A bit of Coney Island fun with 100 Proof Press and some simple Button Action

Happy Monday, folks! It is officially the last week before THANKSGIVING WEEK!!!! YAY!!!! And that also happens to mark the week before The Hubbums' birthday, too, making for LOTS of fun stuff coming up! I have two cards and a special treat to share with you...

Let's start with that treat so it doesn't get lost at the end of this post. You see, I recently got a visit from the Fairy Hobmother! Yup! For reals! She was granting wishes on a few blogs and I commented with my wish and she sent me an Amazon UK gift card to use toward my wish! She has granted some people fun new small appliances like a new toaster or a food processor! Soooo, here's the deal, if you include something along those lines that YOU are wishing for, she might visit you on your blog and grant your wish! I KNOW! And yes, it's for real - I already used my gift certificate and the item has shipped! I'm so excited!!!! So don't forget to leave your wish in your comment for a chance to win a visit from the Fairy Hobmother!

Coney Island Hey!


And this is my 100 Proof Press card for today! Isn't that Coney Island stamp just so much fun?! I love it!

I accented it with a bit of twine from The Twinery and a Flair accent from American Crafts.

And I told you I just couldn't stay away from that fabulous Random Fun Challenge over at Moxie Fab! I had to play with buttons for this fun Shine On! card.

So, what do I have to say to all of you, my fine friends, on the is Monday? Shine On! (And don't forget to leave your wish in the comments! Who knows! You might get an early Christmas present! YAY!)
