Hi Friends! Thanks so much for the sweet comment on my Halloween banner that I made for the Friends of Waltzingmouse Stamps September Blog Waltz.

Thank You Card

Thanks to all of for the kind comments & interest in my blog! :)
T.G.I.F.! I am sooo happy that the weekend is here! :) Time for some scrappin' & stampin' FUN! I made this thank you card for my friend Kathy. Kathy did a HUGE favor for me at work & covered my call shift last Friday night, so I could go to Jewel's concert! :) Jewel was AMAZING! My sketch inspiration came from Kazan's Sketch 31 over at 2 Sketches 4 You & the color inspiration came from Splitcoast's Color Challenge CC228, where we had to use SU Pretty in Pink, Really Rust & Not Quite Navy. I referred to Dawn McVey's Vintage-y Distressed Flowers Tutorial when I created my flowers. If you would like to see many more beautiful creations, click on any one of these blogs, sit back & enjoy! :) You know I love to hear from you so tell me what you think?!

A Beautiful Thing Card

Hi Girls! I am soooo glad that my family is almost done "Park Hopping." Tomorrow, we will be visiting Shamu & all the other Marine life at Sea World. We had a great day today, relaxing & hanging around "home". The BIG adventure of the day, was going out to lunch, then my husband treated me to a trip to a SCRAPBOOK STORE! :) My step kids found a place to sit & play their video games. While they sat patiently waiting, my husband & I browsed around the store. I found

some treasures! :) I hope to make a card tomorrow using a new Unity stamp set I bought. :) Tonight, I had a chance to play again with my stamping goodies! That is what I call a vacation! :) I made this card as my entry for TWO challenges, the CPS118 & RSCC8. (I do not have PTI Raspberry Fizz or SU Pink Passion, so I substituted Pixie Pink). If you have a chance, I would recommend visiting both of these websites for some inspiration! Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog and browse. Please feel free to leave a comment! :) Be Sweet! Until next time...
