Happy Monday! I hope you all enjoyed your weekends, mine was lovely. A little bit of crafting and cooking - you just can't go wrong!
First off, I just want to take a second to say thanks to the ladies over at Create with Connie and Mary for choosing my card (you can see it HERE) as a Top 3 pick for their colour challenge last week. Thanks!
Today I got together for lunch with a couple of crafty friends - so much fun as always. After lunch, we got down to a little crafting (of course!!!). Even though tomorrow is the first full day of fall, I found myself still thinking about summer blooms today. Fall is my favourite time of year but today I was really feeling the flowers (again...). And, it helped that I really wanted to colour with Stampin' Up!'s Blendabilities and what better to colour than their Blended Bloom stamp?!?!
As per normal, I decided to take part and be inspired by a couple of challenges:
1. Pals Paper Arts
This week is a sketch challenge:
2. Seize the Birthday
This week I chose to forego the "Sweet Treats - Toppings" option and stick to an "Anything Goes" card.
And here is my creation:
This is the first time that I have used the new 1/4" Cotton Ribbon and I LOVE it! It is so easy to work with and so nice and soft on your hands. Just lovely!!
