did SB stamps? Tell me more please. Love your busy desk and your organisation is superb. Thanks so much for sharing.
Great card Cindy - lovely way to use that corner! Love your space after finishing, so lovely to see how you work - I like that I can look at 100 or so desks over a week and on each one there's usually a phone within reach!
Fab card and a fab mess too - love it! Those shelves look like they could do with some help though, that's a serious bend in them! Thanks for the snoop round your space.
Love your card.
Your shelf looks ready to fall lol. YOur desk had me for ages whilst I looked at everything lol xx

Oh are they all Unity stamps on the shelf? Do you get the kit of the month or something? I really love their stuff but only have a couple of sets. Great card and a suitably creative desk to go right along with it!

The card is wonderful. I like the distress look and the frill for her skirt.
Hugs, Moy Yin #16
Yummy workspace you have going on there! It is amazing how much stuff is needed to make one card!
I love your card by the way! I just ordered myself a set of Suzi Blu stamps and can't wait!
Thanks for the peek!
I love it! But I think your shelves need a little reinforcing - tee hee! Sheena #99
WOW Cindy that is totally beautiful. Love your work space too. Kim #82
Uh oh - somebody's sold you bent wood!! Oh I geddit, its the sheer weight of stash (lucky you) which is causing the problem!!
Love the frilly lace petticoat on the card but gosh, that shelf is just groaning under the strain:) Elizabeth #51
Hi, well you have a lot of stuff on your desk so I can guess you are being in a creative mood. Shelves whoa, hope they don't bulge too much, more otherwise everything will topple off. Have fun. Hugs JO,xxx~88
oooh, I just swooned... LOVING your workspace.. lovely and busy :O))
I love your card-I have never heard of those stamps so will have to investigate. Weighed down shelves hope you rescue them before they crash! That's why I don't do shelves.

P.S your card is just gorgeous!! Love the gingham detail you have added to the dress! Hugs Juls
I loved this card the second I saw it on SCS! Gorgeous work of art :)
and i love seeing your desk, such beautiful chaos!
I noticed on your profile, you are in NJ, I am too!
oooo errrr, those shelves look a bit overpowered with stash! Love the card and the petticoat idea is so cute. Annette #4
Beautiful card! I love the idea of using a corner stamp as a skirt - very creative!
I'm glad you said something about the shelves, because I thought I was either seeing them through a fish eye lens, or they were severely challenged as to weight overload. Glad you got your stamps sorted, though. Sorry I'm late getting here, but I'm taking it slow and sure this week (#15).
hey Cindy - love the eay you used the SB stamp - are we friends inthe Academy? will look you up next time i 'go in'
Dx
Gorgeous card, I love the lace detail under her dress, clever idea!!
You look like you stamp hardcore, that desk is packed to say the least!! Hehe. Not much room for anything else..
And as for those shelves, damn they are sagging under all your stash!! You lucky thing to have as much!!

ohoo I love it, all your stuff just spread every where, ready to dive in and have fun, love the card and the one above this post too, fabulous!! Bit late, but never mind! Happy WOYWW!!

What a brilliant crafting space. Lots of mess equals lost of creativity in my book. Love it.
Hugs Lisa (90)
Wow that is one creative space, I hope those shelves haven't buckled under the weight by the time you are reading this!!
